;;; Onondaga
;;
;; There are three main orthographies for Onondaga in contemporary use:
;; the community orthography used at Six Nations of the Grand River, the
;; community orthography used at Onondaga Nation in New York, and the
;; orthography used by Hanni Woodbury in her 2003 dictionary (see
;; below). The latter is included because of its adoption in academia
;; and also by some contemporary second-language learners.
;; Additionally, Woodbury's dictionary provides a helpful description of
;; the community orthographies that is still applicable today.
;;
;; The differences between the orthographies are small, involving
;; representation of nasal vowels (ęand ǫat Six Nations of the Grand
;; River, eñ and oñ at Onondaga in New York, and ęand ųfollowing
;; Woodbury's dictionary), the low front rounded vowel (äat Six Nations
;; and Onondaga Nation and æ following Woodbury), vowel length (:
;; [colon] after a vowel in community orthographies and · [middle dot]
;; following Woodbury), and glottal stops (’ [right single quotation
;; mark] in community orthographies and ʔ [latin letter glottal stop]
;; following Woodbury). The input method here aims to accommodate all
;; three of these orthographies.
;;
