The name meaning 'black fox' is referred to in different stories as Yípokus and Yípokos, while a plant with red flowers is referred to as both yosoü and yósoü. These are preserved as printed, as they may indicate linguistic variations between story sources.
In the story 'Norwanchakus and Keriha', on page [212] Keriha mentions going beyond the sky in the southwest, then goes beyond the sky in the southeast. This inconsistency is preserved as printed.
