Several of the etymologies in this lesson are derived from Dr. David Pentland's dissertation, "Algonquian Historical Phonology" (Pentland, 1979), to which I have applied the practical orthography from The Lenape Talking Dictionary website (www.talk-lenape.org). Academic viewers are encouraged to refer to Dr. Pentland's work for the original phonemic representations.
