Note 12 — Chapter XLVI · THE GILYAKS.
Reading edition
I found that the priest was compiling a Goldi lexicon and grammar, and that, for his linguistic labours, he has received a medal from the Imperial Geographical Society. I am indebted to him for some of the words in the following short vocabulary, which will give an idea of the Manyarg, Manchu, Orochon, and Goldi tongues (which are Tunguse) compared with the Gilyak and Aïno dialects, which seem to belong to another family.
English. Manyarg. Manchu. Orochon. Goldi. Gilyak. Aïno.
