Problems
It's not clear to me what JOD means by "(for Maⁿȼiñga ha)" on the first example. In modern usage this would be the female speech equivalent, but I think the use of ha/ho was different in 19th century.

Are translations of examples correct?
Added/modified by: Catherine Rudin on 2016-08-25 17:05:00
What is the plus sign after the examples? Does this mean a special length or pitch accent?
