Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grammar of the Language of the Lenni Lenape or Delaware Indians The next performance that appeared on a comprehensive scale on the subject of languages was, the mithridates, the glory of our science. I have spoken of it at large in my Report to the Historical Committee, made in the year 1819, on the progress then made in the investigation com mitted to me respecting the character and grammatical forms of the languages of the American Indians-ii. Excellent as the Mithridates was at the time when it was published, such is the progress which the philological science has made since that period. That it would require to be almost entirely Written anew. But va'i'er is no more, and who will ven ture to assume his vacant place'l'?

Download or read book A Grammar of Southern Unami Delaware Lenape written by Ives Goddard and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This grammar of the Southern Unami language describes the phonology, the inflectional and derivational morphology, and some aspects of sentence and discourse structure. It does not include a formal treatment of syntax. The treatment of these topics in Delaware Verbal Morphology (Goddard 1979) has been entirely recast, and there are now sections on additional topics that substantially fill out the description of this often complex and idiosyncratic Algonquian language. The facts are presented discursively in small modules with examples. The phonemic transcription has been improved by distinguishing /sg/, /?g/, and /xg/ from /s/, /?/ and /x/ between vowels and after /n/. and by greater consistency in writing the contrast between /o/ and /u/, especially before /w/.The extensive phonological alternations are illustrated with examples of morphological contexts in which they characteristically appear. Static words, syllables, and segments (which have short phonemes inconsistent with the more usual phonological patterns) are treated. The inflection of nouns, pronouns, and verbs is described and illustrated with extensive paradigms, and particles, including enclitics, are treated. The processes of stem derivation are outlined for primary stems and for secondary stems (those derived from another stem). The types of reduplication are described. Several kinds of compounds are distinguished and illustrated. The basic facts of sentence structure are presented, including the function of absolute and objective transitive verbs (to mark distinctions of definiteness) and the use of oblique complements and adjuncts. Other features discussed include verbless sentences, participles (relative clauses), focus-fronting, discontinuous constituents, and gapping. Southern Unami is the heritage language of the Delaware Tribe of Indians (Bartlesville, Okla.) and the Delaware Nation of Western Oklahoma (Anadarko).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grammar and Dictionary of the Language of the Hidatsa (Minnetarees, Grosventres of the Missouri): With an Introductory Sketch of the TribeThe way in which agriculture is conducted is of the most primitive character, the ground is turned up with hoes, and five years ago the aboriginal hoe made from the shoulder blade of the buffalo was still largely 111 use. Nothing know they, of course, of the science of agriculture and year after year the unchanged seed of the same plant is stuck down, not only in the same piece of ground, but in the very same hole out of which the roots of last year's plant Were pulled. Add to the imperfect modes of cultivation the further dis advantages of a cold and dry climate, a short season, an inferior soil, the frequent incursions of hordes of grasshop pers, and the dangers from the attacks of inimical tribes, and it may readily be conjectured that the rewards of hus bandry are but poorly proportioned to the labor expended; and such is the case, their crops only partly aid in sustain ing them. Hunting, and the scanty annuities received from the government make up the balance of their meager subsistence.The village consists of a number of houses, built very closely together and without any attempt at regularity of position, the doors face in every possible direction, and there is so much uniformity in the appearance of the lodges that it is a very difficult matter to find your way among them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
