Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Kathlamet Texts The following texts were collected in the summers of 1890 and 1891 and in December, 1891. So far as I have been able to ascertain, the Kathlamet dialect is spoken by three persons only - Charles Cultee and Samson, both living at Bay Center, Washington, and Mrs Wilson, who lives at Nemah, on Shoalwater bay. Unfortunately neither Samson nor Mrs Wilson were able to give me any connected texts, so that Charles Cultee was my only informant. This is unfortunate, as he told me also Chinook texts, and is, therefore, the only source for two dialects of the Chinookan stock. In order to ascertain the accuracy of his mode of telling, I had two stories which he had told in the summer of 1891 repeated three and a half years later, in December, 1894. These stories will be found on page 54 and page 182 of the following texts. The show great similarity and corroborate the opinion which I formed from internal evidence that the language of the texts is fairly good and represents the dialect in a comparatively pure state. Cultee lived for a considerable number of 3 rears at Cathlamet, on the south side of Columbia river, a few miles above Astoria, where he acquired this dialect. His mother´s mother was a Kathlamet, his mother´s father a Xuila´paX; his father´s mother was a Klatsop, and his fathers father a TkulXiyogoa´ike, which is the Chinook name of the Tinneh tribe on upper Willapa river. His wife is a Chehalis, and at present he speaks Chehalis almost exclusively, this being also the language of his children. Cultee (or more properly QElte´)has proved a veritable storehouse of information. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
