Spelling East Cree (Southern) – Syllabic Finals

ᒃ and ᒄ at the end of a word

Only a small number of words end in ᒃ; most words end in ᒄ.

You must pay attention to ᒄ and ᒃ at the end of verbs.

For most words ending in ᒄ be careful to write ᐱ, ᑎ, ᔑ, ᓂ and not ᐳ, ᑐ, ᔓ, ᓄ before final ᒄ.

Certain words, however, use ᐸ, instead of ᐱ in the Southern dialect.
