kh

Mk-a-tah-mish-o-kh-kaik, the Black Hawk; in his war dress and paint.

The scribes, being acquainted with the graph st for t, ht (see KH 249 note), mechanically substituted the latter here.

The most striking feature in it is the regular substitution of kh for s.

Ch is always to be sounded as in church, g is always hard; y always represents a consonant; whilst kh and gh stand for gutturals.

For the most part it is bta-kh grass (at), very suitable for horses.
