message: OK, insted of four huge tables with almost the same information, we now have one main consonant table, some prose, and another table about the errant consonants. The information about these being cognate I've originally gotten from a linguistics discussion forum and most likely needs to be verified (for that matter, where the aspirates in Hare and /w/ in Mountain have gone would also be nice to kno).
:Only a bit under decade later, this is now done. --Trɔpʏliʊm • blah 01:36, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

message: Removed the section entirely. It would probably be OR and why would anybody do so for this site anyway? Can be restored when at least 1 source for a grammar can be attested. 72.228.150.44 (talk) 18:04, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

message: The letter "§" is in the name of the article "Sahoyúé-§ehdacho", which appeared on Wikipedia's main page on 14 Nov 2013, in the "Did you know?" section. That article says that "§ehdacho" is a word in the Slavey language, and I expected to see something here regarding the alphabet used for this language. This article seems to say a great deal about the various sounds used in Slavey, but nothing about how to write it, other than that Slavey "is written using Canadian Aboriginal syllabics or the Latin script." This symbol does not look anything like any of the Canadian Aboriginal syllabics, so I have to presume that it is some form of Slavey/Latin script. Wikipedia does have an article about "§", but that article seems to consider it as a punctuation symbol, and does not mention anything about it being a letter of any alphabet. Does anyone know any more about this letter, such as what it is called or how it is pronounced? --Keeves (talk) 14:12, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

message: It is well-known now that Dene stuck with the term "Slave" and "Slavey" do not like it. There needs to be a better, more neutral term. If anything, it should just be the "Dene" language. Danachos (talk) 14:28, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
