Vocabulary of the Kiowa Language (Classic Reprint)
Description:
Excerpt from Vocabulary of the Kiowa LanguageThe present paper is a reconnaissance report on the language of the Koceguoc, or Kiowa Indians, a small and distinct tribe which history traces from an original habitat in what is now western Mon tana to their present home about Anadarko, Okla. It is based on field work done in 1918 at Anadarko, and the willing informants who were found in Mr. Enoch Smoky1 and Mr. Paul mckenzie made it possible to gather more material during the time devoted to this language than would otherwise have been the case. I found what seemed a more than usual amount of intelligent interest on the part of the Kiowas in the writing of their language, and it is with Kiowa speakers in mind that the orthography of the present vocabu lary has been shaped. The writing Of such a language is difficult at best, and can not be simplified beyond a certain point without omit ting essential features of pronunciation. An outline of the phonetics, pronoun tables, and a brief text have been included, as well as Tanoan etymologies taken from the Tewa dialect spoken at San Juan Pueblo near Santa Fe, New Mexico. The writer also has in preparation a paper showing the surprisingly smaller number of structural and lexical resemblances which Aztec shares with these languages, yet some of these resemblances striking, and appearing to one who has developed a sprachgefiihl as features inherited from unity in the remote past.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
