With the end of each passing generation, languages of various tribes have become more endangered. Lan- guage programs within several Native Tribes are actively working to preserve their respec- tive languages for future generations to come. The U.S. Department of Health and Hu- man Service’s Administration for Native Americans (ANA), along with other agencies, co-hosted the 2018 Native American Lan- guages Summit: Honoring the Gift of Native American Languages as a two day event at the Sheraton Midwest City Hotel at the Reed Conference Center in Midwest City, Okla. The summit was an opportunity for tribal language programs to share and present cur- rent teaching methods and other resources used within their programs. Of the many programs present, the Cheyenne and Arapaho Language Program shared information on their current Master Apprentice (MA) grant that will end in The Cheyenne and Arapaho Language Program was one of the Tribes who presented at the 2018 Native American Languages Summit in Midwest City, Okla. James 2019.

Cowell With the advances in web technologies, production and distribution of the language learning resources for language revitalization have become easy, inexpensive and widely accessible. However, not all of the web-based language learning resources stimulate language revitalization. This thesis explores the language ideologies used and produced by the Algonquian language learning resources to determine the most successful way to further develop online resources for the revitalization of the Arapaho language with the Arapaho Language Project. The data was collected on Algonquian language learning websites as well as during field research on the Wind River Indian Reservation; this field research included observing Arapaho language classrooms and conducting a usability survey of the Arapaho Language Project.

    A Synthesis of Obviation in Algonquian Languages by Irina Volchok A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Linguistics University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright© 2019 Irina Volchok iii Abstract One of the most prominent features of the Algonquian languages of North America is obviation, a third person referencing system. Although it has been known for nearly 400 years, linguists are still debating about its role and function. This work seeks to synthesize what is already known about obviation and what is still unresolved. More specifically, it looks at the syntactic and discourse working principles of obviation in different types of noun phrases, and in single, conjoined, complement, and adverbial clauses, as well as in narratives and in elicitation. iv Table of Contents Abstract .......................................................................................................................................... iii Table of Contents ........................................................................................................................... iv Chapter I: Introduction .................................................................................................................... 1 1.1 Geographical Location of Algonquian Languages ................................................................ 1 1.2 Classification of Algonquian Languages ...........................................................................

  • Algonquian Grammar Myths
    Algonquian grammar myths Will Oxford University of Manitoba This paper seeks to clarify several misconceptions that occasion- ally arise with respect to direct-inverse marking, person hierar- chies, obviation, and transitivity in the Algonquian languages. The paper presents illustrative data from a variety of Algonquian languages and is intended to serve as a reference for some of the more complex principles of Algonquian morphosyntax. 1 Introduction The Algonquian languages are known for their complex and typologically unusual morphosyntax. Despite the existence of a comprehensive descriptive framework (especially Bloomfield 1962 and Goddard 1969), certain misconceptions about Algonquian morphosyntax have arisen both within and outside the Al- gonquianist literature. This paper seeks to clarify several of these “Algonquian grammar myths”, with the more general goal of highlighting what is known about these difficult aspects of Algonquian grammar. I have tried to limit the identification of “myths” to matters of descriptive fact. Many morphosyn- tactic phenomena in Algonquian are controversial, such as whether obviation can be understood as switch- reference (Muehlbauer, 2012), whether unspecified-actor forms are impersonal or passive (Dryer, 1996), whether transitive inanimate theme signs are derivational or inflectional (Piggott, 1989; Goddard, 2007), and whether transitive animate theme signs mark hierarchical alignment, object agreement, or viewpoint aspect (Wolfart, 1973; Rhodes, 1976; Bliss, Ritter, & Wiltschko, 2014). Regardless of one’s stance on these issues, it would be unfair to refer to opposing positions as myths. In other cases, however, it is clear that certain descriptive statements are inadequate. This paper focuses on such clear cases, though I acknowledge that my judgments may reflect my own biases, and I may well be labouring under some myths of my own.

  • Let's Learn Arapaho
    Let’s Learn Arapaho An Introduction to the Arapaho Language By Andrew Cowell, in consultation with Alonzo Moss, Sr, Northern Arapaho Tribe Produced by: Center for the Study of Indigenous Languages of the West (CSILW), University of Colorado Copyright: Andrew Cowell First Edition: June, 2000 Second Edition, September, 2009 Note: Permission is hereby granted to Arapaho individuals and institutions to reproduce these materials for the purpose of language learning. All other reproduction is restricted by copyright. 2 LET'S LEARN ARAPAHO This is not a reference grammar of Arapaho. This means that the grammar does not present all the details of Arapaho grammar at one time. Rather, it is a progressive, pedagogical grammar, designed for teaching and learning, and it forms the basis of a potential textbook for learning Arapaho. Grammatical information is presented in a carefully sequenced way for the purposes of gradual learning, rather than in a complete manner for each topic. The grammar is intended for students learning Arapaho, and would ideally be used with a series of dialogues illustrating the use of the various grammatical features in conversations, a series of exercises for students following the grammatical explanations, a series of recorded tapes providing additional listening and practice, and a teacher equipped with a teacher's manual. Some of this material is included in this edition,a nd more will gradually be added. Because this is a pedagogical grammar, certain grammatical features are initially explained otherwise than they might be in a reference grammar. For example, in relation to verbs, we begin by talking about "stem shortening" when the verbs have prefixes.

  • Appositive Possession in Ainu and Around the Pacific
    Appositive possession in Ainu and around the Pacific Anna Bugaeva1,2, Johanna Nichols3,4,5, and Balthasar Bickel6 1 Tokyo University of Science, 2 National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics, Tokyo, 3 University of California, Berkeley, 4 University of Helsinki, 5 Higher School of Economics, Moscow, 6 University of Zü rich Abstract: Some languages around the Pacific have multiple possessive classes of alienable constructions using appositive nouns or classifiers. This pattern differs from the most common kind of alienable/inalienable distinction, which involves marking, usually affixal, on the possessum and has only one class of alienables. The language isolate Ainu has possessive marking that is reminiscent of the Circum-Pacific pattern. It is distinctive, however, in that the possessor is coded not as a dependent in an NP but as an argument in a finite clause, and the appositive word is a verb. This paper gives a first comprehensive, typologically grounded description of Ainu possession and reconstructs the pattern that must have been standard when Ainu was still the daily language of a large speech community; Ainu then had multiple alienable class constructions. We report a cross-linguistic survey expanding previous coverage of the appositive type and show how Ainu fits in. We split alienable/inalienable into two different phenomena: argument structure (with types based on possessibility: optionally possessible, obligatorily possessed, and non-possessible) and valence (alienable, inalienable classes). Valence-changing operations are derived alienability and derived inalienability. Our survey classifies the possessive systems of languages in these terms. Keywords: Pacific Rim, Circum-Pacific, Ainu, possessive, appositive, classifier Correspondence: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] 2 1.

This gives rise to some debate regarding which aspects of voicing patterns arise from inherent articulatory effects related to the production of a voicing distinction, and which aspects are intentional adjustments by speakers meant to enhance a phonological contrast.
