Note 146 — III. A List of Words

Reading edition

Most of the words in this vocabulary are given with reasonable correctness, though the transliteration is somewhat primitive. A fuller and more accurate one may be found in the Appendix to Sproat's Scenes and Studies of Savage Life (1868), pp. 295-309, so that it is not necessary to annotate the present one. Those in Cook's Voyage and in Dawson and Tolmie's Comparative Vocabularies of the Indian Tribes of British Columbia (1884), are short and imperfect. I have a much fuller one in manuscript.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
