Causative verbs of lower frequency have been left in the list as they are. For many
of these, the decision as to whether initial 5- is a causative morpheme or not would
have been difficult to make.
In the following, each of the 24 transcription symbols which we distinguished are listed
together with their token-frequency (number of occurrences of the relevant letter in the
database) and its type-frequency (number of different lexical entries in the database
which contain the letter). If a letter appears more than once in a word, this only affects
the counting of tokens (e.g. each occurrence of the word m>> is counted as two tokens with
respect to the consonant >, but this is still only one type). We counted separately how
often each consonant occurs as the first, the second, and the third consonant in a word.
