Description:

"The first extensive lexicographic work on Cayuga, an Iroquoian Iangauge spoken in southern Ontario at Six Nations of the Grand River; this dictionary contains over 3,000 entries, including 1,000 verb forms and many nouns never before recorded in print; extensive cross-referencing; thematic appendices that highlight cultural references and list 1,600 further entries; and a brief grammatical overview.". "Entries are organized by bases, which will make the dictionary especially useful to those learning Cayuga as a second language. Accurate and comprehensive, the dictionary will be an indispensable reference not only for the Cayuga speaker and student, but also for other Iroquoian speakers, linguists, anthropologists, and historians."--BOOK JACKET.
