Starting this here because I have a couple of slim volumes on Athabaskan/Na-Dené in my possession and already have most of the Algonquian changes in my head for reference, so this is a chance to learn something new. More anon.

In that case I can’t help but wonder if it would be better to focus on Algonquian at this early stage. Even so, Na-Dené changes would still be greatly appreciated!

(Hmm… now that I think about it, do we even have any good Na-Dené reconstructions yet?)
