Is there a typo in the names for OL CHIKI? 1C78 ᱸ OL CHIKI MU TTUDDAG 1C79 ᱹ OL CHIKI GAAHLAA TTUDDAAG 1C7A ᱺ OL CHIKI MU-GAAHLAA TTUDDAAG Should U+1C78 be TTUDDAAG like 1C79 and 1C7A? N2984.PDF also shows TTUDDAG for 1C78. Searching the file N2984.PDF shows five instances of "TTUDDAG" and eleven instances of "TTUDDAAG". The name of U+1C79 is OL CHIKI GAAHLAA TTUDDAAG, but in the text it also appears as both GAAHLAA TTUDDAAG and as GAAHLAA TTUDDAG. Quoting from N2984.PDF, "The vowel modifier <©> GAAHLAA TTUDDAAG 1C79 (åè©ñéè© §ô†è©å) ga˘hla˘ t.ud. a˘g [g´hl´Tu∂´k’] follows ä 1C5A a, è 1C5F a¯ , and û 1C6F e. In the sources consulted, I have found all three: ä© o˘ [O] , è© a˘ [´] , and û© e˘ [E] ." Well, copy/pasting didn't work out so well, but it appears, based on the Ol Chiki words in the text, that U+1C78 should be named OL CHIKI MU TTUDDAAG. Best regards, James Kass P.S.: Re-typing the above quotation gives us: “The vowel modifier <ᱹ> GAAHLAA TTUDDAAG 1C79 (ᱜᱟᱹᱦᱞᱟᱹ ᱴᱩᱰᱟᱹᱜ) găhlă ṭuḍăg [ɡəhlə ʈuɖəkʼ] follows ᱚ 1C5A a, ᱟ 1C5F ā, and ᱯ 1C6F e. In the sources consulted, I have found all three: ᱚᱹ ŏ [ɔ] , ᱟᱹ ă [ə] , and ᱮᱹ ĕ [ɛ] .” (Note that 1C6F in the quoted paragraph and its associated glyph should probably be U+1C6E ᱮ OL CHIKI LETTER LE.)
