The title is supposed to be displayed as Skwxwú7mesh culture', with an underscore beneath the "k" and "x", also with a line above the "u". Unfortunately the writing can show is incorrect on some peoples computer screens, but is the most approximate way to write the language's phonetics on English Wikipedia.

Hard to believe, but believe it. It's called a glottal stop. In the International Phonetics Alphabet, it's a "ʔ". When the phonetics alphabet was created for Sḵwx̱wú7mesh language, at the time the number "7", was what signified a glottal stop. Hope that helps clear things up.

Is there a more common name for the culture or the language that is used in English (non-technical) sources and uses normal English orthography? If so it might be a good idea at least to create redirects to this page from such variants. Same goes for related pages such as the page on the language.

This title, like the category named for it, is very problematic and unsuitable because of the primary usage for this name, Squamish, British Columbia. I suggest either Culture of the Squamish people or, despite its "parent" article and category and RM that moved the main article to Squamish people, using the endonym form for subarticles concerning the people, i.e. Culture of the Skwxwu7mesh for clarity's sake. Squamish BC does have a culture (of sorts) but between community events, its civic theatre and galleries (the Brackendale Art Gallery being the most prominent among them, and among BC artspaces and performance spaces) and the annual eagle hunt and the "culture of rock climbing" now associated with it, and the logging culture and Loggers' Sports Days, there are grounds to be concerned that this title and its related category may come to be incorrectly used for items not connected with Skwxwu7mesh culture.Skookum1 (talk) 15:37, 2 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
