PREFACE. 


During the past ten years students of Indian languages have rapidly 
multiplied. When the author of this volume began the exploration 
of the Colorado River of the West under the auspices of the Smithsonian 
Institution, Professor Henry, as its secretary, urgently recommended a 
study of thé Indians of that country, although the work was organized 
primarily as a geographic and geological survey. The region was practi- 
cally unknown to white men, and the Indians found therein were less 
modified by the influences of civilization than any others of the United 
States. The only inhabitants of the country being Indians, the members 
of the survey were thrown the more directly into contact with them, as 
their services were needed in finding trails, fords, passes, and watering 
places. Under these circumstances favorable opportunities were utilized, 
and from time to time since then this work has gradually expanded until a 
Bureau of Ethnology, under the direction of the Smithsonian Institution, 
has been organized by law. 

In the mean time, through the efforts of this organization in its various 
forms many persons have been enlisted in the study of North American 
anthropology and the philologic branch has received special attention. 
To intelligently prosecute linguistic research it was found necessary to 
make a summary of what had previously been done in this field, and a 
classification of the linguistic stocks of North America was undertaken. 
In the progress of this work vocabularies and grammars from various 
sources have been studied and compared with the large amount of matter 
pouring in from the assistants and collaborators with the Bureau. Those 


engaged in the work needed constant direction and were frequently calling 
BV;

for explanations. Thus there came to be an urgent demand for an 
“Introduction to the Study of Indian Languages.” In the year 1877 
the first edition was issued. The progress made by various students, 
and the studies made by the author, alike require that a new edition be 
prepared to meet the more advanced wants and to embody the results of 
wider studies. Under these circumstances the present edition is published. 
It does not purport to be a philosophic treatment of the subject of language; 
it is not a comparative grammar of Indian tongues; it is simply a series of 
explanations of certain characteristics almost universally found by students 
of Indian languages—the explanations being of such a character as expe- 
rience has shown would best meet the wants of persons practically at work 
in the field on languages with which they are unfamiliar. The book is a 
body of directions for collectors. 

It is believed that the system of schedules, followed seriatim, will lead 
the student in a proper way to the collection of linguistic materials; that 
the explanations given will assist him in overcoming the difficulties which 
he is sure to encounter; and that the materials when collected will consti- 
tute valuable contributions to philology. It has been the effort of the 
author to connect the study of language with the study of other branches 
of anthropology, for a language is best understood when the habits, customs, 
institutions, philosophy,—the subject-matter of thought embodied in the 
language are best known. The student of language should be a student 
of the people who speak the language; and to this end the book has been 
prepared, with many hints and suggestions relating to other branches of 
anthropology. 

In preparing the first edition the author appealed to the eminent scholar, 
Prof. J. D. Whitney, for assistance in devising an alphabet; since then 
further experience has demonstrated the propriety of some changes and a 
considerable enlargement of the scheme. For the alphabet as it is now 
presented, Professor Whitney is not responsible, but the writer is greatly 
indebted to him for laying the foundation of the chapter as it appeared in 
the previous edition. 

In the second chapter, entitled “Hints and Suggestions,” the fourth 
section embodies a series of questions prepared by the Hon. Lewis H. Morgan, 


PREFACE. vil 


and by him presented to the Archeological Institute of America, March 
1880, ina “Statement concerning the Objects of an Expedition to New 
Mexico and Arizona, and of one subsequently to Yucatan and Central 
America.”. In many other ways the author is indebted to Mr. Morgan as 
the pioneer investigator into the sociology of the North American Indians. 
The section on Kinship especially is a summary and condensation of a 
portion of his great work on “Consanguinity and Affinity,” published by 
the Smithsonian Institute; but the schedule has been considerably enlarged, 
and diagrams have been devised with the hope of leading to more exhaustive 
research and more nearly accurate records. 

The writer had prepared a section on the study of materials which was 
thought might be useful in a more advanced stage of linguistic study than 
that represented in the collection of the schedules. In this he had discussed, 
to some extent, methods of analyzing Indian languages; but his own work 
had been rather that of the pioneer, and in such advanced studies he had 
taken but little part; and the section as written was unsatisfactory. After 
it had gone into the printer’s hands it occurred to the writer to consult 
again a paper written some years ago and read by Mr. J. Hammond ‘Trum- 
bull before the American Philological Association.* On reading the paper 
again it was thought best to cut out what had been written on this subject 
and to insert in lieu thereof a large portion of Mr. Trumbull’s paper. 

The method of treatment here employed has one characteristic requir- 
ing mention. In its preparation, from time to time, illustrations from Indian 
languages have been more and more eliminated. To the general scholar 
perhaps this is a fault, but experience has fully demonstrated to the author 
that illustrations from unknown languages, presented to the working stu- 
dent in the field, serve rather to obscure than elucidate the subject in hand. 
Illustrations to be of value in such cases must come from materials familiar 
to the student. In incorporating Mr. Trumbull’s paper, which was written 
for scholars rather than for students in the field, the writer did not consider 
himself authorized to modify in any manner what Mr. Trumbull had said. 


Trans. Am. Phil. Asso., 1869-70, Hartford: 1871, 8°. pp. 53-79. 


Viil PREFACE. 


This method of treatment has another important reason for its justifi- 
cation. It seemed desirable to make the hints and suggestions as brief as 
possible, so that the whole volume would form a convenient handbook for 
the collector in the field. In preparing this chapter, in its earliest stage, 
illustrations were accumulated from many sources. Had they been used 
the work would have been more than doubled in size, and as its practical 
purpose would not be subserved thereby they were chiefly eliminated. 

Asthe work of the Bureau has extended from time to time, it has been 
found necessary to prepare a series of volumes like the present, each to be 
an introduction to some branch of anthropologic research. The previous 
edition of the present ‘“‘Introduction” was the first of the series; since that 
time the following have been published: 

Secon, ‘Introduction to the Study of Sign Language among the 
North American Indians,” by Lt. Col. Garrick Mallery, U.S. A.; and 

Tuirp, “Introduction to the Study of the Mortuary Customs of the 
North American Indians,” by Dr. H. C. Yarrow, U.S. A. Several others 
are in course of preparation and will soon be issued. 

This field of research is vast; the materials are abundant and easily col- 
lected; reward for scientific labor is prompt and generous. Under these 
circumstances American students are rapidly entering the field. But the 
area to be covered is so great that many more persons can advantageously 
work therein. Hundreds of languages are to be studied; hundreds of gov- 
ernments exist, the characteristics of which are to be investigated and 
recorded. All these peoples have, to a great extent, diverse arts, diverse 
mythologies, as well as diverse languages and governments; and while the 
people are not becoming extinct but absorbed, languages are changing, 
governments are being overthrown, institutions are replaced, and arts are 
becoming obsolete. The time for pursuing these investigations will soon 
end. The assistance of American scholars is most earnestly invoked.

INTRODUCTION 


TO THE 


STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


By J. W. POWELL. 


CHAPTER I. 


ON THE ALPHABET. 


The study of an unwritten language should begin with committing it 
to writing. In this manner only can the student become so acquainted 
with its elements and characteristics as to be able to discover its grammatic 
structure and its philologic relations; and the language must be written to 
place such discoveries on record. A language cannot be written until its 
sounds are mastered, and this is no easy task. The number of distinct 
qualitative sounds that can be uttered by the human voice i$ very great, and 
without long training the ear cannot properly discern and discriminate them 
all. Inthe English language there are more than forty simple or elemen- 
tary sounds, and each one is made by a more or less complex adjustment 
and movement of the vocal organs, so that in fact no one of these so-called 
elementary sounds is strictly simple. 

In the study of the sounds of a savage or barbaric language the sim- 
plest elements into which each can be resolved are oftentimes even more 
complex than the elementary sounds of the English language. The com- 

Sa ak 


2 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


plexity of the sounds of an unwritten language on the one hand, and the 
want of training to distinguish such sounds on the other, makes the study 
of its phonology difficult. The magnitude of this difficulty in the study of 
the Indian languages of North America will be better understood when it 
is known that there are several hundred languages, and that there are proba- 
bly sounds in each which do not appear in the English or any other civil- 
ized tongue; and perhaps sounds in each which do not appear in any of the 
others; and further, that there are perhaps sounds in each of such a charac- 
ter, or made with so much uncertainty that the ear primarily trained to 
distinguish English speech is unable to clearly determine what these sounds 
are, even after many years of effort. But the student of one Indian tongue 
has but a small part of these difficulties to master. Usually the most ele- 
mentary sounds into which any Indian language can be resolved will be of 
a smaller number than the English, and very many of the sounds will be 
the same or nearly the same as those with which he is familiar. A few only 
will be strange to him By frequently and carefully comparing the sounds 
of an Indian tongue with the known sounds of his own language the student 
will be able to very nearly reproduce and describe them. In his first attempt 
the obstacles will seem great, but as the work progresses they will largely 
disappear and he will soon be able to write the language with all the accuracy 
that linguistic science requires. In practice the student of the Indian 
tongue will commence by comparing its sounds with those of his own lan- 
guage, and thus the alphabet of his language will become the basis of the 
one to be used in writing the Indian language. 

To the English student, then, it becomes necessary to determine how 
his own alphabet, 7. ¢., the Roman letters, can be used for the new language 
with which he has to deal. There are other reasons than that of mere con- 
venience why the Roman alphabet should be used. First, it is the alphabet 
with which the greater part of the civilized people of the world are acquaint- 
ed, and if consistently used all such people can more easily. study a tongue 
recorded with it than if unfamiliar characters are employed Again, the 
Roman alphabet is used in all printing rooms where the English tongue is 
spoken, and in very many others; and if a new tongue is written in these 
characters it can be reproduced without difficulty in almost any printing

office of the civilized world. If new characters are used or the Roman 
characters modified so that types for their printing cannot be found in ordi- 
nary printing offices, the literature relating to such a language will, to a 
large extent, be excluded from the scientific and popular publications of the 
world. For these and similar considerations it is best to use the Roman 
alphabet, unmodified by additions thereto or by such diacritical marks as 
are not usually found in printing offices. 

Unfortunately in the use of the Roman alphabet for the English lan- 
guage many inconsistencies and absurdities have been introduced. The 
same sound is often represented by different letters or combinations of let- 
ters, and often the same letter has different values in different words; that 
is, in one word it represents some particular sound and in another word 
some other particular sound. How these inconsistencies have grown up 
cannot here be set forth. It is unfortunate that the English language, in 
many respects the most highly developed of all the tongues spoken by 
civilized people, is so absurdly burdened with a barbaric orthography. 
This difficulty of the inconsistent use of the alphabet in the English lan- 
guage is overcome only by an accurate knowledge of the spelling and pro- 
nunciation of each individual word of the language, as there are practically 
no rules for spelling and no rules for pronunciation. But he who first writes 
an Indian language prepares it for the study of those who are not familiar 
with it, and he will entirely fail unless he uses his alphabet with rigid con- 
sistency. In first writing a new language it should be an invariable rule 
to adopt a specific and distinct character for each sound; that is, let every 
sound have a character of its own and be invariably written with that 
character. 

These then are the fundamental rules to be observed in writing an 
Indian tongue: 

1. The Roman alphabet must be used without additions, and with only 
such diacritical marks as are found in ordinary fonts of type 

2. Each sound must have a letter of its own. 

3. Each character must be used to represent but one sound. 

4. The Roman alphabet must be used for sounds in the Indian tongue 


4 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


the same or analogous to the sounds for which they are used in English and 
other civilized languages. 

It is necessary then to set forth the best method of using the Roman 
alphabet. 

VOWELS. 

The vowel sounds found most widely among human languages are the 
five occurring in these English words: far, they, pique, note, rule. 

Each of these sounds is represented in English by two or more letters 
or combinations of letters. Often in English, still more often in French, 
and usually in German and Italian, these sounds are represented by the 
vowel letters by which they are written in the words above given, namely: 

a é t oO u 
Sar, they, pique, note, rule. 

They are generally called the continental signs, as being so used in all 
Europe except the British Isles. 

Any given vowel sound is apt to be found in the same language hav- 
ing two different quantities, one long and one short. Often there is also a 
slight difference of quality or tone added to that of quantity. This differ- 
ence of tone between the long and short values of what is nearly the same 
sound is greater in English than in almost any other language. The shorter 
sound corresponding to the long e of they is the sound in then or head; the 
short sound to pique is that in pick; the short sound to rule is that in pull. 
But the English has no real short 0, except in the ‘‘ Yankee” pronunciation 
of a few words like home, whole, none. Nor has it a real short sound corre- 
sponding to the a of far and father ; the so-called ‘‘short 0” of not and what 
and their like is our nearest approach to it, and near enough to bear being 
called a short a. 

The usual way to distinguish the short value of the vowel is to write a 
curved mark (the breve) over it. These five signs, then, should be written 


in this manner: 
é é i ‘ i 


U 
what, then, pick, [whole, | pull. 
It should be distinctly remembered that the sounds represented by these 
letters marked with the breve are not exactly the short sounds correspond- 
ing to the long vowels represented by the unmodified letters. There is in 


ON THE ALPHABET, 5 


each case a slight difference of tone in addition to the difference in quan- 
tity. 

In English we have a vowel sound heard in awe, aught, all, lord, and 
many other words. It should be written by @. Then there is the sound of 
a in cat, man, and other words. This should be represented by d. Finally 
there is the vowel sound heard in but, son, blood. It is‘often called a neutral 
vowel, because in its utterance the organs of the mouth are nearly in the 
indefinite position of simple breathing. It is the obscure sound heard in 
many unaccented syllables — It is nearly like the German 6 and the French 
eu, but not exactly the same as either. As it is called by us “‘short wu,” and 
to one accustomed to English seems most naturally represented by a u, the 
sign @ has been here adopted for it. 

The peculiar sound of the French wu in tu, pure, mir, ete., or of the 
German i in kihl, kiissen, ete., will, whenever found, be written with the 
German sign #. It is made by a combination of the tongue-position by 
which i in pique is uttered with the lip-position by which w in rule is uttered. 
These four additional vowels are thus provided for: 

a a a ii ii 
all, cat, but, kuhl and mir. 

Sometimes a vowel is excessively prolonged, and this characteristic 
plays an important part in some languages. In such cases the sign for plus 
+ should be written after the vowel thus prolonged; thus—ad-+, a+, d+, 
0+, a+. 


DIPHTHONGS. 


What is called the “long i” of aisle, isle, etc., is really a compound 
sound, a diphthong, beginning with a (far) and running down and ending 
with i (pique or pick). It is, therefore, to be written with ai. 

The sound in how, out, etc., is in a precisely similar manner a com- 
pound, beginning with a (far) and running down to w (rule or full). It is 
accordingly to be represented by aw. 

If such a diphthong as ours in boil or boy is met with, it must of course 
be represented by di, the signs for its two parts. 

What we call “long u,” as in use, pure, mew, feud, ete., is clearly a 


6 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


double scund, precisely that of you, and can never be written with one 
character in any phonetic alphabet; its proper representative is yu. 

We have then, finally, the diphthongs— 

ai au di 
mine, down, boil. 

A little careful practice will give ready command of this scheme of 
vowel signs. It is proposed as a basis, a model which is to be adhered to 
as closely as circumstances shall allow, in representing the strange sounds 
that may be met with in practice. Its use will not take away the necessity 
for careful description, nor will it answer all purposes. A language may, 
for example (like French and German), distinguish two e-sounds, a closer 
(French é) and an opener (French é or é), akin respectively with our e (they) 
and é (then), but, unlike the latter, not differing in quantity, as long and 
short. In such a case it will be best to use é for the opener sound, and we 
may also need an 6 for an opener 0, and even an é for an opener i (akin to 
our short z of pick). And there may be varieties of the “neutral vowel” 
for which the German 6 will be a convenient sign. 


CONSONANTS. 


There can be no question as to the proper method of representing 
some of the consonant sounds, because widespread usage has fixed certain 
sounds to certain characters; but in others there has been great variety of 
usage, and still other of the sounds with which the student will have to 
deal in Indian languages are unknown to the languages of civilization. 


MUTES. 


The three letters p, t, and krepresent the sounds heard in the following 
words: prop, trot, creak. 

The last example shows that we use ¢ as well as & with this value; 
that must be avoided in a systematic alphabet; & only should be used. 

The ¢ and & of other languages often do not precisely agree in charac- 
ter with ours; one should be on the lookout here (as, indeed, everywhere 
else) for differences, and should note and describe them, if possible. 

Of these three, the p is called a ‘‘labial” mute, because made with the 
lips; the ¢ a “lingual” (or “dental”), because made with the tongue-tip 


o 


ON THE ALPHABET. fi 


(and near the teeth); the & a “palatal” or “ guttural,” because made against 
the palate, or near the throat, with the back part of the tongue. 

Then there are three other mutes, closely related to these, 6, d, and g; 
their examples are these: blab, dread, grog. 

They differ from the three preceding in that there is tone, audible 
sound, made in the throat during the continuance of the contact by which 
they are produced. They are, therefore, properly called the “sonant” 
mutes, while the others are called the ‘‘surd” or ‘‘non-sonant,” or ‘‘ tone- 
less” mutes—or some term equivalent to this; (the names “hard” and 
“soft,” and their like, are altogether to be rejected.) Usually a language 
has both the surd and sonant corresponding mutes—t and d, p and b, k and 
g—it it has either. 

All these sounds are called mutes because the mouth-organs are so 
closed in making them that no breath escapes until the closure is broken or 
exploded. 

The mutes, then, are— 


p t k b d g 
prop, trot, creak, blab, dread, grog. 
NASALS. 


If, now, with just the same positions of the mouth-organs, the breath is 
suffered to pass into or through the nose, the result is the so-called “nasal 
mutes,” or ‘nasal consonants,” or simply “‘nasals.” Generally, a language 
has a nasal corresponding to each pair of non-nasal mutes (surd and sonant). 
So, in English we hear the labial nasal m, the lingual nasal », and the 
palatal nasal in sing, bring, etc. This last is just as simple a sound as either 
of the others, but we have no simple sign for it, and write it with ng. If 
this double sign, or ‘‘digraph,” were adopted as its representative, we 
should have difficulty in distinguishing the simple nasal, as in s¢mger, from 
the nasal followed by a g-sound, as in finger. The best single substitute is 
f, because it is always to be found in the printing offices. 

The nasals, then, are— 


m n n 
mum, nun, sINngunrg. 


The nasal mutes are made, as above defined, with complete closure of 
the mouth-organs, and get their peculiar nasal quality from the ringing of 


8 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


the expelled air in the nose. But if the same nasal ringing is made while 
the mouth-organs are in a position which produces a vowel (part of the 
breath being driven through the mouth, as in ordinary vowel utterance, but 
a part also into or through the nose), the result is a vowel with a nasal 
twang or tone added to it or a ‘‘nasal vowel.” The French, for example, 
has four nasal vowels, as in en, vin, on, un. Whenever such are found in 
an Indian language, they may be written with the proper sign for just that 
vowel-sound which is given, and with the addition of a “superior” » to 
indicate the nasality. Thus, the four French sounds would be represented 
thus: 


an an an an 
en, vin, on, un. 
SPIRANTS. 


But there are other pairs of surd and sonant sounds (without nasal cor- 
respondents). 

Thus, for example, the f of fife and the v of valve stand related in this 
way, the f being made by an expulsion of pure breath, and the v of intoned 
or sonant breath, through the same position of the mouth-organs. In 
English, this position is a pressing of the upper teeth upon the lower lip; 
but some languages leave out the teeth altogether, and produce very nearly 
the same sounds between the edges of the two lips alone. In any lan- 
guage it would be well to look sharply to see whether its for v, or both, 
are of the one kind or the other. 

The th-sound in our words thin and truth, and that in then and with, are 
related in the same way, one being surd and the other sonant. Although 
they are simple sounds in English, they are represented by a “digraph,” 
but this method cannot be used in Indian languages, for the component 
parts of the ‘‘digraph” are needed for their own proper purposes, as these 
sounds frequently come together in the same order, and in English the 
same “digraph” is used for both sounds, which will not do. It is proposed 
to use for the surd (the th as in thin) the ¢, and for the sonant (the th in 
then) the character ¢. 

The sounds last described may be called “spirants.” The fand v are 
labial, and the ¢ and ¢ are lingual, although each pair brings in an addi- 


ON THE ALPHABET. 9 


tional organ, the teeth. In English we have no palatal spirants, but they 
are found in many languages. The German, for example, has two: one in 
words like ich and milch, formed farther forward on the tongue; the other, 
in ach, doch, ete., farther back—more gutturally. They are both surd, and 
the corresponding sonant is nearly the Arabic ‘“ ghain.” As we have no 
other use for g and 2, these characters may be used in representing them. 
If a surd palatal spirant is found, let it be represented by gq, and if a sonant 
is found, by 2. 


The spirants, then, are— 
af v g t @ qd s 
jife, valve, thin, then, ich and ach, x= Arab. ghain 
SIBILANTS. 


We come now to the class of “ sibilants,” or hissing sounds. Our 
common English s and z need no explanation; they, too, are corresponding 
surd and sonant. But our sh-sound is just as much a simple sound as s, 
although we use two letters to write it; and it, as a surd, has its corre- 
sponding sonant in azure and pleasure, in fusion and adhesion, and their like. 
As we have no other use for ¢ and 7 let the first, the surd, be represented 
by ¢, and its corresponding sonant by 7. 

The ch and j sounds in church and judge are compound, having for their 
last part the sh and zh sounds, with a ¢ prefixed to the one and ad to the 
other; the ¢ and d, however, formed in a somewhat different way from our 
usual ones—namely, farther back in the mouth, and with the flat of the 
tongue. These compound sounds should be written by ée and dj. 

Thus, the sibilants are— 


8 z c 4} te dj 
sauce. zones. shrewish. azure. church. judge. 


W, Y, BR, L, AND H. 

The sounds of our y and w, as in you and we, should be written with 
these letters. The same with an h-sound prefixed to them—as in when 
(=hwen) and hue (=hyu)—should be written as pronounced: that is, hw 
and hy. Some hold, to be sure, that these sounds are not w and y with an 
h prefixed, but rather are the corresponding surds to w and y; in either 
case, however, the hw and hy signs are the best, and unobjectionable. 


10 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


In the way in which the w and y are made by the mouth-organs, the 
sound of w differs but slightly from that of w (rue), and the sound of y 
but slightly from that of 7 (pique). 

The r is a difficult sound for an English speaker to deal with, because 
the English r is spoken so slightly, or even, in a host of cases (when not 
immediately followed by a vowel), by some people silenced altogether. 
Other languages are apt to give it a decidedly stronger, even a trilling or 
vibrated utterance. How, in any given language, the r (if present) is pro- 
nounced will be a proper subject for special description. 

In some languages a sort of imitation of r is made by vibrating the 
uvula instead of the tip of the tongue. If met with, this may be repre- 
sented by an inverted r (marked in manuscript thus, 7), as described below. 
An r that has an h-sound pronounced before it should, of course, be writ- 
ten hr. 

The y-sound is uttered between the tip of the tongue and the roof of 
the mouth. In an /-sound the tongue touches the roof of the mouth some- 
where in the middle, and the breath comes out at the sides of the tongue. 
The ordinary / has the tongue in the ¢-position. The peculiar / expressed 
in Italian by gi (as in moglie) is made with the flat of the tongue, instead of 
its tip, against the roof the mouth, and will be conveniently represented by 
ly; it is also nearly the French / (mowillé). The n similarly made (rather 
palatal than lingual), which is the # of the Spanish and gn of the French (as 
in canon, regner), may be written in like manner with ny. 

The h-sound, though by no means found in all languages, is a common 
one. It is an expulsion of air through the position of the adjoining sonant 
sound. Thus, for example, the h of ha is a momentary rush of surd breath 
through the organs put in position for a, before the tone begins which makes 
the a itself; and it is just so with the h of he and with that of who; they 
are made respectively with the mouth-organs in the position of 7 (pique) 
and of wu (rule). To be areal h, a pure aspiration, the sound must have 
this character. If there is a narrowing of the throat anywhere, so as to 
give a rasping noise, the sound is of another character, a guttural spirant, 
and must be specially described and differently represented. 

In English we use the aspiration only before a vowel and before the 


zt 


ON THE ALPHABET. 11 


semivowels w and y (as instanced above by whez and hue). In some other 
languages it may be found also before r and / and the nasal mutes » and m. 
Again, it may be found following instead of preceding the vowel which 
gives it its character. There are languages, too, in which strengthened or 
modified breathings appear which yet are not precisely spirants, and it may 
be necessary, in order to represent them, to double the h, or use other 
methods of distinction. 

Uses have thus been assigned to all our letters. 

In some languages the mutes, especially the surd ones, are sometimes 
uttered in such a way that there is a perceptible puff of breath—a kind of 
h-sound, between them and the following sounds. Sometimes there is an 
initial breathing of the same character; in such cases they are said to be 
aspirated; these aspirates or rough breathings should be represented by 
an inverted comma, thus, b‘, d‘. 

Much like these are the— 


INTERRUPTED SOUNDS. 


A peculiar modification of a consonant sound is sometimes found in a 
short explosion as its pronunciation is terminated. Perhaps it would be 
better described as a hiatus or interruption between two sounds with a 
slight explosion of the first, though other students describe it as‘an initial 
explosion to the following sound. The following illustration, taken from 
C. Hermann Berendt’s “Analytical Alphabet for the Mexican and Central 
American Languages,” page 3, will assist in the appreciation of this pecul- 
larity. ‘Omitting from the sentence ‘break in’ the letters brea and pro- 
nouncing the remainder kin, gives exactly the sound of xin. The same 
experiment made with the sentences ‘leap on,’ ‘cut off, ‘reach in,’ and 
‘kratzen’ (German) gives the sound of pon, tof, txin, tsan. The distinction 
between the simple and the cut consonant is important. For instance, ‘kan’ 
means snake, and ‘kan’ yellow in Maya.” 

These exploded sounds are very frequent; perhaps they occur in all 
the Indian languages. The student should mark the letters representing 
such sounds by placing immediately after them an apostrophe, thus, 0’, d’. 


12 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


The aspirations described in a previous paragraph seem to be inter- 
mediate between true H’s and the exploded sounds as last described. In 
most Indian languages these peculiarities require careful study. 


SYNTHETIO SOUNDS. 


Much difficulty is sometimes occasioned by the indefinite character of 
some of the sounds of a language. 

In the Hidatsa there is a sound of such a character that the English 
student cannot decide to which of the sounds represented by b, w, or m, it 
is most nearly allied; and there is another which the student cannot dis- 
tinguish from /, n, r, or d; such sounds are not differentiated as they are in 
English. They are synthetic; that is, they are made by the organs of 
speech in positions and with movements comprehending in part at least the 
positions and movements used in making the several sounds to which they 
seem to be allied. Such a synthetic sound will be heard by the student 
now as one, now as another sound, even from the same speaker. Such 
sounds are very common in Indian tongues and occasion no little difficulty 
to collectors, but much trouble can be avoided by a proper understanding 
of their nature. The student will at first note that the same speaker 
repeating the word in which such a sound occurs over and over again will 
be heard in such a manner that he, as hearer, will suppose him to be con- 
stantly changing the sound from that represented by one, two or more 
letters to another of the same group, and when he himself attempts to pro- 
nounce the word the Indian is equally satisfied whichever of the sounds is 
employed. It is found in studying a group of Indian languages of the 
same stock that these sounds which are synthetic in one branch are some- 
times differentiated in another, so that if we have in the first branch a 
synthetic sound, in the second some words will employ one of the differen- 
tiated elements, some another, and the same will be true of a third branch 
where the sounds are found to be differentiated. On comparing the second 
and third branches of the language it will be found sometimes that in cor- 
responding words the same differentiated sound will appear; in other 
corresponding words different sounds will appear; and if the language in 
which the synthetic sounds are used were lost, the use of differentiated 


ON THE ALPHABET. i 


sounds in the two languages would illustrate beautifully that change of 
consonants which has been described as being in conformity with Grimm’s 
laws. 

When the phonology of our Indian tongues is thoroughly understood, 
much light will be thrown upon the whole science of phonology, and some 
of the most important facts to be collected in relation to this matter are 
connected with these synthetic sounds and their differentiation in aberrant 
languages. The student should carefully determine the group of element- 
ary letters in any synthetic sound, and constantly employ some one of the 
corresponding characters to represent it, and in his description of his 
alphabet the whole matter should be fully explained. 


COMPLEX COMBINATIONS. 


The student is apt to find combinations of sound with which he is 
unfamiliar, and which will cause no little difficulty. The consonant sounds 
will be found to come in an order with which he is unacquainted, and 
which it will be difficult for him to pronounce. Some of these combinations 
may be very long—three, four, or five consonants being used in one 
syllable, i. e., without an intervening vowel. All such complex sounds 
should be carefully analyzed and their constituents represented by appro- 
priate letters. 


SOUNDS FOR WHICH NO LETTERS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED. 


The student will in all probability discover sounds and peculiarities of 
sound for which no provision is made in the above alphabet, and yet the 
Roman characters will serve him for their representation by adopting the 
simple device of inverting them. In so doing he should be guided by the 
analogies of the system here laid down, All of the letters cannot with 
safety be inverted. 

The following only can be used in this manner: 4, @, @, d, d, ¢, @, @, @, 
g, h, 2, 1, k, 1, m, 6, 6, 6, 7, t, v, w, Y. 

Still the student has another resource. Letters may be doubled, but 
this should be a last resort. 

The preceding characters are tabulated below, and examples given to 
indicate their use as recommended.

words. At first it will be necessary to refer to the alphabet frequently, 
and to facilitate this reference the alphabet has been reprinted on a card, 
which the student should keep before him in the earlier part of his work. 


CHAPTER II. 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 


This chapter is arranged in sections, and the sections numbered; and 
the following chapter is composed of a series of numbered schedules. The 
sections in this chapter refer serially to the schedules in the following 
chapter, and are prepared for the purpose of explaining severally the 
materials called for in the schedules, and to explain the difficulties which 
the student may encounter. 

Care should be taken to obtain words from the Indians themselves. 
Indians speaking English can be found in almost every tribe within the 
United States. Words cannot be obtained accurately from white men who 
are supposed to speak the Indian tongue, unless such persons have been 
long with the Indians and are intelligent and scholarly, and have had some 
reason for studying Indian languages on account of their being mission- 
aries, teachers, or linguists. © 

_ The general method of communication between white men and Indians 
is by a conventional jargon, composed of corrupted Indian and English 
words, with many words from other European tongues. In this fact is 
found one of the reasons why words should not be collected from white 
men unless they have a scholarly knowledge, as indicated above. 

To collect words from an Indian requires great patience, as it is diffi- 
cult to hold his attention for any great length of time, and it requires a 
constant exercise of ingenuity to devise methods by which he may fully 
understand what is asked by the collector, and that the collector himself 


may fee] that he is working with certainty. 
2811 17 


18 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


Sometimes an Indian in jest will deceive by giving foolish or vulgar 
words; for this and other reasons everything collected should be carefully 
verified. 

5 1.—PERSONS. 

Most of the words in this list can easily be obtained, but care should 
be taken to obtain the word for man; not Indian or white man; and in 
most of the set to get the words called for, and not terms of relationship. 


§2.—PARTS OF THE BODY. 


In many Indian languages there is no separate word for eye, hand, 
arm, or other parts and organs of the body, but the word is found with an 
incorporated or attached pronoun signifying my hand, my eye; your hand, 
your eye; his hand, his eye, &c., as the case may be. If the Indian, in 
naming these parts, refers to his own body, he says my ; if he refers to the 
body of the person to whom he is speaking, he says your, &c. If an Indian 
should find a detached foot thrown from the amputating-table of an army 
field hospital, he would say something like this: “I have found somebody 
his foot.” The pronominal particle should be written with the part imply- 
ing the name, the whole forming but one word. It is usually very easy, 
by inspection, to determine what pronoun is used. This linguistic charac- 
teristic is widely spread though not universal. 

It is a general custom among the Indians to pierce the ears for orna- 
ments; many tribes also pierce the septum of the nose. 

The names of internal organs or parts can better be determined after 
having learned the names of parts of animals as subsequently called for in 
Schedule 12. 

There may be a general term for blood-vessel, and specific terms for 
the more noticeable ones. 


§ 3—DRESS AND ORNAMENTS. 


Primitively the Indians used the skins of animals, and, to a limited 
extent, crude textile fabrics for their clothing. The dress of the man con- 
sisted— 

First, of a head-covering or cap. This was often the skin taken from 
the head of some animal, as the wolf, bear, deer, fox, &c., and stretched 


\ oi Al Mad 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 19 


with the ears left on; sometimes the horns of some animals were left on. 
Sometimes a cap was made of the skin of a bird. A great variety was used 

Second, a tunic, usually made of the dressed skin of some animal, 
especially the elk, deer, antelope, and mountain sheep. In warm weather 
the tunic was rarely worn. 

Third, a breech-cloth and belt. 

Fourth, a pair of leggins. 

Fifth, a pair of moccasins. 

In excessively cold weather the Indian often wore a toga—the skin of 
a wild animal. Among some tribes this robe was made of a number of skins 
of small animals cut into strips, rolled or twisted, and woven into a loose 


fabric with the warp made of threads spun from some vegetable fiber. 


The dress of a woman consisted of a 

Small conical basket-work cap, which she used at will as a covering 
for the head or a basket in which to gather berries or carry small articles. 

A short petticoat, extending from the waist to the knees, fastened with 
a girdle. 

High moccasins, fastened with garters. 

Where the civilized dress has not been adopted, the short petticoat has 
usually been superseded by a gown made to extend from the neck to the 
feet, but without sleeves. This is fastened with a girdle about the waist. 
In the vocabulary the names of these primitive articles of dress are called 
for. The names of the articles of civilized dress should be recorded in 
Schedule 24. 

For personal adornment a great variety of ornaments were used, made 
of stone, bone, shell, wood, feathers, bills and claws of birds, claws of ani- 
mals, skins of snakes, &c., and were used as chaplets, necklaces, bracelets, 
waist-bands, and attached to the clothing in various ways. Many peculiar 
costumes were used in their religious dances and other ceremonies; the 
most common and important article in those costumes were masks. Finger- 
rings, ear-rings, nose-rings, and labrets were used; sometimes the septum 
of the nose was pierced, in which was worn a nose-stick from three to four 
inches in length and sharpened at either end. 

In this schedule only the names of primitive articles are called for. 


20 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


§ 4—DWELLINGS. 


The priscan, 7. ¢., primitive dwellings of the Indians were of two classes, 
permanent and temporary, which for convenience we will call wigwams and 
lodges respectively. Prior to the introduction of the horse upon this con- 
tinent the Indians were far less nomadic than they have subsequently been 
known. ‘Their sedentary life led most of the tribes to the construction of 
somewhat permanent dwellings; yet to a slight extent many of the tribes 
had habits of roaming; especially they made journeys to favorite hunting 
grounds or fishing waters. When on these journeys they exhibited consid- 
erable skill in the erection of temporary dwellings; and they even provided 
for their wants in advance by preparing lodges made of the skins of animals. 

Their wigwams were constructed of various materials—poles interlaced 
with bark, reeds, tules, grass, &c.; slabs rived from young saplings, and 
these sometimes covered as the poles; poles and slabs covered with earth; 
and, finally, some tribes exhibited considerable skill in the erection of stone 
dwellings. 

It may be that wigwams or permanent dwellings were sometimes made 
of the skins of animals, but it seems more probable that in their priscan 
condition skin lodges were used chiefly as temporary dwellings. Their 
wigwams were of multiform construction—conical, square, and oblong; 
they were made to accommodate two or more households—often an entire 
gens. 

The lodges or temporary dwellings were usually made of the dressed 
skins of animals supported by lodge-poles, or of brush, bark, grass, &c., 
supported in like manner. 

A description of both classes of dwellings should be given. The 
method of dividing the wigwams into compartments should be noted, and 
the names of the compartments given; also the names of the other parts of 
the house, as doorways, smoke escapes, &e. 

In their dwellings the Indians are punctilious in assigning places to 
the regular occupants and visitors. Their rules for such occupancy are 
important. 

In the slab houses of the northwest coast, Indian architecture with 
materials of wood was most highly developed. Here the houses are orna- 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. Dil 


mented on the exterior with carved posts, some of which are composed of 
successive blocks, one upon another. The carvings were the totems or 
gentile emblems of the ancestry of the householder. 

In the pueblos of the southwest, architecture in materials of stone 
found its highest development among the Indians of the United States. 
So far as we know at present, these houses are communal or gentile dwell- 
ings. Usually a group of dwellings, slightly detached or otherwise sepa- 
rated in architecture, constituted the tribal village. 

In studying these pueblos the gentile divisions and the household 
divisions into compartments should be carefully described and their names 
given. At the same time the architectural parts should be described and 
their names given. In schedule No. 4 many of these items are called for. 

The Indians also construct council houses and sudatories, 7. ¢., sweat- 
houses; sometimes, perhaps, the same structure was used for both pur- 
poses; but this is not very probable. In the pueblos the council houses 
are underground chambers. 

The women construct menstrual lodges; these are rude shelters apart 
from the others. They should be described and their names recorded. 

The Hon. Lewis H. Morgan, of Rochester, in a statement to the 
Archeological Institute of America, enumerates the following items as sub- 
jects of investigation among the pueblos of the United States: 

1. To make a careful exploration of the structures in ruins, taking 
ground plans of them, with elevations and details of the more important 
structures, and with exact measurements. 

2. To procure and bring away specimens of the stones used in these 
structures; to determine the extent and character of the dressing—~. ¢., to 
find whether the stones were dressed, or prepared by fracture simply; 
whether the angle formed upon the stones is a right angle, and whether 
the upper and lower sides are parallel. 

3. To take apart the masonry to find how it was laid up, and the 
degree of skill displayed in it. 

4. To find how far below the ground surface the walls are laid, and 
how truly they are vertical. 

5. To bring away specimens of the mortar for analysis. 


22 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


6. To ascertain how the joists in ceilings and the lintels over doorways 
were cut; how the wooden trap-doorway was framed and held together; 
and what varieties of wood were used for these purposes. 

7. To determine whether fireplaces and chimneys existed in the struct- 
ures now in ruins. 

8. To ascertain the lithological character of the stone used; and 
whether it was quarried, or picked up from broken masses of rock and 
carried long distances; also to ascertain by measurements the size of the 
stone used in the walls—the largest, the smallest, and the average. 

9. To determine the plan and uses of the round towers of stone found 
on the Mancos River, and in some cases incorporated in pueblo houses— 
as in the case of a stone pueblo at the eastern base of Ute Mountain in 
Colorado. 

10. To examine the so-called cemeteries in Montezuma valley, where 
single graves are marked by a border of flat stones, set level with the 
ground in a rectangle. 

11. To examine the garden beds and irrigating canals, and ascertain 
the methods of cultivation now or formerly in use. 

12. To make ground plans and elevations with measurements of the 
present occupied pueblo houses in New Mexico and Arizona, in order to 
determine whether or not the houses in ruins and the occupied houses are 
constructed upon a common plan. 

13. To ascertain the mode of life in these houses, past and present; 
whether the people are organized in gentes, and what is their social system ; 
how the sections of these joint-tenement houses were owned, and how 
inherited ; and what limitations, if any, were put upon the. power of sale. 
The same as to gardens and personal property. 

14. To find the number of persons who live and eat together, united 
in a family, and how the members are related; or, in other words, to ascer- 
tain whether any trace now exists of large groups of related persons prac- 
ticing communism in living in the household. Also to find, if possible, the 
size of the group in former times.

§ 5.—_IMPLEMENTS AND UTENSILS. 


All of our Indian tribes had developed rude arts before the advent 
of the white man, and manufactured various implements and utensils. 
For war they had bows, arrows, spears, clubs, and slings. Their bows 
were usually made of wood: the back of the bow being sometimes cov- 
ered with sinew fastened on with glue; some few tribes, however, made 
them of the horns of the mountain sheep. For this purpose the horns were 
soaked in water and split into shavings, and the shavings glued together to 
form the bow. 

Their bow-strings were made of sinew or twisted vegetable fibers. 
To prevent the wrist from being cut by the bow-string, they used a wrist- 
euard made of a piece of untanned skin of some animal, hardened by 
drying. 

In the arrow three elements are recognized—the arrow-head, shaft, 
and shaft feathers. Arrow-heads were made of stone, bone, horn, or very 
hard wood. Their shafts were made of wood or reeds, and were often 
feathered. The arrow-head was fastened to the shaft sometimes with 
vegetable or mineral resins, sometimes by tying with sinew; or both 
methods were used. The shreds of feather were attached to the shaft 
with sinew. 

The implements used in making their arrows were as follows: For 
rudely breaking up the flint or other stone material necessary for their 
arrow-heads stone hammers were used. For finally fashioning the heads 
little rod-like instruments of bone or horn were used, and the chipping 
was done by sudden pressure. Stone and copper knives were used in 
fashioning the shafts, and a piece of perforated horn or bone was used 
as a shaft straightener. The shafts were polished with a grooved stone. 

The arrows were carried in a quiver slung on the back and open at 
the shoulder. 

Their clubs were variously carved and ornamented; sometimes they 
were weighted at the end farthest from the hand by a knot. Sometimes a 
larger stick was used, and the handle cut down so that the extreme end 
was reinforced. Sometimes the war-clnb was composed of a handle fast- 


24 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


ened with thongs to a stone. When the stone was fashioned into a battle- 
axe it composed what we now call the tomahawk. The blade of the tom- 
ahawk was rarely made of copper. 

Spears were also used—sharpened sticks of hardened wood, and 
wooden shafts tipped with horn, bone, stone, or copper. 

Various devices were used as barbs for fishing spears. 

The Indians were sometimes armed for close conflict with long-bladed 
knives of stone, and, rarely, of copper. Sometimes the handle was of one 
piece with the blade; sometimes the handle was made of wood fastened 
with cement. 

For defensive purposes they used shields made of the untanned skin 
of some animal, hardened by drying. For further protection they dug 
pits, in which they concealed themselves for ambuscade and found protec- 
tion for their bodies. They also built palisades about their villages. 

Those who navigated the rivers and shore waters of lakes and seas 
made canoes by hollowing trees with fire and stone adzes. Small canoes 
were the property of individuals; large ones usually of gentes. 

Some tribes caught fish with hook and line and with nets. Many 
tribes made large nets of twisted vegetable fibers, as hurdles for catching 
rabbits and some other animals. Into these nets the animals were driven 
by methods commonly known in this country as circle hunting. 

Pipes were made of reeds, hollow stems of wood, baked clay, and 
stone. In the more primitive methods the axis of the bowl was a prolonga- 
tion of the axis of the stem; many Indians still prefer pipes of this fashion 
for ceremonial use. 

In domestic utensils they had wooden ware, stone ware, horn ware, 


basketry, and pottery. 
§ 6.—FOOD. 


The objects used for food by the priscan Indians were multifarious; 
depending largely upon the habitat of the several tribes—fruits, nuts, seeds 
of trees, and fruits of many shrubs and grasses, roots, reeds, fruits, tubers, 
fleshy leaves and stalks, the inner bark of trees, various fungi, and in one 
case, certainly, subterranean fungi—the Tuckahoe and diatomaceous earths. 
They also raised corn, squashes, and beans. 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 25 


Hunting and fishing gave the Indians a great variety of animal foods. 
Turtles, lizards, snakes, and many insects were eaten; in the arid regions 
of America grasshoppers furnished a staple article of diet. 

Vegetable and animal foods were prepared in various ways. Seeds 
were roasted and ground into meal; insects were usually treated in like 
manner, and various stews, mushes, and breads were made. 

The student will find this an interesting theme for investigation, and 
he will find names for a variety of food materials and dishes. 


§ 7.—COLORS. 


Many other distinctions of color than those given in the list may be 
observed, and many arrangements of color noticed, as in spots, stripes, 
checks, &e., all of which should be recorded. 

Intermediate tints should be asked for, and frequently it will be found 
that words used for designating such are compounds of names understood 
by the Indians to indicate distinct colors. Thus, in the Ute language, 
din-kar is red, té-kar is black, and brown is dn-to-kar. 


§ 8 NUMERALS. 


Any intelligent Indian can easily count a hundred, and repeat this for 
as many hundreds as may be desired. When counting abstractly a common 
termination for the numeral will sometimes be used, signifying i count, im 
number, or something equivalent. If set to count a series of objects, he may 
repeat the name of the object each time. No difficulty will be experienced 
in obtaining the cardinal numbers, but much patience is required to obtain 
the ordinals and other categories of numbers. 

In some Indian languages there is more than one set of cardinal num- 
bers. Animate objects may be counted with one set, inanimate with 
another. They may have a particular set for counting fish, or for counting 
skins; perhaps a set for counting standing objects, and another set for count- 
ing sitting objects, &c. When these different sets are used the words may 
simply have different terminations, or other incorporated particles, or the 
different sets may be composed of very distinct words. Occasionally an 
extra set of numerals may be found, the name of each number being a long 
phrase or sentence descriptive of the method of counting by fingers and toes. 


26 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


The method of using the fingers and toes in counting should be care- 
fully studied and minutely explained; also the method of indicating num- 
bers to others in like manner. The most common method for counting in 

“this manner is to turn down the little finger of the left hand for one, the 
next finger in order for two, the next finger for three, the next for four, and 
the thumb for five; then the thumb of the right hand for six, &e., until the 
little finger of the right hand is turned down for ten. This may be varied 
by turning down the little finger of the right hand for six and the thumb of 
the right hand for ten. 

In indicating numbers to others by the use of the fingers the little 
finger of the left hand may be extended and the other fingers turned down 
for one; the other numbers will be expressed by extending the fingers in 
the same order in which they were turned down for counting. In counting 
by tens, the Indian may close the fingers of both hands to indicate each 
ten, or he may extend the fingers of each hand, holding them with the palms 
turned toward the person spoken to. 

In counting, some Indians resort to the fingers only, others to the 
fingers and toes. The first may result in a decimal system; the second in a 
vigesimal. All the facts relating to counting should be discovered and 
recorded it 

§ 9—_MEASURES. 

It is very desirable to discover primitive methods of measuring—that 
is, the methods used prior to the advent of the white man. Sometimes a 
finger’s length is used. In this case describe which finger is used, and how 
the measure is applied. 

A frequent method for measurement of lengths is from the extremity 
of the long finger to the first wrinkle of the wrist, 7. e., a hand. Another 
hand unit has been discovered. Having the fingers and thumb extended, 
the beginning is at the extremity of the thumb, and the string is passed 
along its outer margin to the first wrinkle of the wrist, then crossing the 
wrist along this wrinkle to the outer margin of the palm of the hand, along 
this margin to the extremity of the little finger and along the tips of the 
fingers to the extremity of the first finger, then along the outer margin of 
the first finger and inner margin of the thumb to the point of beginning; 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 27 


that is, the measure is the length of the outline of the hand. Let this be 
called “around the hand unit.” 

There is a unit of measurement used which may be represented by 
the distance from the long finger to the elbow, measured on the inside or 
outside of the arm; or it may be from the tips of the joined thumb and 
fore-finger to the elbow, measured on the inside, 7. ¢., a half arm’s length. 

Another unit used is the distance from the meeting of the tips of the 
thumb and fore-finger to the armpit—. e., an arm’s length; still another 
from the meeting of the tips of the thumb and fore-finger of one hand 
to the meeting of the tips of the thumb and fore-finger of the other hand, 
along the outstretched arms and across the breast—i. e, a double arm’s 
length. . 

Distances along the ground are often measured in paces. All the 
tribes probably have measures for circumferences, and also for quantities. 
Distances between places were measured in days’ journeys and fractions of 
days’ journeys; the latter were often indicated by pointing out some part 
of the sun’s daily path along the firmament. 


§ 10.—DIVISION OF TIME. 


Indians have many ways of dividing the year into parts; they may 
have two, three, four, or even five seasons; they may divide the year into 
thirteen moons, and, in addition to one or both of the above methods, they 
may have many ways of designating particular times—as the strawberry 
time, the hazel-nut time, the kamas root time, &c. Their methods should 
be discovered and carefully described, recording the terms. 


§ 11.—STANDARDS OF VALUE. 


One or more of the most important skins used by the Indians were 
often employed as standards of value, especially the beaver skin and the 
buckskin. Shells and other articles worked into beads and made into 
strings were also used. In some tribes eagle feathers were the standard of 
value. 

The collector should discover, if possible, what standards of value were 
used, whether one or more, and give a clear account of them, at the same 
time recording the terms used. 


28 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


§ 12. ANIMALS. 


Zoodtheism largely prevails among North American Indians—that is, 
many of their gods are animals; not the present race of animals, but the 
progenitors or prototypes of the present species. In the study of North 
American mythology it is very desirable that we know the names used 
by the Indians for the animals with which they are acquainted. It is 
manifest that from any one tribe but few of the names in the list can be 
collected, for the reason that it includes many species restricted to limited 
geographic areas. The list should be considered simply as suggestive and 
should be increased—the collector adding the names of all the animals 
known to the tribe studied. 

Sometimes the name for the ancient animal (or animal god) has a 
different termination or is denoted by some other slight change in the 
word; where this is the case the animal name used for the name of a per- 
son is the same as the name of the animal god, rather the name of the 
existing species. 

The method of distinguishing sex should also be noted, which is gen- 
erally by the use of words signifying male and female; also note the name 
of the young of each species. It is a mistake to suppose that the Indians 
have no class-names or generic terms; such terms are very common among 
them, but their methods of classification do not agree with those used by 
civilized people—that is, their generic terms embrace categories easily 
recognized by a savage people, but different from those recognized by a 
civilized people. Thus a class-name may be found to embrace those ani- 
mals which live in trees, as raccoons, porcupines, squirrels, &c.; another, 
those which burrow, as badgers, prairie-dogs, &c.; and still another, those 
which roam over the plains, as buffaloes, deer, antelope, &e. 

All animate and inanimate objects are thrown into classes, among the 
several tribes, in diverse and curious ways. Not only do the Indians have 
many class-names, but class distinctions are curiously woven into the gram- 
matic structure of their languages. An Indian system of classifying natural 
objects is a very interesting subject for study. 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 29 


PARTS OF THE BODY, ETO., OF MAMMALS. 


Having obtained the names of mammals, the student should proceed 
to obtain parts and organs of the body, and the following suggestion is 
made in the hope it may prove useful. Make a present of a beef or mut- 
ton to the Indians. This will secure their good will and obtain much 
assistance in the work, and at the same time make a special occasion for 
collecting that very interesting class of words relating to the parts and 
organs of the body. Care should be taken that the animal is dissected 
slowly, and, as the parts are given out, obtain the words called for and 
such others as may be convenient. ' 

The words can afterward be verified by killing a rabbit, squirrel, or 
other animal. 

§ 13.—_PLANTS, &c. 


The Indians have names for all the species and important varieties of 
trees and other plants with which they are acquainted. It does not seem 
best to give a specific list here, but the collector should obtain the names 
of as many plants as possible, and insert them in the schedule. The 
names of different fruits, such as berries, nuts, seeds, &c., should also be 
obtained. 

There will usually be terms signifying pine forest, oak forest, cotton- 
wood forest, &¢., which should be noted. 

The method of classifying plants also should be obtained, and the 
name of each class recorded. The Indians will have mythic stories of 
each plant with which they are familiar, explaining how and why certain 
ones were given for food, why certain plants were given for smoking, 
others as medicine, &c., and explaining the peculiarities in the habits of 
many plants, curious forms, curiously formed leaves, why some plants grow 
in water, &e. 

§ 14—GEOGRAPHIO TERMS. 


Notes should be made of such geographic terms as are found in the 
country inhabited by the tribe studied. 

Wherever a tribe of Indians yet inhabit their prisean home mythic 
stories will be found connected with and explaining every geographic 


30 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


feature with which the people are familiar, especially the mountains, rocks, 
trees, rivers, falls, springs, lakes, &e. 


§ 15.—GEOGRAPHIC NAMES. 


A very interesting field of investigation is found in learning the proper 
names given by the Indians to the several springs, rivers, lakes, mountains, 
indentations of the coast, &c., known to them. 


§16—THE FIRMAMENT, METEOROLOGIC AND OTHER PHYSICAL PHE- 
NOMENA AND OBJECTS. 


Indians usually have many names for clouds, as they are distinguished 
by color, form, &c. As full a list as possible, with description, should be 
obtained. 

In Indian mythology the stars are personages translated from the 
earth to the firmament. The personages were usually ancient animals, 
sometimes ancient men. Many interesting myths can be found concerning 
these ancient people, and why they were taken from earth to heaven. 

The names of the stars and constellations recognized by the Indians 
should be given. 

Like the stars, the sun and moon are translated personages. In every 
tribe an interesting myth may be found explaining the phases of the moon 
and the dim figures seen therein. The return of the sun and moon from 
west to east always has a mythic explanation. 


§ 17.— KINSHIP. 


Indian society is based on kinship. For this reason the terms used to 
designate kinship are of much greater importance in tribal society than in 
national society. The group of words used to designate persons by their 
degrees of relationship will constitute a valuable contribution to linguistic 
science and at the same time will be of great interest to the student of 
Indian society. 

If we take the relationships which may arise from nine generations in 
lineal descent we find their number to be very great—several thousand in 
all. A language which would attempt to give a distinct name for each par- 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 31 


ticular relationship would thus be impracticable. In overcoming this difti- 
culty two methods of designating relationships have come into use in the 
evolution of languages. The older method is that of classification, by 
which relationships are thrown into groups in various ways in different 
languages. The later method is the descriptive, in which some of the 
most fundamental relationships are named, and by the use of these names 
other relationships are described. This latter method is never the popular 
one in any language, and is only used when an attempt is made to desig- 
nate the degree of relationship with exactness. For example, in English 
there is a group of persons in a large body of kindred who are called 
- cousins. If one of these cousins should wish to be more exact in defining 
the relationships which existed between himself and the others, he would 
yi 


father’s sister’s son,” “‘my father’s sister’s daughter”; and so on with the 


say ‘my father’s brother's son,” “my father’s brother’s daughter,” “ 


cousins in his mother’s line. The system of designating these persons as 
cousins would be classificatory; the system of describing these persons by 
designating their genetic relations through the use of the fundamental terms 


’ constitutes the descriptive 


“father,” ‘‘ mother,” ‘son,” and ‘daughter,’ 
system. 

In all languages the classificatory system is the primary one, %. €¢., 
that in common use. But the methods of classification differ widely, and 
these differences are found to rest, to some extent, upon the social institu- 
tions of the people in such a manner that if the system of relationships or 
method of classifying kindred used by any tribe be known, we have a rev- 
elation of some of their most important social institutions. 

The characteristics upon which kinships are classified are as follows; 

1. Lineal generation, giving rise to father and son, grandfather and 
and grandson, great grandfather and great grandson, &c., father and 
daughter, &c., mother and son, &e., mother and daughter, &e. 

2. Collateral generation, giving rise to brothers and sisters, uncles and 
aunts, cousins, &c. 

3. Sex, by which we distinguish between father and mother, brother 
and sister, aunt and uncle, &e In some languages sex enters into the sys- 
tem of classification in a double way—that is, the sex of both parties of a 


32 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


relationship is designated by the kinship word. For example, in a case of 
two brothers and two sisters, the brothers would call each other by one 
term, the sisters each other by a second term, the brothers would call the 
sisters by a third term, and the sisters would call the brothers by a fourth 
term, so that the relationships between the four persons would require the 
use of four terms instead of two as in the English. 

4. Relative age is introduced in many languages as a distinguishing 
characteristic. For example, there will be a term for elder brother, another 
for younger brother, one for elder sister, and another for younger sister, 
and sometimes through all the cousins, of whatever remote degree they may 
be, the terms will distinguish between the elder and the younger. 

5. Assimilation in many languages is an important element in classifi- 
cation. If all the possible kinships arising from nine generations were 
thrown into classes upon the four characteristics mentioned above, the 
number of groups would still be very great, while, in fact, the number of 
groups recognized in any language is comparatively small. In the more 
civilized languages spoken by people who are organized as nations, the 
more remote relationships are ignored in the classification, and are left to 
be designated by the descriptive method; and there is a reason for this. In 
national society the remote relationships are of little importance; value 
may rarely attach to them, as in the case of inheritance, and the antiqua- 
rian may use them to trace ancestral lineage, but the people have no prac- 
tical use for them in current society and every day life. But tribal society 
is organized on kinship, and government is established to maintain the 
rights and the reciprocal duties of kinship. It thus becomes necessary in 
every tribal society that all kinships should be not only determinate but 
well known. For this reason the fifth principle of classification is intro- 
duced—that is, a few primary groups are established on the first four char- 
acteristics, and into these groups all other relationships are assimilated. 

In discovering these systems of relationship as a linguistic phenome- 
non, we infer that there is something in the social constitution of the people 
demanding such an elaborate system with relationship fixed so as to include 
all of the remotest degree within the group of people constituting the so- 
ciety. On the other hand, in studying tribal society and discovering that 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 33 


kinship is its integrating principle, we infer that the languages must con- 
tain complete methods of designating these relationships. Among many of 
the tribes of North America the subject has been investigated in both lines, 
and the inferences from one line of investigation are the observed phe- 
nomena in the other line; thus the demonstration is perfected. In tribal 
society the units are bodies of consanguineal kindred, immediate or remote, 
real or artificial; no person can become a member of a tribe until he has 
become a member of one of its gentes by being adopted into some family 
as a son, brother, or some other relation. The language of tribal society 
provides a kinship term by which every one of its members may be desig- 
nated. 

There are various methods of assimilation, and in the phenomena 
which they present many important sociologic facts are discovered. Ina 
lower status of culture than that discovered among the North American 
Indians we find that society has for its integrating principle not the ties of 
kinship but the bond of marriage; and thus we have connubial society as 
distinguished from kinship society. Though connubial society has not 
been discovered in North America, it has elsewhere on the globe, and in 
the study of the North American Indians some of the customs of that stage 
are discovered as survivals. These surviving customs are represented in 
kinship terms to varying degrees in different languages; so that in customs 
and language alike we are able to trace the steps in evolution from connu- 
bial to kinship society. 

To set forth the steps here would require greater space than the pur- 
poses of this volume will allow, and, in fact, one of the more important 
reasons for its publication is to accumulate a greater number of facts for 
the final presentation of the subject. 

But an illustration will be given: 

There is a system of marriage in the lower status of society where a 
group of brothers marry a group of sisters in common. In such a system 
children have a group of men—the brothers—as their fathers, and a group 
of women—the sisters—as their mothers, and the children of the group of 
men and women call each other brothers and sisters. 


Now in some Indian communities we find that the sisters of a married 
oS Es 


34 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


woman are considered the potential wives of her husband, and the brothers 
of a married man are considered the potential husbands of his wife. This 
potential affinity has various meanings among the different tribes where it 
is found. In some, the right of the man to his potential wives is the right 
to decide to whom they shall be given in marriage, but from them he may 
first select whom he will for his own. If these women, having married other 
persons, become widows, he again has the prior claim. A more common 
form of potential affinity is this: A man having married a woman can there- 
after acquire a second or third wife in the practice of polygamy only from 
the group of potential affinities. 

Other customs of a similar nature appear, leading to the inference that 
these people have emerged from connubial society. 

Again, in Indian languages we sometimes discover that wives and 
wives’ sisters are designated by the same kinship term; and that brothers 
and male cousins are designated by the same term; and sisters and female 
cousins are designated by the same term; and many similar facts appear 
as linguistic phenomena. 

Such are the reasons that make this subject so attractive to the stu- 
dents of Indian society and language and call for its elaborate treatment here. 

In the seventeeth schedule of the next chapter there is presented a 
series of questions the answers to which will give the kinship terms used in 
any language for which the record is made. The answers will also afford 
all of the facts necessary to determine the system of kinship classification 
belonging to the language. 

To assist the student in filling out the schedule four charts have been 
prepared, and accompany this volume. 

In charts numbered I, IJ, and III, the kindred are grouped about a 
central person, designated as ‘ Self,” on Chart No. I. 

Chart No. II belongs properly on the left of Chart No. I and is a con- 
tinuation of it. In like manner Chart No. III is a continuation of Chart 
No. I to the right. 

With “Self” the following classes of kinships may exist: 

1. Revatives.—Consanguineal kindred, those which arise from genetic 
kinship.

2. Arrinities.—Kindred by marriage. These are of two classes: 
a. Those which arise from the marriage of the relatives of ‘ Self.” 
b. Those which arise from the marriage of ‘ Self.” 
Those classes of kinships will be treated of severally in the order 
above mentioned. 
The personal figures used on the charts are as follows: 


represents a male relative. 


represents a female relative. 


represents a male affinity. 


represents a female affinity. 


represents a female relative of affinity.

“ Self” is in the center of Chart No. 1, and must be used, as will here- 
after be seen, in one set of questions as a male person, in another set of 
questions as a female person. 

Each relative is paired with an affinity, except in certain cases here- 
after explained. The relatives only are numbered, but the same numbers 
are to be used for the corresponding affinities. 

The relatives on the charts are numbered to correspond with the 


relatives in the schedule. 
RELATIVES. 


From the study of many tribes in North America, it has been found 
necessary to extend the investigation of kinship terms to the group of 
people that may possibly arise from nine lineal generations, four below 
“Self” and four above. All the groups are established within five genera- 
tions, two above “Self” and two below, but the third and fourth below and 


36 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


the third and fourth above, with their collateral lines, are necessary for the 
purpose of discovering the method of assimilation. The kinships are 
grouped in the schedules and on the charts in the following manner: 

1. Lineal descendants of ‘‘Self.” 

2. Lineal ascendants of ‘“‘Self.” 

3. The first collateral line in two branches—the brother’s branch, and 
the sister’s branch. 

4. The second collateral line in two branches—the father’s branch, 
including father’s brothers and sisters, with their descendants, and mother’s 
branch, including mother’s brothers and sisters, with their descendants. 

5. Third collateral line in two branches—father’s parents’ branch, 
which include the brothers and sisters of father’s parents with their de- 
scendants; and mother’s parents’ branch, which includes the brothers and 
sisters of mother’s parents with their descendants. 

6. Fourth collateral line in two branches. In these fourth collateral 
lines, from the vast number of relationships that might be placed on the 
chart, only a very few have been given—just sufficient to exhibit the 
method of assimilation. 

In some languages a part of the lexical elements are duplicated—that 
is, some terms that are used by males cannot by Indian customs be used 
by females, and some terms used by females cannot be used by males, thus 
giving rise to a duplicate series of words—man words and woman words. 
In some of these languages a brother and sister designate their father by dif- 
ferent names, their mother by different names, and many or all other kinships | 
in like manner. A similar duplication of terms is found in many other parts 
of the language, and should everywhere be carefully noted by the collector. 

This state of facts appearing in some languages, it becomes necessary 
to duplicate the set of questions, the first list being ‘‘Self,” a male, the 
second list being ‘‘Self,” a female. The student will soon discover whether 
two sets of words are used. If this characteristic is found, it will be neces- 
sary to go through with both sets carefully. When but one set of words 
is discovered the answers to the second set of questions will be exact dupli- 
cates of the first, and the student may proceed with the second only far 
enough to fully demonstrate the fact.

AFFINITIES OF RELATIVES. 


The affinities of relatives are the wives and husbands of the relatives 
of “self” In the schedule the questions for this class of affinities are 
arranged under two sets of numbers, the first with “self,” a male, and the 
second with “self,” a female, as in the case of relatives. On the chart 
the affinities with them are placed beside the relatives, wife by husband, 
husband by wife. The numbers given to the relatives serve also for the 
affinities. It is not necessary to call for affinities to the extent to which the 
schedule calls for Relatives. For this reason some numbers are omitted 
from the schedules and certain personal figures from the charts. 


AFFINITIES OF “SELF,” OR THE RELATIVES OF THE HUSBAND OR WIFE OF “SELF.” 


In the schedule a fifth series of questions appear under this head, and 
the corresponding persons appear on Chart No. IV. These are divided 
again by numbers into two sets, one with “self,” a male, the other with 
“self,” a female. 

A very little examination on the part of the student will lead toa 
thorough understanding of this subject, and the use of the charts, and he 
will find the charts of great assistance to him in studying and following the 
questions. But when he comes to interrogate Indians on the subject he 
will find them of the greatest value. Any intelligent Indian will quickly 
understand them, for the plan is in harmony with his own method of 
expressing ideas by picture-writings. 

In some Indian languages there are certain words used for the names 
of children, given them in the order of their birth, so that the child’s 
name indicates the order of its birth. There are two sets of these words, 
one set being given to males, the other to females: thus, if the first born 
is a boy, he takes his name from the male set ; if a girl, her name from the 
female set; these words will therefore have the signification of first born, 
second born, third born, ete., though the numerals may not enter into their 
composition. There may be variations of this plan. 

If such a system is not found, erase ‘“‘is named” from the schedule 
and obtain the equivalent of the phrase thus changed. 


38 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


§18.—SOCIAL ORGANIZATION. 


In this paper the term family will be used as synonymous with house- 
hold; that is, it will designate the group of persons occupying one lodge, or 
one set of compartments in a pueblo. Among some of the tribes of North 
America the head of the family is a woman; among other tribes the head 
of a family is a man, and these distinctions enter largely into tribal society 
and government. ‘Is fatherhood or motherhood the source of authority ?” 
is the first question to be asked in the study of the sociology of an Indian 
tribe. 

A group of relatives tracing a common lineage to some remote ances- 
tor constitutes a gens or clan. In the tribes where mother-right prevails 
this lineage is traced through the female; where father-right prevails, 
through the male. In the first case the children belong to the gens of the 
mother; in the second to the gens of the father. The gens is the grand 
unit of social organization, and, for many purposes, is the basis of govern- 
mental organization. The gentile organization is widely spread and may 
be universal. It has often been overlooked even by those well acquainted 
with the Indians among tribes where we now know that it prevails. Many 
rights and duties inhere in the gens. 

The following lines of inquiry will generally lead to the discovery of 
the gens and the words called for. 

It is the duty of the gens to avenge the murder of or personal injuries 
to any of its members. Again, a man may not marry in his own gens. 
With Indians skilled in picture-writing, the emblem of the gentile name, 
that is, the totem, is usually painted or carved on their lodges and on valu- 
able articles of property, and it is often inscribed on documents, such as 
messages, treaties, &c. The larger tribes of the United States usually 
camp in gentile groups arranged in some definite order. So far as our 
knowledge now extends, every gens takes the name of its tutelar god— 
some ancestor deified, ancient mythical animal, or nature-god. As the prin- 
cipal gods of most of the Indian tribes are animals, that is, mythical animals, 
the progenitors or prototypes of the present animals, the gentes are usually 
given animal names; thus bear-gens, wolf-gens, rabbit-gens, eagle-gens, 
hawk-gens, &e., are common. The flesh of the animal for which the gens was 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 39 


named, or some portion of it, was held sacred by its members and could not 
be eaten by them. In some tribes it is customary to say that a man isa wolf, 
a bear, a rabbit, or a hawk, as the case may be, meaning that he belongs 
to that gens; and the gens as a body of people are spoken of as the descend- 
ants of the bear, the wolf, the rabbit, or sometimes as relatives of the bear, 
the wolf, or the hawk. 

Sometimes gentes are subdivided, a part of the rights and duties remain- 
ing with the gens and a part being transferred to the sub-gens. Where the 
gentes are divided, the sub-gentes should also be given. Sometimes two or 
more gentes constitute a higher group—the phratry. The phratries as 
organized societies usually control the great “medicines,” the dances, festi- 
vals, &c. It seems probable that these phratries were originally gentes, 
and that the gentes of which they are now composed were first divided as 
sub-gentes, but the differentiation has extended so far that the bond of 
union between the ancient gentes has been lost except in its mythologic 
and religious elements. If gentes are grouped as phratries, the system of 
grouping should be given in detail. 

The tribal organization is universal. Itis usually composed of a number 
of gentes. Primitively, each tribe claimed a district of country as its home, 
and usually took the name of that country as its tribal name, so that its 
name was its title deed to its land. But many sobriquets or nicknames 
were used; as we call an Illinoisan a Sucker, an Ohioan a Buckeye. So- 
briquets were given to indicate customs or peculiarities of the people, as 
dog-eaters, acorn-eaters, fish-eaters, &c., white-knives, reed-knives, long- 
knives, &c. Usually tribes were known by different sobriquets among dif- 
ferent people. In many instances the names by which tribes are known to 
white men are corrupted sobriquets. Much difficulty will usually be found 
in obtaining the true or land name of a tribe, from the fear that it may be 
used to the disadvantage of the people through methods of sorcery. And 
again, where Indians have been removed from their ancient homes, these 
names rapidly become obsolete, but they should be obtained when possible. 
The sobriquets which they recognize should also be obtained, and the names 
by which they designate surrounding tribes should be recorded. 

Tribes, especially those speaking the same language, or kindred dia- 


40 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


lects, are sometimes united into confederacies, and tribes or confederacies 
are sometimes united into leagues for temporary purposes. The boundary 
line between confederacy and league cannot be definitely drawn. The 
common noun for tribe and confederacy, or league, is not always discovered 
with ease. On the other hand, the proper noun for the tribe, confederacy, 
or league, is not always easily discovered. Perhaps the proper noun and 
common noun for confederacy and league are always the same. 

Indian people usually have a word signifying ‘one of us,” or “a per- 
son of our tribe, or confederacy ;” one signifying “Indian,” another signify- 
ing ‘white man.” Among southwestern tribes two such terms are used, 
one denoting those who came from the south—chiefly Spaniards—and 
another denoting those who came from the east. 

The institution of fellowhood is widely spread. This custom may be 
briefly described as follows: Two young men agree to be life friends, 
‘‘more than brothers” to each other, like David and Jonathan, and Damon 
and Pythias. They reveal to each other all their secrets, perform religious 
rites together, and eachis sworn to defend the other from all harm. 


§ 19.—GOV ERNMENT. 


In Indian government civil and military affairs are differentiated. 
The organization for civil government will first be explained. 

Among those tribes whose numbers are large, the gentile organization 
is at the basis of civil government. A council is the legislature and court 
of the gens, of the tribe, and the confederacy, respectively. It might be better 
to say that the council is the court whose decisions are law. The council of 
the gens is composed of the heads of its families, and selects the gentile 
chief. If mother-right prevails the gentile council may be composed of 
women, and the elected chief, who is a man. This chief will not be the 
husband of any of the heads of households, but must be a brother or 
son. If father-right prevails the council will be composed exclusively of 
men. ‘The council of the tribe seems to be constituted in various ways, 
sometimes of the gentile counselors united, sometimes of the gentile chiefs 
united, or in other ways. There may also be a grand council of the tribe 
composed of all of the heads of households. The presiding officer of the 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 41 


tribal council is also chief of the tribe. The organization of the tribal 
council should be carefully studied and recorded. 

Among the very small tribes the gentile organization seems to be of 
minor importance. In fact, the social organization and government of 
these tribes is but poorly understood. 

For military affairs there is an especial military council, composed of 
the warriors of the tribe. The war chief may be elected, but usually this 
chieftaincy is hereditary in some one of the gentes. Rarely the civil chief 
is war chief, but never by virtue of his civil rank. 

The principal crimes recognized among the Indians are murder, maim- 
ing of various kinds, assault, theft, adultery, witchcraft, and treason, both 
against gens and the tribe. The names of crimes, together with methods 
of procedure and proof in prosecution, should be discovered and recorded 


§ 20.—RELIGION. 


Some of the Indians have nature-gods, 7. e., a god of the east, a god of 
the west, a god of the north, and a god of the south; a god of rain, a god 
of thunder, the sun, moon, stars, &c. As stated elsewhere, the greater 
number of their gods are animals—the progenitors or prototypes of the 
present species. They also have daimon gods, 7. e., the gods or presiding 
spirits of rivers, lakes, springs, mountains, corn, beans, &c. Many hero 
gods are worshiped—wonderful people of the long ago. The names of ail 
such gods should be discovered and recorded when possible. 

On inquiring of the Indians about their gods, the term ‘‘god” should 
not be used, for by this they understand the God of the white man. Their 
generic or class-name for god is often a term signifying ‘‘the ancients” —those 
who lived long ago—or some equivalent expression. Inquire, then, for won- 
derful ancient people, wonderful ancient animals; the first people, the first 
animals. The student of Indian languages can do royal service to eth- 
nology by stopping now and then in his linguistic work to record the inter- 
esting stories which the more intelligent Indians may be induced to relate 
concerning the wonderful personages of their mythology. Nor should 
these stories be neglected because of their simplicity, inconsistency, or 
vulgarity. 


42 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


Indian dances are generally of a religious character, and, with their 
names, a brief description should be given. A blank is left in the schedule 
for the names of gods, dances, songs, &e. 


§ 21—MORTUARY CUSTOMS, Sc. 


The mortuary customs of the Indians are of great significance to the 
ethnologist. The student who is pursuing his researches in this field should 
carefully note all of the customs, superstitions, and opinions of the Indians 
relating to— : 

1. The care of the lifeless body prior to burial, much of which he will 
find elaborated into ceremonies. 

2. He should observe the method of burial, including the site, the 
attitude in which the body is placed, and the manner in which it is invest- 
ured. Here, also, he will find interesting and curious ceremonial observ- 
ances. ‘The superstitions and opinions of the people relating to these sub- 
jects are of importance. 

3. He should carefully observe the gifts offered to the dead; not only 
those placed with the body at the time of burial, but those offered at a 
subsequent time for the benefaction of the departed on his way to the other 
world, and for his use on arrival. Here, too, it is as important for us to 
know the ceremonies with which the gifts are made as to know the char- 
acter of the gifts themselves. 

4. An interesting branch of this research relates to the customs of 
mourning, embracing the time of mourning, the habiliments, the self- 
mutilations, and other penances, and the ceremonies with which these are 
accompanied. In all of these cases the reason assigned by the Indians for 
their doings and their superstitions are of prime importance. 

5. It is desirable to obtain from the Indians their explanation of human 
life, their theory of spirits, and of the life to come. 

The following methods of burying the dead have been discovered : 

1. By inhumation in pits, graves, holes in the ground, mounds, cists, 
and caves. 

2. By cremation, generally on the surface of the earth, occasionally 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 43 


beneath, the resulting bones or ashes being placed in pits in the ground, in 
boxes placed on scaffolds or trees, in urns, sometimes scattered. 

3. By embalmment or a process of mummifying, the remains being 
afterwards placed in the earth, caves, mounds, or charnel-houses. 

4. By erial sepulture, the bodies being deposited on scaffolds or trees, 
in boxes or canoes, the two latter receptacles supported on scaffolds or posts, 
or on the ground. Occasionally baskets have been used to contain the 
remains of children, these being hung to trees. 

5. By aquatic burial, beneath the water or in canoes which were turned 
adrift. 

Some tribes periodically collect the bones of the dead and bury them 
in common ossuaries. 


§ 22.—_MEDICINE. 


Among Indians the practice of medicine is usually the practice of sor- 
cery. Diseases are not understood to be the result of the improper work- 
ing of the bodily functions, but are believed to be entities—the evil spirits 
that take possession of the body. Often these evil spirits have definite 
forms assigned them, as spiders, crickets, frogs, grasshoppers, &c. The 
practice of medicine is largely the practice of the driving away of evil spirits. 
There may, to a limited extent, be an objective understanding of diseases, 
and, perhaps, objective remedies employed. 

Diseases are also attributed to malign influences due to the failure to 
perform religious duties, or to the non-observance of curious prohibitions. 
To a very large extent diseases are attributed to the practice of witchcraft. 

The study of this subject, therefore, involves the study of the theory 
of life, both that of man and that of animals; of the theory of diseases as 
spiritism and as arising from malign influences due to the neglect of ceremo- 
nies, the failure to comply with prohibitions, &c., and to the study of 
witchcraft. 

The medicine-man is both priest and physician. To some extent there 
may be special medicines for special diseases, but to a very large extent 
each medicine man has some great medicine, which cures all diseases and 
other evils, and has the further virtue of bringing ‘“ luck.” 


44 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


Often the virtue of medicine lies in the ceremonies with which it is 
made, and, still further, the ceremonies with which it is administered. 

Some of the great medicines are compounded of many ingredients. 
The composition and preparation of medicines are often held as profound 
secrets. 

Medicines are prepared not only to drive away diseases, but to bring 
success in enterprise, as in war, hunting, &e. 

With many tribes the phratries are secret medical societies, each one of 
which is charged with the preparation and custody of some important medi- 
cine, the preparation of which is concluded with a great festival, to which 
the entire tribe is invited. 

§ 23.— AMUSEMENTS. 

Indian children play with stilts, bows and arrows, and slings; they 
make dolls, play-houses, and in clay, baked or unbaked, make imitations 
of various domestic utensils, and forms of prepared food. They have many 
sports in mimicry of the habits of animals. 

Among the adults gambling is largely practiced. The simple game of 
“‘kill-the-bone” is the most widely spread. It consists essentially in guess- 
ing in which hand one of two little bones is held, the one being marked, 
but it is attended with much ceremony, singing, mimicry, and gesticulation. 
But many other gambling games are practiced. There are a variety of 
games of skill and athletic sports that are practiced, especially at their 
festivals, and often gens contend with gens, or phratry with phratry. 

Many periodically recurring festivals are observed. These consist of 
feasts, with dancing accompanied by music, vocal and instrumental. All 
of these festivals are of a religious character, and the ceremonies performed 
are very elaborate and curious. The ceremony at a festival is often a crude 
theatrical performance, where individuals act as characters, especially as 
the mythic animals of their religion. The personification is assisted by the 
use of masks and various devices of costume. 

The names of games, the implements used, and the plan of the play 
should all be recorded. 

One of the most important points to be observed is the relation of these 
games to medicine and religious festivals. 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 45 


The names and import of festivals should be recorded. Plays, with 
their plans and characters, should be given. 

The chief musical instruments of the Indians are rattles, bells, drums, 
and whistles. The most common form of a rattle is a gourd shell, which is 
often highly ornamented. Bells are made of strings of deer claws, strings 
of bones, strings of shells, &c. A drum is sometimes a log beaten with a 
stick. Sometimes a section of a log is somewhat hollowed so as to form a 
ponderous bowl. Basket bowls covered within and without with pitch are 
also used. Sometimes this basket bowl is inverted over a hole dug in the 
ground. There is sometimes an addition to this last musical instrument. 
The player uses a stick two or three feet long, deeply notched, and places 
one end upon the inverted bowl and the other against his stomach, and 
with his hands plays another stick up and down over the notches. A 
variety of crude tambourines and drums are uséd. Whistles are made of 
reeds and hollow stems of wood. 

Every tribe has a great number of simple songs. Very little of value 
is known of the vocal music of the Indians, as their musical scale or scales 
are not yet determined. 

Every tribe has a number of dances. The time and movement of 
these dances should be studied. 

Dancing with music, instrumental and vocal, is the principal amuse- 
ment at the frequent festivals or feasts held by every tribe. As each 
phratry is charged with the maintenance of certain great medicine festivals, 
so each phratry is the custodian of certain songs and dances, which are usu- 
ally held sacred. 

Musical instruments should be described and their names recorded. 

Songs should be collected in the native tongue. Dances should be 
described, and the names of dances given. 


§ 24._NEW WORDS. 


The schedules corresponding with the preceding sections call for words 
which the Indian possessed prior to his association with the whiteman. But 
since the first settlement of this continent from Europe the mental life of 
the Indian has rapidly changed. His original home on shores, in valleys, 


46 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


on mountains, has been changed, and he has been placed under new phys- 
ical environments. The force of acculturation under the overwhelming 
presence of millions of civilized people has wrought great changes. Primi- 
tive Indian society has either been modified or supplanted, primitive relig- 
ions have been changed, primitive arts lost, and, in like manner, primitive 
languages have not remained unmodified. The period of European asso- 
ciation has been one of rapid growth and development, especially in the 
accumulation of new words. 

The Indian method of coining new words and adapting old words to 
new uses is an interesting branch of philologic study. Hence, a long list of 
such names are called for in Schedule 24. 


REMARKS ON NOUNS. 


Twenty-four schedules are given to the collection of nouns. 

There are some characteristics of Indian nouns that may well receive 
some explanation here. 

“Little” is a surname often found among English-speaking people. 
By its use the persons to whom it is applied are named, but not described. 
Should we meet with a similar appellation in an Indian tongue, the person 
named would also be described. Personal names and all other names are, 
to a large extent, descriptive in Indian tongues. In denoting the person or 
thing, they connote characteristics, qualities, &c. That is, in the Indian 
tongues, as compared with the civilized tongues, names are excessively con- 
notive, and this appears in their morphology, as many names are found to 
be phrases, clauses, or even sentences. The name of the bear may be 
‘he who seizes” or “the one with the brown nose”; the name of the wolf 
may be “the prowler,” “the roamer,” “ or the “howler.” Like illustrations 
are found on every hand. 

Again, names are often compounded of other names, with adjectives, 
verbs, and prepositions. 
§ 25—NUMBER AND GENDER OF NOUNS—DEMONSTRATIVE AND AD- 

JECTIVE PRONOUNS. 

In Indian languages gender is usually something more than a distinc- 

tion of sex. The primary classification of objects is usually into animate 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 47 


and inanimate. In some few languages the animate gender is again divided 
into male and female, but sometimes the genders of Indian tongues are 
very elaborate and curious. As these distinctions belong chiefly to the 
personal and article pronouns, they will be hereafter more fully explained 
in treating of those subjects. 

There are usually three numbers—singular, dual, and plural—though 
often the dual number pertains only to the pronoun. In nouns sometimes 
the names of animate objects only are changed to express number. Nouns 
are rarely varied to denote case. This subject belongs to the pronouns. 
Schedule 25 will draw out the principal facts necessary to a proper under- 
standing of these matters. At the same time the student will have discoy- 
ered some of the demonstrative and adjective pronouns. 


§ 26—PERSONAL AND ARTICLE PRONOUNS—TRANSITIVE VERBS. 


In the pronouns we often have the most difficult part*of an Indian 
language. Pronouns are only to a limited extent independent words. 

Among the free pronouns the student must early learn to distinguish 
between the personal and the demonstrative. 'The demonstrative pronouns 
are more commonly used. The Indian is more accustomed to say this per- 
son or thing, that person or thing, than he, she, or it. In the preceding 
schedule the student has obtained the demonstrative pronouns. Among the 
free personal pronouns the student may find an equivalent of the pronoun 
“J.” another signifying “I and you;” perhaps another signifying ‘I and 
he,” and one signifying ‘“ we,” 
those present; and another including the speaker and persons absent. He 


more than two, including the speaker and 


will also find personal pronouns in the second and third person, perhaps 
with singular, dual, and plural forms. 

To a large extent the pronouns are incorporated in the verbs as pre- 
fixes, infixes, or suffixes. In such cases we will call them article pronouns. 
These article pronouns point out with great particularity the person, num- 
ber, and gender both of subject and object, and sometimes of the indirect 
object. When the article pronouns are used the personal pronouns may 
or may not be used; but it is believed that the personal pronouns will 
always be found. Article pronouns may not always be found. In those 
languages which are characterized by them they will be used alike when 


48 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


the subject and object nouns are expressed and when they are not. The 
student may at first find some difficulty with these article pronouns. Sin- 
gular, dual, and plural forms will be found. Sometimes distinct incorporated 
particles will be used for subject and object, but often this will not be the 
case. If the subject only is expressed, one particle may be used; if the 
object only is expressed, another particle; but if subject and object are 
expressed, an entirely different particle may stand for both. 

But it is in the genders of these article pronouns that the greatest diffi- 
culty may be found. The student must entirely free his mind of the idea that 
gender is simply a distinction of sex. In Indian tongues, genders usually are 
methods of classification primarily into animate and inanimate. The animate 
may be again divided into male and female, but this is rarely the case. Often 
by these genders all objects are classified on characteristics found in their atti- 
tudes or supposed constitution. Thus we may have the animate and inani- 
mate, one or both, divided into the standing, the sitting, and the lying; or they 
may be divided into the watery, the mushy, the earthy, the stony, the woody, and 
the fleshy. The gender of these article pronouns has rarely been worked 
out in any language. The extent to which these classifications enter into 
the article pronouns is not well known. The subject requires more thor- 
ough study. These incorporated particles are here called article pronouns. 
In the conjugation of the verb they take an important part, and have by 
some writers been called transitions. Besides pointing out with particu- 
larity the person, number, and gender of the subject and object, they per- 
form the same offices that are usually performed by those inflections of the 
verb that occur to make them agree in gender, number, and person with 
the subject. In those Indian languages where the article pronouns are not 
found, and the personal pronouns only are used, the verb is usually in- 
flected to agree with the subject or object, or both, in the same particulars. 

The article pronouns, as they point out person, number, gender, and 
case of the subject and object, are not simple particles, but to a greater or 
lesser extent compound; their component elements may be broken apart 
and placed in different parts of the verb. Again, the article pronoun in 
some languages may have its elements combined into a distinct word 
in such a manner that it will not be incorporated in the verb, but will be 


co 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 49 


placed immediately before it. For this reason the term “article pronoun” 
has been chosen rather than ‘‘attached pronoun.” The older term, transi- 
tion, was given to them because of their analogy in function to verbal 
inflections. 

The personal and article pronouns can best be studied in connection with 
the transitive verbs with which they are used. 


§ 27.—POSSESSION. 


Possession is usually indicated by the use of possessive pronouns, 
personal or article. Usually the possessive pronouns differ but little from 
the personal pronouns. Nouns rarely or never have possessive forms, the 
method being to say “John his horse,” rather than ‘John’s horse.” Two 
characters of possession are recognized in Indian tongues, natural and arti- 
ficial. Natural possession is inherent possession; that which is possessed 


” “my father,” “my mother.” 


cannot be transferred, as ‘‘my hand,” “‘my eye, 
Artificial possession is accidental; the thing possessed may be transferred, 
as ‘‘my hat,” ‘‘my horse.” 

These classes of possession will appear in the use of two distinct forms 
of possessive pronouns. 

Possession is usually affirmed by the use of a verb signifying to have 
or to possess, and natural possession may be predicated with one verb, and 
artificial possession with another. 

There is still another way of affirming possession. The noun which 
is the name of the article possessed will have attached to it a particle pred- 
icating possession, and this particle may be changed or modified to denote 
mode, tense, &c.: and, finally, we may have the noun, which is the name 
of the thing possessed, varied to denote person, number, and gender of 
the possessor, the noun itself varied to denote person, number, and gender 
of the thing possessed, and the attached predicating particle varied to denote 
mode and tense, all constituting one word. 

§ 28.-INTRANSITIVE VERBS—ADJECTIVES, ADVERBS, PREPOSITIONS, 
AND NOUNS USED AS VERBS. 
The verb is relatively of much greater importance in an Indian tongue 


than in a civilized language. To a large extent the pronoun is incorpo-

50 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


rated in the: verb as explained above, and thus constitutes a part of its 
conjugation. 

Again, adjectives are used as intransitive verbs, as in most Indian 
languages there is no verb ‘to be” used as a predicant or copula. Where in 
English we would say “the man is good,” the Indian would say ‘“‘that man 
good,” using the adjective as an intransitive verb, é. e, as a predicant. If 
he desired to affirm it in the past tense, the intransitive verb ‘‘ good” would 
be inflected, or otherwise modified, to indicate the tense; and so, in like 
manner, all adjectives when used to predicate can be modified to indicate 
mode, tense, number, person, &c., as other intransitive verbs. 

Comparison of adjectives may be effected by inflections, by the use 
of incorporated particles, by the use of independent words, or by para- 
phrastic expressions. 

Adverbs are used as intransitive verbs. In English we may say ‘he 
is there”; the Indian would say ‘that person there,” usually preferring the 
demonstrative to the personal pronoun. The adverb “there” would, there- 
fore, be used as a predicant or intransitive verb, and might be conjugated 
to denote different modes, tenses, numbers, persons, &c. Verbs will often 
receive adverbial qualifications by the use of incorporated particles, and, 
still further, verbs may contain within themselves adverbial limitations 
without our being able to trace such meanings to any definite particles or 
parts of the verb. 

The comparison of adverbs may be effected by inflections, by incor- 
porated particles, by the use of distinct words, or by paraphrastic expres- 
sions. 

Prepositions are transitive verbs. In English we may say “the hat is 
on the table”; the Indian would say “that hat on table”; or he might 
change the order and say “that hat table on”; but the preposition “on” 
would be used as an intransitive verb to predicate and may be conjugated. 
Prepositions may often be found as particles incorporated in verbs, and, 
still further, verbs may contain within themselves prepositional meanings 
without our being able to trace such meanings to any definite particles 
within the verb. But the verb connotes such ideas that something is needed 
to complete its meaning, that something being a limiting or qualifying 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 51 


word, phrase, or clause. Prepositions may be prefixed, infixed, or suffixed 
to nouns; i. @., they may be particles incorporated in nouns. 

Nouns may be used as intransitive verbs under the circumstances when 
in English we would use a noun as the complement of a sentence after the 
verb ‘‘to be.” 

The verb, therefore, often includes within itself subject, direct object, 
indirect object, qualifier, and relation-idea. Thus it is that the study of 
an Indian language is, to a large extent, the study of its verbs. 

From the remarks above, it will be seen that Indian verbs often include 
within themselves meanings which in English are expressed by adverbs 
and adverbial phrases and clauses. Thus the verb may express within itself 
direction, manner, instrument, and purpose, one or all, as the verb ‘to go” 
may be represented by a word signifying ‘go home”; another, “go away 
from home”; another, ‘go to a place other than home”; another, “ go from 
a place other than home; one, “go from this place,” without reference to 
home; one, ‘‘to go up”; another, “to go down”; one, ‘‘ go around”; and, 
perhaps, there will be a verb ‘‘go up hill”; another, “go up a valley”; 
another, “go up ariver,” &c. Then we may have “to go on foot,” ‘to go 
on horseback,” ‘to go in a canoe”; still another, “to go for water”; another, 
“for wood,” &c. Distinct words may be used for all these, or a fewer 
number used, and these varied by incorporated particles. In like manner, 
the English verb “to break” may be represented by several words, each of 
which will indicate the manner of performing the act or the instrument with 
which it is done. Distinct words may be used, or a common word varied 
with incorporated particles. 

The verb ‘to strike,” which appears so often in the schedule, may be 
represented by several words, as signifying severally “to strike with the 
fist,” “to strike with a club,” “to strike with the open hand,” ‘‘to strike 
with a whip,” “to strike with a switch”, to strike with a flat instrument,” 
&e. A common word may be used with incorporated particles or entirely 
different words used. 


§ 29—VOICE, MODE, AND TENSE. 


The student will find the passive voice an interesting subject of study, 
as in most languages there is no verb “‘to be” with which it can be formed; 


52 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


and in those languages where a verb ‘to be” has been partially developed 
it is probably never used to form the passive voice. The most common 
method of forming the passive voice is to use an indefinite subject signify- 
ing ‘some one” or “something,” and to place what in English would be 
the subject of the verb immediately before the verb in the objective case. 
Other indirect methods are used. 

The student will probably find a middle or reflexive voice, i. e., a form of 
the verb which is used when the subject is represented as acting upon itself; 
as, I strike myself; he cuts himself. 

A reciprocal voice may also be found, @. e., a form of the verb which is 
used to denote that the persons or things of a plural subject act upon each 
other; as, they kick each other; they cut each other. This form of the 
verb will often be used in speaking of games and sports, for the purpose of 
showing that parties strive with each other. 

Mode in an Indian tongue is a rather difficult subject. Modes anala- 
gous to those of civilized tongues are found, and many conditions and 
qualifications appear in the verb which in English and other civilized lan- 
guages appear as adverbs, and adverbial phrases and clauses. No plane of 
separation can be drawn between such adverbial qualifications and true 
modes. Thus there may be a form of the verb which shows that the 
speaker makes a declaration as certain, 7. ¢., an indicative mode; another 
which shows that the speaker makes a declaration with doubt; 7. ¢., a dubi- 
tative mode; another that he makes a declaration on hearsay, 7. e., a quotative 
mode; another form will be used in making a command, giving an imperative 
mode; another in imploration, 7. e., an implorative mode; another form to 
denote permission, 7. @., a permissive mode; another in negation, 7. e, a nega- 
tive mode; another form will be used to indicate that the action is simulta- 
neous with some other action, 7. ¢., a simultative mode; another to denote 


desire or wish that something be done, i. ¢., a desiderative mode; another : 
that the action ought to be done, 7%. ¢., an obligative mode; another that 
action is repeated from time to time, @. ¢., a frequentative mode; another that 
action is caused, 7. e., a causative mode; ete. 
These forms of the verb, which we are compelled to call modes, are of 
great number. Usually with each of them a particular modal particle or 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 53 


incorporated adverb will be used; but the particular particle which gives 
the qualified meaning may not always be discovered; and in one language 
a different word will be introduced where in another the same word will be 
used with an incorporated particle. 

It is stated in section 28 that incorporated particles may be used to 
indicate direction, manner, instrument, and purpose ; in fact, any adverbial 
qualification whatever may be made by an incorporated particle instead of 
an adverb as a distinct word. No line of demarkation can be drawn 
between these adverbial particles and those mentioned above as modal 
particles. Indeed, it seems best to treat all these forms of the verb arising 
from incorporated particles as distinct modes. In this sense, then, an Indian 
language has a multiplicity of modes. It should be further remarked that 
in many cases these modal or adverbial particles are excessively worn, so 
that they may appear as additions or changes of simple vowel or consonant 
sounds. When incorporated particles are thus used, distinct adverbial 
words, phrases, or clauses may also be employed, and the idea expressed 
twice. 

It will usually be found difficult to elaborate a system of tenses in 
paradigmatic form. The student will find a great many tenses or time par- 
ticles incorporated in verbs. Some of these time particles will be excess- 
ively worn, and may appear rather as inflections than as incorporated 
particles. Usually rather distinct present, past, and future tenses will be 
discovered ; often a remote or ancient past, and less often an immediate 
future. But great specification of time in relation to the present and in 
relation to other times will usually be found. All these time particles 
should be worked out and their meaning and use recorded. 

It was seen above that adverbial particles cannot be separated from 
modal particles. In like manner tense particles cannot be separated from 
adverbial and modal particles. 

In an Indian language adverbs are differentiated only to a limited 
extent. Adverbial qualifications are found in the verb, and thus there are 
a multiplicity of modes and tenses, and no plane of demarkation can be 
drawn between mode and tense. From preceding statements it will appear 


54 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


that a verb in an Indian tongue may have incorporated with it a great 
variety of particles, which can be arranged in three general classes, 7 e., 
pronominal, adverbial, and prepositional. 

The pronominal particles we have called article pronouns; they serve 
to point out a variety of characteristics in the subject, object, and indirect 
object of the verb. They thus subserve purposes which in English are 
subserved by differentiated adjectives as distinct parts of speech. They 
might, therefore, with some propriety have been called adjective particles; 
but these elements perform another function; they serve the purpose which 
is usually called ‘agreement in language”; that is, they make the verb 
agree with the subject and object, and thus indicate the syntactic relation 
between subject, object, and verb. In this sense they might with propriety 
have been called relation particles, and doubtless this function was in mind 
when some of the older grammarians called them transitions. 

The adverbial particles perform the functions of voice, mode, and 
tense, together with many other functions that are performed in languages 
spoken by more highly civilized people by differentiated adverbs, adverbial 
phrases and clauses. 

The prepositional particles perform the function of indicating a great 
variety of subordinate relations, like the prepositions used as distinct parts 
of speech in English. 

By the demonstrative function of some of the pronominal particles they 
are closely related to adverbial particles, and adverbial particles are closely 
related to prepositional particles, so that it will be sometimes difficult to say 
of a particular particle whether it be pronominal or adverbial, and of another 
particular particle whether it be adverbial or prepositional. 

Thus the three classes of particles are not separated by absolute planes 
of demarkation. 

The use of these particles as parts of the verb; the use of nouns, 
adjectives, adverbs, and prepositions as intransitive verbs; and the direct 
use of verbs as nouns, adjectives, and adverbs, make the study of an Indian 
tongue to a large extent the study of its verbs. 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 55 


§ 30.—ADDITIONAL INVESTIGATIONS SUGGESTED. 


Should the student pursue his investigation beyond the limits indi- 
cated by the schedules, it is very desirable that he should be on the lookout 
for certain linguistic phenomena that have received no mention in the fore- 
going sections. 

To set forth what is meant in a manner that may be understood some 
explanation seems necessary. 

Possible ideas and thoughts are vast in number. A distinct word for 
every distinct idea and thought would require a vast vocabulary. The 
problem in language is to express many ideas and thoughts with compara- 
tively few words. 

Again, in the evolution of any language progress is from a condition 
where few ideas are expressed by a few words to a higher, where many 
ideas are expressed by the use of many words ; but the number of all pos- 
sible ideas or thoughts expressed is increased greatly out of proportion 
with the increase of the number of words. 

And still again, in all of those languages which have been most 
thoroughly studied, and by inference in all languages, it appears that the 
few original words used in any language remain as the elements for the 
greater number finally used. In the evolution of a language the introduc- 
tion of absolutely new material is a comparatively rare phenomenon. The 
old material is combined and modified in many ways to form the new. 

How has the small stock of words found as the basis of a language 
been thus combined and modified? 

The way in which the old materials have been used gives rise to what 
will here be denominated THE GRaMMATIC PROCESSES. They are as follows: 

I. The process by comprnation. ‘Two or more words may be united 
to form a new one, or to perform the office of a new one, and four methods 
or stages of combination may be noted. 

a. By juxtaposition, where the two words are placed together and yet 
remain as distinct words. This method is illustrated in Chinese where the 
words in the combination when taken alone seldom give a clew to their 
meaning when placed together. 


56 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


b. By compounding, where two words are made into one, in which case 
the original elements of the new word remain in an unmodified condition, 
as in “house-top,” ‘‘rain-bow,” ‘‘tell-tale.” 

c. By agglutination, in which case one or more of the elements entering 
into combination to form the new word is somewhat changed—the ele- 
ments are fused together. Yet this modification is not so great as to essen- 
tially obscure the primitive words, as in ‘‘truthful,” where we easily recog- 
nize the original words “truth” and “full”; and “holiday,” in which “holy” 
and “day” are recognized. 

d. By inflection. Here one or more of the elements entering into the 
compound has been so changed that it can scarcely be recognized. There 
is a constant tendency to economy in speech by which words are gradually 
shortened as they are spoken by generation after generation. In those 
words which are combinations of others there are certain elements that wear 
out more rapidly than others. Where some particular word is combined 
with many other different words the tendency to modify by wear this oft- 
used elementis great. This is more especially the case where the combined 
word is used in certain categories of combinations, as where particular 
words are used to denote tense in the verb; thus “did” may be used in com- 
bination with a verb to denote past time until it is worn down to the sound 
of “d.”. The same wear occurs where particular words are used to form 
cases in nouns and a variety of illustrations might be given. These cate- 
gories constitute conjugations and declensions, and for convenience such 
combinations may be called paradigmatic. Then the oft-repeated elements 
of paradigmatic combinations are apt to become excessively worn and 
modified, so that the primitive words or themes to which they are attached 
seem to be but sligntly changed by the addition. Under these circum- 
stances combination is called inflection. 

Asa morphologic process, no well-defined plane of demarkation between 
these four methods of combination can be drawn, as one runs into another; 
but, in general, words may be said to be juxtaposed, when two words being 
placed together the combination performs the function of a new word, while 
in form the two words remain separate. 4 

Words may be said to be compound when two or more words are com- 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 57 


bined to form one, no change being made in either. Words may be said 
to be agglutinated when the elementary words are changed but slightly, 
i. e., only to the extent that their original forms are not greatly obscured; 
and words may be said to be inflected when in thec ombination the oft- 
repeated element or formative part has been so changed that its origin is 
obscured. These inflections are used chiefly in the paradigmatic combina- 
tions. 

In the preceding statement it has been assumed that there can be 
recognized, in these combinations of inflection, a theme or root, as it is 
sometimes called, and a formative element. The formative element is used 
with a great many different words to define or qualify them, that is to 
indicate mode, tense, number, person, gender, etc., of verbs, nouns, and 
other parts of speech. 

When in a language juxtaposition is the chief method of combination, 
there may also be distinguished two kinds of elements, in some sense cor- 
responding to themes and formative parts. The theme is a word the mean- 
ing of which is determined by the formative word placed by it; that is, 
the theme is a word having many radically different meanings; with which 
meaning it is to be understood is determined only by the formative word, 
which thus serves as its label. The ways in which the theme words are 
thus labeled by the formative word are very curious, but the subject can- 
not be entered into here. 

When words are combined by compounding, the formative elements 
cannot so readily be distinguished from the theme; nor for the purposes 
under immediate consideration can compounding be well separated from 
agglutination. 

When words are combined by agglutination, theme and formative part 
usually appear. The formative parts are affixes; and affixes may be 
divided into three classes, prefixes, suffixes, and infixes. These affixes are 
often called incorporated particles. 

In those Indian languages where combination is chiefly by agglutina- 
tion, that is, by the use of affixes, 7. ¢., incorporated particles, certain parts 
of the conjugation of the verb, especially those which denote gender, num- 
ber, and person, are affected by the use of article pronouns; but in those 


58 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


languages where article pronouns are not found the verbs are inflected to 
accomplish the same part of their conjugation. Perhaps, when we come 
more fully to study the formative elements in these more highly inflected 
languages, we may discover in such elements greatly modified, é. e., worn 
out, incorporated pronouns. 

The above explanation is given that the student who may desire to 
make a somewhat exhaustive study of a language may be on the lookout for 
different ways of combination, especially to discover if the Chinese method 
by juxtaposition is used even to a limited extent. 

II. The process by vocaLic Muration. Here, in order to form a new 
word, one or more of the vowels of the old word are changed, as in “‘man”— 
“men,” where an ‘‘e” is substituted for ‘‘a”; ‘ran”—‘“‘run,” where ‘‘u” is 
substituted for “a”; “lead”—‘‘led,” where ‘“e,’ 
substituted for ‘‘ea” with its proper sound. This method is used to a very 
limited extent in English. When the history of the words in which it occurs 
is studied it is discovered to be but an instance of the wearing out of the 
different elements of combined words; but in the Hebrew this method pre- 
vails to a very large extent, and scholars have not yet been able to discover 
its origin in combination as they have in English. It may or may not have 
been an original grammatic process, but because of its importance in cer- 


’ 


with its proper sound, is 


tain languages it has been found necessary to deal with it as a distinct and 
original process. 

III. The process by inronation. In English new words are not formed 
by this method, yet words are intoned for certain purposes, chiefly rhetor- 
ical. We use the rising intonation (or inflection, as it is usually called) to 
indicate that a question is asked, and various effects are given to speech by 
the various intonations of rhetoric. But this process is used in other lan- 
guages to form new words with which to express new ideas. In Chinese 
eight distinct intonations are found, by the use of which one word may be 
made to express eight different ideas, or perhaps it is better to say that 
eight words may be made of one. 

IV. The process by ptacemENT. The place or position of a word may 
affect its significant use. Thus in English we say ‘John struck James.” 
By the position of those words to each other we know that John is the 
actor, and that James receives the action. 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 59 


It has thus been explained what is meant by the four grammatic pro- 
cesses, and this has been necessary in order to call the attention of the 
student to three methods with which he may not be so familiar, viz: the 
second, third, and fourth. 

In the study of an Indian language the student should take pains to 
discover for what purposes and to what extent either or all of these methods 
are used; and, especially, is attention directed to the use of intonation, 
from the fact that several Indian tribes are known to greatly intone their 
words. This characteristic has been frequently mentioned by those familiar 
with certain tribes, and the writer has himself noticed it, especially with the 
people of Oraibi and Zuni, who inhabit pueblos but speak different lan- 
guages. 

Placement is known to be used for important purposes in some of the 
Indian tongues which have been studied; that is, the order of words in a 
sentence is of great significance. This subject should receive careful study. 

In the thirtieth schedule a list of verbs is given which it would be well 
for the student to write out in all of their forms, and especially should he 
look for irregular and defective verbs, and for different methods of conju- 
gation. 

A particular form of irregularity exists in the Ute language which may 
be discovered elsewhere. In that language there are many verbs where 
the singular and dual are formed on one theme and the plural on another. 


§ 31. ON THE BEST METHOD OF STUDYING MATERIALS COLLECTED. 


The schedules and the preceding sections have been given for the pur- 
pose of directing students into the best methods of collecting Indian ma- 
terial for study. 

The study of the materials collected is the second stage in linguistic 
research. On this branch of the subject Mr. J. Hammond Trumbull has 
written somewhat at length, in the Transactions of the American Philolog- 
ical Association, 1869—70, from which the following extract is taken: 


In the English language the analytical tendency has attained its highest results. 
By employing independent words to express grammatical relations, it has reduced a 
great part of its vocabulary to monosyllables. The very essence of the Indian lan- 
guages on the contrary is synthesis, and their capacity for synthetical development is 


60 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


apparently unlimited. Their highest aim is to express in a single word “not only all 
that modifies or relates to the same object, or action, but both the action and the object ; 
thus concentrating in a single expression a complex idea, or several ideas among which 
there is a natural connection.”* There is hardly any modification of which the action 
of a verb is susceptible which may not be effected by means of inseparable particles 
having the character of adverbs: “thus the action may be intended, or be about to 
be done; it may be done well, better, ill, in a different manner, quickly, attentively, 
jointly, probably, rarely, repeatedly, habitually”: it may be affirmed, doubted, ques- 
tioned, denied, prohibited. A single example will illustrate this, and I select one 
which Mr. Bancroft (History of the United States, vol. iii, p. 259) has used for a simi- 
lar purpose, in his observations on “ the synthetic character of the American languages.” 

“The Indian never kneels; so, when Eliot translated Ineeling [Mark, i, 40] the 
word which he was compelled to form fills a line, and numbers eleven syllables.” 

As an instance of extreme synthesis this word — wut-ap-pe'sit-tuk-qus!-sun-noo-weht- 
unk’-quohi—is well taken, but its significance is by no means limited, as Mr. Bancroft 
supposed it to be, by that of the English participle “kneeling.” In the verse cited it 
stands as the translation of the words “kneeling down to him” of the English text, or, 
more exactly, for “he kneeled down to him”—EHliot having substituted the indicative 
mood for the participle, as Indian syntax requires. We have thus five English words 
represented by the Indian synthesis. But the denotation of the latter is not yet ex- 
hausted. Hliot might have found, in the Massachusetts or any other Algonkin dialect, an 
equivalent for the verb “to kneel”, in its literal and primary signification—“ to rest on 
the bended knees” or (active-intransitive) “to assume the position of kneeling.” In 2 
Chron., vi, 13: Daniel, vi, 10: Acts, xx, 36, he translated “ he kneeled down” by ap-pel-sit- 
tuk-qus'-sin; but in the verse first cited, something more than the mere act of bending the 
knees or resting on them is implied. The verb here connotes supplication, submission, 
and worship, and all this is expressed in the eighth and ninth syllables (-noo-weht-) of the 
Indian synthesis, the whole of which may be translated, literally: “ He, falling down 
upon his knees, worshiped [or made supplication to] him.” Thus the one Indian word 
of eleven syllables requires for its accurate interpretation eight or ten English words and 
at least eleven syllables. 

This tendency to synthesis is not manifested only in the grammatical structure. 
It may be traced far back to the roots of the language, and characterizes the primary 
verbs as truly as it does the many-syllabled cluster-words of later growth. Father 
Le Jeune, a Jesuit missionary in Canada in 1634, mentions as a peculiarity of the lan- 
guage of the Montagnars “the infinite number of words which signify many things 
together,” and which yet had no etymological affinity with any of the words which 
signify those things severally; and he gave as an example the Montagnais verb piouan, 
meaning “the wind drives the snow,” but in which no trace appears of the words for 


*Gallatin, in Trans. Am. Antiquarian Society, vol. ii, p. 165. 

tGallatin, in Trans. Am. Ethnological Society, vol. ii, p. exlii. 

#Duponcean pointed out this word as the longest he had met with in any Indian language 
except the Chippeway (of Schoolcraft), in which “‘there were some verbal forms of thirteen and fourteen 
syllables. (Mémoire sur le Systeme Grammatical etc., p. 143.) A more remarkable illustration of “the 
Indian way of compounding words” was given by the Rey. Experience Mayhew, preacher to the Indians 
on Martha’s Vineyard, in a synthesis of twenty-two syllables, signifying ‘‘our well-skilled looking-glass 
makers”—Nup-pahk-nuh-t6-pe-pe-nau-wut-chut-chuh-qu6-ka-neh-cha-e-nin-nu-mun-n6-nok. (MS. Letter, 1722.)

“wind,” “snow,” or “to drive.”* This synthesis which precedes grammar and concen- 
trates complex ideas—thought-clusters—in a single word or syllable, is found in all the 
American languages of which we have any knowledge. The primary verb affirms con- 
ditioned or modified existence, specific and restricted action. There is—I speak now 
only of that group of languages to which my studies have been chiefly directed, the 
Algonkin—there is no independent substantive verb; but there are verbs of being under * 
every conceivable condition of time, place, and circumstance. “He is” cannot be 
exactly translated by any Algonkin verb, but every dialect has verbs signifying ‘ he 
is well—or ill,” “he lives,” “he was (and is not),” “he was (and continues to be),” “he 
has himself,’ “he abides,” ‘he remains,” “he is the same as,” “he is of the kind of,” 
“il y a,” ete. 

Every standard vocabulary includes the verb ‘to eat,” yet this verb has not, so 
far as I can discover, its equivalent in any American language. The Algonkin has 
four or five primary and a great many composite verbs of eating, but none of these 
expresses the simple act of taking food, without reference to the manner, mode, sub- 
ject, or object. One verb, for example, signifies “to eat animal food” (or that which 
has or has had life); another, “to eat vegetable food ;” another, “ to eat soft food” (that 
which may be dipped up, spoon-victuals, such as samp, succotash, and the like); others, 
“to eat ravenously, to devour like beasts of prey,” “to graze,” or take food from the 
ground as cattle do, and so on. Others, again, by the insertion of a particle, or by 
receiving a characteristic affix, are made to express the act of eating in company with 
others, of eating enough or satisfying one’s self with food, of eating all that is provided, 
of feasting, ete. 

No Indian language, probably, has any verb which exactly corresponds to the 
English verb “to go,” yet the Indian verbs of motion are almost numberless. There 
are verbs of going by land, by water, by paddle, by sail; of going From the speaker, 
from the place of the action narrated, and from a place other than that of the speaker 
or the action; of going to a, person, place, inanimate object; of going by running, 
jumping, flying, swimming, etc. (and these are not to be confounded with the verbs 
which express the acts of running, jumping, flying, and swimming); of going fast, 
slow, before, after, aslant, in a straight course, by a devious path; and scores of others. 
A special vocabulary of the verbs of motion in any Indian language, giving an analysis 
of each and its precise signification, would be of some real value to philologists; but 
what is to be gained by entering against the English infinitive “‘to go,” in a standard 
vocabulary, some one or another of these Indian verbs of going, the entry carrying its 
own evidence of inaccuracy ? 

The defects of the vocabulary method are still more obvious when we consider 
the nature of Indian names. A peculiar strength of the English language lies in its 
concrete general names, and in the facility with which these names are made to pass 
from the concrete to the abstract. The peculiar excellence of the Indian languages is 
in the nice machinery by which definitions or descriptions of individual objects are made 
to stand for names, and by means of which names which in English are general or 
abstract become individual or concrete. The English abounds with predicates of a 
class or genus; but the Indian noun—verbum nominale—itself predicates a differentia 
or an accidens, occasionally a genus or a species. I say the Indian noun predicates, for

62 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


J ean find no less objectionable form of expression, though this conveys only half the 
truth. Strictly regarded, the Indian noun is not separable, as a part of speech, from the 
verb. Every name is not merely descriptive but predicative—not as in Indo-European 
languages by implication or suggestion, or by reason of remote derivation from a 
predicative root, but it retains the verb form unchanged; is varied by conjugation, not 
by declension; has tenses, not cases; may become active, passive, reciprocal, frequenta- 
tive, like other verbs. In short, every Indian name is in fact a verb—is formed as a 
participial immediately from a verb, or contains within itself a verb. 

Without pursuing this branch of the subject further at present or multiplying 
examples, I repeat that, in view of the fundamental differences in grammatical struct- 
ure and in plan of thought between the American and the Indo-European languages, 
it is nearly impossible to find an Indian name or verb which admits of exact translation 
by an English name or verb. But the standard vocabularies which have been most 
largely used in the collection and exhibition of materials are framed on the hypothesis 
that such translation is generally possible. They assume that equivalents of English 
generic names may be found among Indian specific and individual names; that English 
analysis may be adequately represented, word for word, by Indian synthesis. Such 
vocabularies, as has been remarked, have their uses, but to linguistic science or to 
comparative philology they contribute nothing which is worth the cost of obtaining. 
When a collector or an editor has acquired a thorough knowledge of the grammatical 
structure of a language and has learned how to resolve synthesis by analysis, he may 
undertake the arrangement of his materials in the form of a vocabulary with some 
probability of imparting to the result real and permanent value. Without such prep- 
aration for his work—no matter how cautiously or with what ability he prosecutes it— 
he must not hope for great success. 

It is easier to discover the defects in the old method than to point out a new and 
a better one. The details of such a method could not be discussed without exceeding 
the limits of this paper, nor is such discussion called for. The way to a more thor- 
ough and exact knowledge of the Indian languages is not nnknown or untried. There 
are laborers already in the field who have not only proved that higher results than the 
compilation of brief vocabularies are attainable, but have shown how to attain them; 
and for the study of a considerable number of languages and dialects of the North, the 
South, the valleys of the Mississippi and Missouri, and the far West, scholars are no 
longer restricted in materials to quasi translations of lists of untranslatable English 
words. 

The suggestions I shall offer have to some extent been anticipated by the drift of 
the foregoing remarks. The first is— 

That a constant aim of the student of any of the American languages should be 
the resolution of synthesis by analysis. What the Indian has so skillfully put together— 
“agolutinated” or “incorporated”—must be carefully taken to pieces, and the materials 
ot the structure be examined separately. Every Indian cluster-word is a sentence—a 
description, definition, or affirmation. Mere translation will not exhibit its construction 
or afford a trustworthy basis of comparison with word-groups in other languages. 
Something is gained, it is true, by exact translation; but this cannot be had if the trans- 
lation must be shaped to the requirements of an English vocabulary. A single chap- 
ter of the Bible or a dozen sentences of familiar conversation accurately translated into

any Indian language, or a few selected words and phrases translated from it to English, 
will give a better insight to its structure and do more to determine its relationship to 
other American languages than long lists of concrete names or verb-forms compiled on 
the usual plan. But something more than translation, however accurate, is wanted. 
These languages must be studied in their roots, for these are the elements of synthesis. 
The possible forms of synthesis are infinite, but the radicals or primaries are, in any 
language, few. The forms, both inflectional and syntactic, are subject to change from 
year to year and in passing from tribe to tribe; and these changes, it is said, have in 
some instances been surprisingly rapid and extensive. We are told of a vocabulary 
compiled by missionaries to a Central American tribe in 1823 which had become use- 
less in 1833, so greatly had the language changed in the ten years which intervened.* 
With better knowledge of the structure of these languages such changes would prob- 
ably have been found to be for the most part only superficial—the synthesis being 
differently constructed, while its elements, the predicative and demonstrative roots, 
remained the same. Of such changes some further notice will be taken in another 
part of this paper. 

To single out and fix the primary meanings of the verbal roots should be the ulti- 
mate aim in the study of every Indian language. What excessive synthesis has done, 
searching analysis must undo. The task is not so difficult as at first sight it may seem 
to be. As I have before remarked, the roots or primaries are few and constant, or 
nearly so, in all dialects and languages of the same family, allowance being made for 
recognized differences of pronunciation and accent. They preserve their independent 
signification, however combined. They enter into composition without undergoing 
change of form, while their affixes and formatives obey laws of harmonious sequence 
of vowels as nicely adjusted as in Turkish. The five, ten, or more syllables of a ver- 
bal-synthesis do not grow out of or coalesce with one another, but each is built on ; so 


*S. F. Waldeck, Lettre @ M. Jomard des environs de Palenqué—cited by Max Miiller, Lectures on 
the Science of Language, Ist series, p. 62 (Am. ed.). I confess that, without other explanation than 
appears, I find this statement hardly credible, and suspect that the worthlessness of the vocabulary 
should not have been attributed solely to the inconstancy of the language. Professor Miiller (J. c.) 
refers also to Sagard’s Grand Voyage du Pays des Hurons (Paris, 1632), for the statement ‘‘that among 
these North American tribes hardly one village speaks the same language as another; nay, that two 
families of the same village do not speak exactly the same language.” And he adds, what is important, 
that ‘their language is changing every day, and is already so much changed that the ancient Huron 
language is almost entirely different from the present.” But Sagard’s statement must not be received 
without the qualification he himself gave it. He did not intimate that the differences of dialect were 
greater or the tendency to change more apparent in the Huron language than in the French. What he 
says—in the introduction to the Dictionnaire de la langue Huronne, printed with his Grand Voyage—is in 
substance this: that there was the same diversity of accent, pronunciation, and in the use of words, in 
provinces, towns, and villages in the Huron country as in France; that the same words might be differ- 
ently pronounced or the same object called by different names even by inmates of the same cabin; one 
person would say ‘‘etseignon,” and another ‘‘ etcheignon”; one ‘‘ochahenna,” another ‘‘ochahenda,” etc. ; 
and that, as in France (comme par degad) new words were invented or brought in fashion and the pronun- 
ciation of the court had almost superseded (presque ensevely) the ancient Gallic, so ‘‘our Hurons, and 
generally all other nations, have the same instability of language, and change their words so that in pro- 
cess of time the old Huron becomes almost entirely different from the modern.” The change, as he 
conjectured, was still going on; and yet Sagard’s very imperfect dictionary of this unstable language, 
two hundred years or more after it was compiled, enabled Duponcean to make himself understood 
without apparent difficulty by the Wyandots, a remnant of the lost nation of the Hurons. (Dupon- 
ceau’s Mémoire, p. 110.) 


64 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


that when the key is once found the word-puzzle may be taken in pieces as easily as it 
was put together. Indeed, it is a requirement of the Indian languages that every 
word shall be so framed as to admit of immediate resolution to its significant elements 
by the hearer. It must be thoroughly self-defining, for (as Max Miiller has expressed 
it) ‘it requires tradition, society, and literature to maintain words which can no longer 
be analyzed at once.” . . . In the ever-shifting state of a nomadic society no 
debased coin can be tolerated in language, no obscure legend accepted on trust. The 
metal must be pure and the legend distinct.* The more cumbrous and unwieldy the 
structure, the greater is the necessity for exact adjustment of its parts; and the laws 
of verbal composition are well-established, admitting no exceptions. 

How far such an analysis as I have suggested can be successfully carried need 
not now be inquired. Every step taken in that direction will be something gained, 
will lead to more exact knowledge and to positive results. To determine and classify 
the primary verbs in any one language would be to bring a larger contribution to lin- 
guistic science than has often been made by students of the American tongues. Back 
of these verbs and of the primary demonstratives are the ultimate roots. These may 
not now be, possibly they never will be, attainable; yet I do not hesitate to express 
my belief that through the study of the American languages scholars may as nearly 
arrive at a solution of the great problem of the genesis of speech, in determining the 
character and office of its germs, as by any other avenue of approach. All attempts 
to establish relationship between the several great linguistic families by the identifica- 
tion of roots, may indeed be regarded as hopeless; for few will be disposed to question 
Professor Whitney’s conclusion (Language and the Study of Language, p. 392) that 
“the difficulties in the way of a fruitful comparison of roots are altogether overwhelm- 
ing”; and probably no one is yet “so sanguine as to expect to discover, amid the blind 
confusion of the American languages, where there are scores of groups which seem to 
be totally diverse in constituent material, the radical elements which have lain at the 
basis of their common development.” But if order is ever to be brought out of this 
blind confusion—if any satisfactory classification of the hundreds of languages and 
dialects now so loosely grouped is to be established—if the genetic relation of one of 
these to another is to be demonstrated even in those cases where, on grounds independ- 
ent of language, the probability of such relation is greatest—analysis must first do its 
work, until, at least, it shall have determined and classified the earliest traceable con- 
stituents of speech, though compelled to stop short of the discovery of ultimate roots. 

If the method I have indicated is the true one, the collection of materials for the 
critical study of an American language should begin, not with the translation into it 
of a given number of English names, but by looking out its simplest, 7. e., least compos- 
ite words, and fixing their meanings,—by detaching from the constant roots or themes 
terminations and formatives which are merely grammatical,—and by translating from 
the Indian to the English, provisionally and subject to correction by more rigid analysis, 
the syntheses which discharge the office of concrete names, by conveying concise defi- 
nitions or specific descriptions of the objects to which they are severally appropriated. 

Among the words and elements of words which claim earliest attention, may be 
mentioned— 

1. The Pronouns, separable and inseparable, and pronominal suffixes: with which 
may be included the demonstratives. 


* Lectures on the Science of Language, 1st series, pp. 292, 293, 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 65 


2. Particles which serve as prepositions and post-positions, conjunctions and, occa- 
sionally, adverbs. Nearly all of these appear to be remnants of verbs and for the most 
part are susceptible of conjugation as verbs. Their verbal origin may be matter of 
subsequent investigation, but a careful study of them in their present forms is essen- 
tial, at the very outset, to thorough knowledge of a language; for they have much to 
do with the construction of syntheses and exert great influence in the modification of 
verbal roots. 

3. The Numerals, cardinal, ordinal, and distributive. For the collection and 
analysis of these, some suggestions are given in “Instructions for research relative to 
the Ethnology and Philology of America,” prepared for the Smithsonian Institution 
by Col. George Gibbs.* As the numerals are always significant, it should be a special 
aim of the collector to ascertain the precise meaning of each. Does the word used for 
one signify “‘a small thing,” “a beginning,” “the little one” (7. e. finger), “undivided,” 
or “that which is left behind or passed by”? Does three mean “the middle finger”? 
Is fiwe “the hand,” “the closed fist,” or ‘‘all” the fingers? Is six ‘“five-one,” “one 
more,” or “one held up” (i. e. one of the fingers which had been doubled down)? Is nine 
‘one left,” or ‘one less than,” or “one wanting”? Is eleven ‘‘one again” or “ten more 
one”? Is twenty, as in the Hskimo, “ one man” (i. e. all the fingers and toes)? Every 
such question that is answered throws some light on the structure and method of synthe- 
sis and may help establish the relationship of the language. 

4, Primary Verbs. Of these and of the tendency to the concentration of complex 
ideas in a single word, which is characteristic of the American languages, I have 
already spoken. Recollect that the Indian verb is almost always holophrastic. It 
affirms—not action or existence generally, but—some special and limited act or con- 
ditioned existence; consequently, it can seldom, if ever, be adequately translated by an 
English verb without adverbial qualification. 

5. Concrete Nouns. We have seen that these are not, as in the inflectional lan- 
guages so many names have come to be, mere unmeaning marks. They are descrip- 
tive and definitive; specific, not general; and each retains the verb form or embodies 
a verb. Every synthesis is so framed as to differentiate the object it serves to name 
from every other object known to the speaker, and this so explicitly as to be intelligible 
to every hearer. The English word horse tells us nothing about the animal it names. 
Etymologists who can establish its connection with the Sanskrit hrésh may find a rea- 
son for its appropriation to “the neigher,” but we use it without having a conscious- 
ness of any such intrinsic significance, recognizing it, only because we have been taught 
to do so, as the distinguishing mark which has been set upon a species, just as—regard- 
less of etymological suggestions—we recognize ‘‘ Charles” or ‘‘ William” as the distin- 
guishing mark of an individual. The American languages permit the use of no such 
names without meaning. The native of Massachusetts who saw a horse for the first 
time distinguished it from all animals he had previously known, as “the beast that 
carries on his back a living burden,” and this name once heard enabled every Indian 
of the tribe, or who understood the language, to identify the animal whenever it came 
in his way. So the Chippeway could recognize by its name alone the creature ‘“ whose 
hoofs are all solid,” and so the Dakota knew at sight the “‘ wonderful domestic animal” 
introduced by the white man.

66 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


With this understanding of the nature of Indian names, we see how tribes speak- 
ing dialects of the same language and not widely separated may come to have different 
names for the same object—as many names, possibly, as there can be framed defini- 
tions or descriptions sufficiently exact for its differentiation. One Algonkin tribe calls 
the beaver a ‘feller of trees”; another describes him as “putting his head out of the 
water,” i. ¢., air-breathing water-animal. The Chippeways and some other tribes of the 
same family name the humming-bird by the cumbrous synthesis no no no*k/aus eé; the 
Shyennes, a western offshoot of the same Algonkin stock, call it ma kd 7 tat wi kis. 
The two names have no apparent affinity. Standing side by side in a comparative 
vocabulary, their testimony would go to show the unlikeness of the languages to which 
they respectively belong. Yet both names would, probably, be alike intelligible to a 
Chippeway and a Sheyenne. When we have learned that the one means ‘an exceed- 
ingly slight (or delicate) little creature,” and the other, “the iron bird,’ we shall be 
less likely to draw a wrong inference from their external non-resemblance. 

Where such latitude is allowed in name-giving, and where a name is necessarily 
discarded when the description it gives of an object is no longer sufficient to distin- 
guish it from every other, we must not expect to find the same constancy in the vocab- 
ulary as in languages like our own, in which names hold their places not by virtue of 
their inherent significance but by prescription. And here we have the reason of some 
of the changes which have been remarked in the languages of certain tribes, of which 
something was said in another place (p. 65). Such changes are likely to be most con- 
siderable and most rapid soon after the opening of intercourse with a civilized race. 
The significance of old names is lost in the changed condition of the tribe. One syn- 
thesis displaces another which has no longer any distinguishing force ; one object after 
another is divested of the characteristic quality which had given it a name. When 
Europeans first came to New England, the Algonkin name of a pot or kettle (aukuk) 
described it as “made of earth”; but this name—still in use among the western Algon- 
kins—could not long maintain its place in the language of Indians of the Atlantic 
coast after vessels of copper and iron were generally substituted for pots of clay or 
steatite. The introduction of fire-arms, of dogs and horses, of trading cloth and 
blankets, not only called for the invention of a dozen new names but made nearly as 
many old ones useless. 

6. Characteristic particles found in composition with verbs, designating specific 
modifications of the action or special relations of the action to the subject or object of 
the verb. These are prefixed, added as terminations, or inserted between the root and 
the inflection proper. 

7. Generic formatives whick, in grammatical synthesis, discharge the office of 
appellatives or general names. . 

These two classes—characteristic particles and generic formatives—present the 
most formidable obstacles which are to be encountered in acquiring thorough knowl- 
edge of any American language. One or the other or both have place in nearly every 
synthesis. Both must be eliminated by analysis before the primary signification of the 
verbs with which they are associated can be ascertained. Biliteral or uniliteral—sylla- 
bles or mere fragments of syllables—they probably all represent, as many of them are 
known to do, independent words, some of which still maintain their places in the vocab- 
ulary, while others have yielded to phonetic decay. The critical investigation of these 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 67 


particles will compensate the student for all the pains it may cost him, for in it he will 
be brought very near the ultimate roots of the language. 

To the former class—characteristic particles—belong all the grammatical ma- 
chinery for energizing and individualizing the activity of the verb, making it intensive, 
frequentative, causative, possessive, reciprocal, dubitative, simulative, representative, 
etc.—for designating the manner of acting or of being, and sometimes the instrument 
or agency by which the act is performed. 

The nature and office of these characteristics may be shown by a few examples 
from the Massachusetts-Algonkin, the Sioux-Dakota, and the Choctaw ;* but of their 
number and variety in any language no adequate conception can be had without study 
of the language itself. 

In the Massachusetts (as written by Eliot) -whk or mhk interposed between the 
root and the formative denotes continued and progressive action—“to go on” doing: 
pet-aii, “he puts (or is put) into” petuHK-aii, “he goes into”; assa-maii, ‘he gives food 
to,” assaUHK-amaii (contracted to so6HKamaii, El.), “he keeps on giving food to,” con- 
tinues to feed (e. g., a domestic animal); amd-eu, “he absents himself, departs”; 
amavHKk-au, “he drives away” (goes-after him-going) ; wek-eau, ‘* he houses himself, pro- 
vides a dwelling place”; wekuHK-au, “he builds or constructs a dwelling place,” goes 
on housing himself. 

When the action is performed with the hand the characteristic is -nn before the 
formative: kenwNNum, ‘he carries it in his hand”; tohqunnum, “he holds it fast with his 
hand” [comp. Cree tékwdnum, “he holds it with his hand,” tdkwdarum “he holds it in 
his mouth”|. If the action is performed by cutting or with a knife, -ss takes the place of 
-mn: sohqu-i, “it is in small pieces,” “ broken fine” ; sohqunnum, “he breaks or pulls it 
to pieces with his hand”; sohqussum, “he cuts it in small pieces.” The act of tying or 
making fast by a cord or thong is denoted by -pi or -pin after the root: kishpINNum, “he 
ties it firmly with his hand” (the characteristic is double here); assepINNum, “he ties 
them together”; togkupinNau, “he holds him fast by bonds,” ete. Sudden, violent, or 
disastrous action is denoted by the insertion of -sh; petaii, “he puts (or goes) into,” 
becomes petsHaii, “he falls into,” (e. g., a pit or a snare); pohqui, “it parts asunder”; 
poksHeau, “it breaks, by violence or suddenly”; togkun, ‘“‘it strikes”; togkusHin, ‘it 
strikes with violence, ete. 

In the Dakota group, the instrumentive or modal characteristic is prefixed to the 
verb: ba- shows that the action is done by cutting or sawing : bo-, that it is done by shoot- 
ing (lit. by blowing) or by some missile; ya-, that it is performed with the mouth; pa-, that 
itisdoneby pushing, drawing, pressing, or rubbing with the hand, e. g.: BAksa, “to cut oft” ; 
BAmda, ‘to cut in slices”; BApta, “‘ to cut off a piece”; BApako, “ to cut or saw crooked ” 
(from pako, ‘ crooked”); bohdho, “ to loosen by shooting” (from hohd, “ loose”); Boi!- 
yowaza, ‘to make an echo by shooting” (from yat/wowaza, ‘‘to make an echo”); YAcho- 
cho, “to chew fine” (from chocho “ soft”) ; YAhého, ‘to make loose, with the mouth (from 
hoho, “ loose”) ; PAdopa, “to push into the mud” (from dépa, ‘to mire”); PAbu, “to 
make a noise with drumming with the fingers” (from bu, “to make a noise”) ; PAhmtyan,. 
‘to make round like a ball, with the hands” (from hmi-yan’, round”), ete. 

* The Massachusetts forms are taken from Eliot’s version of the Bible, the Dakota from the Rev. 


S. R. Riggs’s excellent grammar and dictionary of that language (Washington, 1852), and the Choc- 
taw from the Rey. C. Byington’s Choctaw Grammar (edited by Dr. D. G. Brinton, Philadelphia, 1870). 


68 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


In the Choctaw, Mr. Byington (Grammar, p. 36) gives some of these forms for the 
verb takchi, “to tie”: ta*kchi, “to be tying”; tatyAkchi, “to tie firmly”; taHa"kchi, ‘to 
keep tying”; taHkchi, “ to tie instantly ” or suddenly ; takcutchi” to cause to tie,” ete. 

In oni of the Algonkin languages there is a special form of the verb for denoting 
a pretense of doing or being, “feigning to do.” In the Cree, this form has the char- 
acteristic -kds; from nipp/ow, “he sleeps,” comes nippaka’soo, ‘he pretends to sleep”; 
muskowissu, “he is strong,” muskowisseK A‘Soo, ‘ he pretends to be strong,” &c. (Howse’s 
Cree Grammar, pp. 20, 84.) 

What I have called generic formatives have been regarded by some writers on the 
American languages, especially by Mr. Schoolcraft, as “ primitive nouns never disjunc- 
tively used.” All, however, which are found in the Algonkin languages may be shown 
to belong to one of two classes: verbals and participials regularly formed from primary 
verbs—some of which still retain their independent places in the language—and inflec- 
tions, with a characteristic particle prefixed to each. They may be described, generally, 
as terminations which denote the class or kind to which the object designated by the 
synthesis belongs. Examples of these formatives may be observed in many geograph- 
ical and local names. In the parts of the country where Algonkin dialects were spoken, 
-paug or -pag final (or followed by the locative sign, -wt, -it, -ing) denotes “ water at rest,” 
“standing water,” and is the substantival component of many names of lakes and 
ponds; -hanne or -han, “flowing,” distinguishes a “rapid stream” or “current”; -tuk 
(Abnaki, -tegmé ; Delaware, -ittuk), “driven in waves,” from a root signifying ‘to strike,” 
is found in names of tidal rivers and estuaries and of broad, deep streams; -ompsk, con- 
tracted to -psk or -msk (Abnaki, -peskoo; Cree, -pisk ; Chippeway, -bik), denotes ‘“‘ hard 
or flint-like rock.” * 

-Minne, or its contraction -min, is the generic affix of names of berries, nuts, and 
other fruits which may be eaten. It is never used independently, though a nearly- 
related word, meen, pl. meenun, is found in the Chippeway and some other dialects 
specially appropriated to a single species (the blueberry), and in the Cree the diminu- 
tives menis and menissis are used for “berry” generally. The cranberry was called by 
the Narragansetts, sasé-min, “very sour berry”; by the Chippeways, muskegé-min, 
‘‘swamp-berry”; the strawberry is (Chip.) odéi-min, “heart-berry”; Indian corn, in 
Massachusetts, ewdchi-min or weatchi-min, but among the western Algonkins, monda- 
min, “manito” (#. e., supernatural or wonderful) “ fruit.” 

-Pin denotes an esculent tuber or tuberous root; as in (Chip.) o-pin, “potato”; 
witi-pin, “wild potato”; muskode-pin, “prairie-root”; warwbeze-pin, “‘ swan-root” (a 
species of Sagittaria), ete. 

-Asq in the Massachusetts and Narragansett dialects was the generic formative of 
the names of fruits which might be eaten “raw” or when “ green,” particularly melons 
and edible gourds. In the plural, -asqg makes -asquash—whence our name “squash” 
for several varieties of Cucurbitace.t 

*Since the above was written a more extended notice of this class of generic formatives has been 
given in a paper, ‘‘On the composition of Indian geographical names,” printed in the second volume of 
the Collections of the Connecticut Historical Society. 

+ The primary meaning of asq or ask seems to have been ‘‘ before-time,” “immature,” ‘ unfinished,” 
or the like. As an adverbial prefix to verbs it denotes that the action is not yet performed. Hence, aski- 
and ask-un, ‘‘it is raw,” i. ¢., not yet prepared to be eaten; or “‘it is green,” 7. ¢.,not yet matured. 
Eskimo is the Algonkin name of one who “eats fish or flesh raw”; Abnaki, ’ski-moo-hoo ; Mass., aski-

In the Chippeway language, -gan and -jigan (-gun and -jeegun, Schoolcraft; Cree, 
-gun, -chéggun, Howse ; Delaware, -can, -schican, Zeisberger) are the formations of many 
names of instruments. Mr. Schoolcraft regarded these names as “based upon the word 
jeegun, one of the primitive nouns, which, although never disjunctively used, denotes, 
in its modified forms, the various senses implied by our words ‘instrument,’ ‘ contriv- 
ance,’ ‘machine,’ &c.” Sometimes, he says, it is shortened to -gun.* These generics, 
however, are not primitive words, but the formatives of participles, and jigan is never 
shortened to -gan, but is formed by the insertion of the characteristic of energetic action, 
ji, between -gan and the verbal root. Participials in -gan (or -gun) serve as names of 
what may be distinguished as passive instruments—things ‘used for” some purpose by 
an animate agent; e. g., niba-gan, “a bed” (‘used for sleeping”); opwd-gan, “a pipe,” 
(“used for smoking”); wassditshie-gan, ‘a window” (“used for lighting”), ete. Parti- 
cipials in jigan (-jeegun) or -chéggun denote inanimate agents, instruments “ for doing” 
something and which are regarded as exerting a degree of energy of their own. Of this 
class are all labor-saving machines and contrivances for helping the Indian do what he 
cannot do without them: e. g., Chippeway kishkibo-jigan, “a hand-saw,” 7. e, used for 
cutting crosswise; téshkibo-jigan, ‘a saw-mill or pit saw”, used for cutting lengthwise; 
bissibojigan, “a corn-mill or coffee mill”, used for making fine, reducing to powder. 
Delaware, kinhan-schican (Zeisb.) “a grindstone,” used for sharpening. t 

The preceding examples have been taken from the languages of the Algonkin 
family, in which the generic annex follows the qualificative. In other groups the order 
of synthesis is reversed and the generic is prefixed. The Dakota cha” (ch as in chin) 
meaning “tree” or ‘ wood,” corresponds to the Algonkin -tukh, for the designation 
of articles ‘made of wood” or “ belonging to a tree,” e. g., cha”-ha, “tree skin,” bark ; 
cha*ha’pi, “tree sap,” sugar; cha”opiye, “wood to put into,” a box or wooden vessel; 
cha'sii", “tree fat”, gum or resin; cha"shu'shka, “good for nothing wood,” the box- 
elder, &c. Ta is a generic prefix of names of ruminating animals, but when used inde- 
pendently denotes the moose, par excellence. Wa limits certain names to the “bear” 
species. Ho refers others to the class “fish,” as in ho-a’ pe, “a fin” (from a/pe “ leaf”);

Students of Indian languages have sometimes fallen into error about 
their rank or value as instruments for the expression of thought, as shown 


moowhau. The Dakota sak corresponds to the Algonkin asq; sa’ka, “raw”; dimin., sa/ka-da”, ‘‘ green,” 
“immature”; sa/ka-yutapi, ‘* something eaten raw,” melons, cucumbers, &c. 

*Lectures on the Odjibwa Substantive. Gallatin in Trans. Am. Antiq. Soc., vol. ii, p. 228, adopts 
from Schoolcraft the statement that ‘‘a numerous class of compounds is derived from jeegun or gun, mean- 
ing ‘instrument,’ words never used alone.” 

tThis characteristic -j? is itself a compound or derivative, as we find by going back to simpler 
forms of the verb. In the Cree and Chippeway, ¢ or d (Massachusetts, tt or dt) is the characteristic of 
verbs of action performed on inanimate objects; but if the object is not expressed, the verb takes a dif- 
ferent inflection and its characteristic becomes che or ji (i. e., t-she, d-zhe). From this form of the verb 
comes the participial in -jigan or chéggun, which by its formative, -an or -wn ascribes action to an 
inanimate subject employed to do an act, generally, or of which the object is not specified; it cuts (some- 
thing or anything) crosswise,” ‘‘ it makes something sharp,” etc. 


70 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


in many of the dissertations on Indian languages found in the literature of 
the subject. 

The assumed superiority of the Greek and Latin languages to the Eng- 
lish and other modern civilized tongues, has in part been the cause of the 
many erroneous conceptions of the rank of Indian tongues. When the 
student discovers that many of the characteristics of the classic languages 
appear in the Indian which are to a greater or less extent lost in the mod- 
ern civilized languages, he has at once assumed the superiority of the Indian 
tongue ; and when he has further discovered that some of these character- 
istics are even more highly developed than in the classic ones he has been 
led to still further exalt them. This exaggeration has still another cause. 
The many curious linguistic devices by which great specification of expres- 
sion is attained has led some scholars into undue admiration, as they have 
failed to appreciate the loss in the economy and power which these pecul- 
iar methods entail. 

It is proposed to set forth the rank of Indian languages by briefly com- 
paring them with the English and incidentally with some other languages. 
In the comparison we have but fragmentary materials for use. Any 
extended discussion, therefore, would be out of place, but it is believed 
that a brief statement of the matter will result in clearing away the errors 
into which some persons have fallen. 

This leads us to speak of language as organized. 

By the grammatie processes mentioned in the last section, language 
is organized. Organization postulates the differentiation of organs and 
their combination into integers. The integers of language are sentences, 
and their organs are the parts of speech. Linguistic organization, then, 
consists in the differentiation of the parts of speech and the integration of 
the sentence. For example, let us take the words, John, father, and love. 
John is the name of an individual; love is the name of a mental action, 
and father the name of a person. We put them together, John loves father, 
and they express a thought; John becomes a noun, and is the subject of 
the sentence; love becomes a verb, and is the predicant; father a noun, and 
is the object; and we now have an organized sentence. A sentence requires 


az

parts of speech, and parts of speech are such because they are used as the 
organic elements of a sentence. 

The criteria of rank in languages are, first, grade of organization, 7. e., 
the degree to which the grammatic processes and methods are specialized, 
and the parts of speech differentiated ; second, sematologic content, that is, 
the body of thought which the language is competent to convey. 

The grammatic processes may be used for three purposes: 

First, for derivation, where a new word to express a new idea is made 
by combining two or more old words, or by changing the vowel of one 
word, or by changing the intonation of one word. 

Second, for modification, a word may be qualified or defined by the 
processes of combination, vocalic mutation or intonation. 

It should here be noted that the plane between derivation and qualifi- 
cation is not absolute. 

Third, for relation. When words as signs of ideas are used together to 
express thought the relation of the words must be expressed by some 
means. In English the relation of words is expressed both by placement 
and combination, 7. e., inflection for agreement 

It should here be noted that paradigmatic inflections are used for two 
distinct purposes, qualification and relation. A word is qualified by inflec- 
tion when the idea expressed by the inflection pertains to the idea expressed 
by the word inflected; thus a noun is qualified by inflection when its number 
and gender are expressed. A word is related by inflection when the office 
of the word in the sentence is pointed out thereby; thus, nouns are related 
by case inflections; verbs are related by inflections for gender, number, 
and person. All inflection for agreement is inflection for relation. 

In English, the three grammatic processes are highly specialized. 

Combination is used chiefly for derivation, but to some slight extent for 
qualification and relation in the paradigmatic categories. But its use in 
this manner as compared with many other languages has almost disappeared. 

Vocalic mutation is used to a very limited extent and only by accident, 
and can scarcely be said to belong to the English language. 

Intonation is used as a grammatic process only to a limited extent— 


72 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


simply to assist in forming the interrogative and imperative modes. Its use 
here is almost rhetorical; in all other cases it is purely rhetorical. 

Placement is largely used in the language, and is highly specialized, 
performing the office of exhibiting the relations of words to each other in 
the sentence, 7. ¢., it is used chiefly for syntactic relation. 

Thus, one of the four processes does not belong to the English 
language; the others are highly specialized. 

The purposes for which the processes are used are derivation, modifica- 
tion, and syntactic relation. 

Derivation is accomplished by combination. 

Modification is accomplished by the differentiation of adjectives and 
adverbs, as words, phrases, and clauses. 

Syntactic relation is accomplished by placement. Syntactic relation must 
not be confounded with the relation expressed by prepositions. Syntactic 
relation is the relation of the parts of speech to each other as integral parts 
of a sentence. Prepositions express relations of thought of another order. 
They relate words to each other as words. 

Placement relates words to each other as parts of speech. 

In the Indian tongues combination is used for all three purposes, per- 
forming the three different functions of derivation, modification, and relation. 
Placement also is used for relation, and for both kinds of relation, syntactic 
and prepositional. 

With regard, then, to the processes and purposes for which they are 
used we find in the Indian languages a low degree of specialization; pro- 
cesses are used for diverse purposes; and purposes are accomplished by 
diverse processes. 

It is next in order to consider to what degree the parts of speech are 
differentiated in Indian languages, as compared with English. 

In a previous section it was explained that Indian nouns are extremely 
connotive, that is, the name does more than simply denote the thing to which 
it belongs; in denoting the object it also assigns to it some quality or char- 
acteristic. very object has many qualities and characteristics, and by 
describing but a part of these the true office of the noun is but imperfectly 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. (ie 


performed. A strictly denotive name expresses no one quality or character, 
but embraces all qualities and characters. 

In Ute the name for bear is “he seizes,” or “the hugger.” In this 
case the verb is used forthe noun, and in so doing the Indian names the 
bear by predicating one of his characteristics. Thus noun and verb 
are undifferentiated. In Seneca the north is “the sun never goes there,” 
and this sentence may be used as adjective or noun; in such cases noun, 
- adjective, verb, and adverb are found as one vocable or word, and the four 
parts of speech are undifferentiated. In the Pavint language a school- 
house is called Pé-kint-in-ifi-yi-kin. The first part of the word, pé-ktnt, 
signifies ‘sorcery is practiced,” and is the name given by the Indians to 
any writing from the fact that when they first learned of writing they sup- 
posed it to be a method of practicing sorcery; in-if-yi is the verb signi- 
fying “to count,” and the meaning of the word has been extended so as to 
signify “to read”; “kuin” signifies wigwam, and is derived from the verb 
“kari,” to stay.” Thus the name of the school-house literally signifies “a 
staying place where sorcery is counted,” or where papers are read. The 
Payiint in naming a school-house describes the purpose for which it is used. 
These examples illustrate the general characteristics of Indian nouns; they 
are excessively connotive; a simply denotive name is rarely found. In 
general their name-words predicate some attribute of the object named, and 
thus noun, adjective, and predicant are undifferentiated. 

In Indian languages nouns are highly connotive; in English, nouns 
are highly denotive. This connotive character of Indian nouns is well 
exemplified by the explanation given in section 2, where it is set forth 
that an Indian in speaking of the parts of the body says “‘my eye,” ‘‘my 
hand,” ‘my foot,” ‘your eye,” ‘your hand,” ‘“‘your foot,” &c., and has no 
command of. a fully differentiated noun expressive of eye, hand, or foot. 
Similar facts are exemplified in section 17, where it is explained that kinship 
terms are usually found with attached possessive pronouns. 

As explained in section 26, there is found in many Indian languages a 
series of pronouns incorporated in verbs; that is, the verb contains within 
itself incorporated article pronouns which point out with great particularity 
the gender, number, and person of the subject and the object. In this 


74 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


manner verb, pronoun, and adjective are combined, and to this extent these 
parts of speech are undifferentiated. 

In section 27 it was shown that nouns sometimes contain particles 
within themselves to predicate possession, and to this extent nouns and 
verbs are undifferentiated. In some languages the article pronoun consti- 
tutes a distinct word, but whether free or incorporated it is a complex tissue 
of adjectives. 

In section 28 it was shown that adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, and 
nouns are used as intransitive verbs, and to such extent adjectives and 
verbs, adverbs and verbs, prepositions and verbs, are undifferentiated. 

To the extent that voice, mode, and tense are accomplished by the use 
of agglutinated particles or inflections, to that extent adverbs and verbs are 
undifferentiated. 

To the extent that adverbs are found as incorporated particles in verbs, 
the two parts of speech are undifferentiated. 

To the extent that prepositions are particles incorporated in the verb, 
prepositions and verbs are undifferentiated. 

To the extent that prepositions are affixed to nouns, prepositions and 
nouns are undifferentiated. 

In all these particulars it is seen that the Indian tongues belong to a 
very low type of organization. Various scholars have called attention to 
this feature by describing Indian languages as being holophrastic, polysyn- 
thetic, or synthetic. The term synthetic is perhaps the best, and may be 
used as synonymous with undifferentiated. 

Indian tongues, therefore, may be said to be highly synthetic in that 
their parts of speech are imperfectly differentiated. 

In these same particulars the English language is highly organized, as 
the parts of speech are highly differentiated. Yet the difference is one of 
degree, not of kind. 

To the extent in the English language that inflection is used for quali- 
fication, as for person, number, and gender of the noun and pronoun, and 
for mode and tense in the verb, to that extent the parts of speech are un- 
differentiated. But we have seen that inflection is used for this purpose to 
a very slight extent. 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. T4a 


There is yet in the English language one important differentiation 
which has been but partially accomplished. Verbs as usually considered 
are undifferentiated parts of speech; they are nouns and adjectives, one or 
both, and predicants. The predicant simply is a distinct part of speech. 
The English language has but one, the verb ¢o be, and this is not always a 
pure predicant, for it sometimes contains within itself an adverbial element 
when it is conjugated for mode and tense, and a connective element when 
it is conjugated for agreement. With adjectives and nouns this verb is used 
as a predicant. In the passive voice also it is thus used, and the participles 
are nouns or adjectives. In what is sometimes called the progressive form 
of the active voice nouns and adjectives are differentiated in the participles, 
and the verb “to be” is used as a predicant. But in what is usually de- 
nominated the active voice of the verb, the English language has undiffer- 
entiated parts of speech. An examination of the history of the verb ‘‘to 
be” in the English language exhibits the fact that it is coming more and 
more to be used as the predicant, and what is usually called the common 
form of the active voice is coming more and more to be limited in its use 
to special significations. 

The real active voice, indicative mode, present tense, first person, sin- 
gular number, of the verb “to eat,” is ““am eating.” The expression “I 
eat” signifies ‘“‘I am accustomed to eat.” So, if we consider the common 
form of the active voice throughout its entire conjugation, we discover that 
many of its forms are limited to special uses. 

Throughout the conjugation of the verb the auxiliaries are predicants, 
but these auxiliaries, to the extent that they are modified for mode, tense, 
number, and person, contain adverbial and connective elements. 

In like manner many of the lexical elements of the English language 
contain more than one part of speech: “to ascend” is to go up; “to de- 
scend” is to go down; and ‘‘to depart” is to go from. 

Thus it is seen that the English language is also synthetic in that its 
parts of speech are not completely differentiated. The English, then, differs, 
in this respect from an Indian language only in degree. 

In most Indian tongues no pure predicant has been differentiated, but 


746 INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF INDIAN LANGUAGES. 


in some the verb to be, or predicant, has been slightly developed, chiefly to 
affirm existence in a place. 

It will thus be seen that by the criterion of organization Indian 
tongues are of very low grade. 

It need but to be affirmed that by the criterion of sematologic content 
Indian languages are of a very low grade. Therefore, the frequently- 
expressed opinion that the languages of barbaric peoples have a more 
highly organized grammatic structure than the languages of civilized 
peoples has its complete refutation. 

It is worthy of remark that all paradigmatic inflection in a civilized 
tongue is a relic of its barbaric condition. When the parts of speech are 
fully differentiated and the process of placement fully specialized, so that 
the order of words in sentences has its full significance, no useful purpose 
is subserved by inflection. 

Economy in speech is the force by which its development has been 
accomplished, and it divides itself properly into economy of utterance and 
economy of thought. Economy of utterance has had to do with the phonic 
constitution of words; economy of thought has developed the sentence. 

All paradigmatic inflection requires unnecessary thought. In the clause 
‘Gf he was here,” “if” fully expresses the subjunctive condition, and it is 
quite unnecessary to express it a second time by using another form of the 
verb ‘‘to be,” and so the people who are using the English language are 
deciding, for the subjunctive form is rapidly becoming obsolete with the 
long list of paradigmatic forms which have disappeared. 

Every time the pronoun he, she, or it is used it is necessary to think of 
the sex of its antecedent, though in their use there is no reason why sex 
should be expressed say one time in ten thousand. If one pronoun non- 
expressive of gender were used instead of the three, with three gender 
adjectives, then in nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cases the 
speaker would be relieved of the necessity of an unnecessary thought, and 
in the one case an adjective would fully express it. But where these inflec- 
tions are greatly multiplied, as they are in the Indian languages, alike with 
the Greek and Latin, the speaker is compelled in the choice of a word to 


HINTS AND EXPLANATIONS. 74¢ 


express his idea to think of a multiplicity of things which have no connec- 
tion with that which he wishes to express. 
A Ponea Indian, in saying that a man killed a rabbit, would have to 


say the man, he, one, animate, standing, in the nominative case, purposely 


g; 
killed, by shooting an arrow, the rabbit, he, the one, animate, sitting, in the 
objective case; for the form of a verb to kill would have to be selected, and 
the verb changes its form by inflection and incorporated particles to denote 
person, number, and gender as animate or inanimate, and gender a stand- 
ing, sitting, or lying, and case; and the form of the verb would also express 
whether the killing was done accidentally or purposely, and whether it was 
by shooting or by some other process, and, if by shooting, whether by bow 
and arrow, or with a gun; and the form of the verb would in like manner 
have to express all of these things relating to the object; that is, the person, 
number, gender, and case of the object; and from the multiplicity of para- 
digmatic forms of the verb to kill this particular one would have to be 
selected. Perhaps one time in a million it would be the purpose to express 
all of these particulars, and in that case the Indian would have the whole 
expression in one compact word, but in the nine hundred and ninety-nine 
thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine cases all of these particulars would 
have to be thought of in the selection of the form of the verb, when no 
valuable purpose would be accomplished thereby. 

In the development of the English, as well as the French and Ger- 
man, linguistic evolution has not been in vain. 

Judged by these criteria, the English stands alone in the highest rank; 
but as a written language, in the way in which its alphabet is used, the Eng- 
lish has but emerged from a barbaric condition.
