English: A secondary form of the Great Lakes Algonquian syllabic system used for writing Meskwaki (Fox), Sauk, Kickapoo, and several other related languages in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The primary system was apparently adapted from Latin cursive. Jones reports that this modified version was used for covert purposes; in it, the vowels are replaced with differently positioned dots and spaces. The top row represents vowel sounds without a consonant pairing. The phonemes represented are roughly /a/, /e/, /i/, and /o/ (respectively; here, /a/ is represented as a space or null). Each subsequent row represents the same vowel sound paired with an initial consonant. Those consonants, in order, roughly correspond to /p/, /t/, /s/, /š/, /č/, /y/, /w/, /m/, /n/, /k/, and /kw/. Jones notes that most characters correspond to more than one phoneme realization.
