Note:  The …ᑐᒉ… sequence of the dubitative inflexion is almost always contracted to …ᑦᒉ… in everyday speech. Additionally, forms where the subject is a 4th person are generally difficult for most Cree-speakers to produce, including myself, and were elicited with much difficulty from other fluent speakers. Forms involving a 4th person subject and further obviative persons were unknown to me and other Cree-speakers whom I consulted.
