Pointed Text Example of ᓱᖽᐧᖿ / Siksika (Blackfoot)

An example of a pointed text which marks long vowels and glottal stops. Note that your browser may wrap in such a way that a word is cut off at the end of a line, and continued on the next – my version of Explorer wraps oddly, my Netscape does not.
