the same collection. The meanings are largely from Trumbull, _op. cit._

[302] In the Dakota dialects 10 is expressed, as here, by a word signifying
that the fingers, which have been bent down in counting, are now
straightened out.

[304] Boas, _Sixth Report B.A.A.S._, 1890. Reprint, p. 117. Dr. Boas does
not give the meanings assigned to 7 and 8, but merely states that they are
derived from 2 and 3.
[305] _Op. cit._, p. 117. The derivations for 6 and 7 are obvious, but the
meanings are conjectural.
[306] Boas, _Sixth Report B.A.A.S._, 1889. Reprint, pp. 158, 160. The
meanings assigned to the Tsimshian 8 and to Bilqula 6 to 8 are conjectural.

[319] Mueller, _Sprachwissenschaft_, II. i. p. 395. I can only guess at the
meanings of 6 to 9. They are obviously circumlocutions for 5-1, 5-2, etc.
