EXPLANATORY SUGGESTIONS.
Tribes from different regions of country made slightly
different use of the Chinook and varied its pronunciation
slightly.
The phonetic spelling, accents, etc., of this edition give
the most generally aceepted form of Chinook as used by
old pioneers and the Indsans themselves.
The examples of conversation given in the appendix
will show that the "grammar" of the jargon was very
deficient.
The pronunciation of the Chinook can only be thoroughly
learned by cDnversation with the Indians, whose deep
guuursls and long-drawn vowels are beyond the power of
our alphabet to represent. Most of their words are unaccented, the stress of voice falling noon the emphatic word
of a sentence rather than upon particular syllableS. As
far as possible the present edition represents by accents
and marked vowels the exaCt sounds.
.4 flcet, as In wa-wa, ktat-awa, and similar worda, has
usually the sound of en'. Ah Is pronounced either as h or
as a In naf, the pronunciation varying slightly among different tribes. E lone aud the short sound of I are nearly
Identical In Chinook, except final a or ,which have the
sane value as In English.
0 aud er are pronounced as in atmilar English ayllables,

understandlog and fluent use of the language.
In tins e'lOion we ptiNlsh br the rst time an Appendix
to each dit,iou of thl, Dictionary. The additional words
4
in this Appendix are principally old words which are rarely used, but which belong to the Chinook and are in use in
some sections of the Northwest,
There are no grammatical rules, or next to none, in the
arron. For example, 'le-doo" means either finger or finla-moo-to" a sheep or a hundred sheep.
A shift is made to express the comparison of adjectives,
as: "kloshe," good; "weght kiosbe," better, or literally
"more good," "clip kloshe," beat,
PREFACE.
The ilrst attempt at oubilcation of the trappers' and
traders' Indian Jargon in use among the coast and intcrtor
tribes of the Northwest, was made In 1525, by a sailor who
was captured from the ship Boston, which was surprised by
Indians at Nootka Sound. her captain and crew inurde red,
the aiIor who Issued hI adventures under the tttle, 'Thc
Captive in Noolka" and later the "Traders' Dictionary,'
being the only survivor.
Several little books, mostly for traders' use, have beer
printed In this jargon A worthy ml lonary publishei

spoke them.
Of the ancient language of the Cbinooksabout three
hnndrc'l words are given In the present dictionary, the re
inder being words from other coast tribe' aklmaa

the Columbia and the other from centrnl Oregon, made
i1mse1f perfectly understood in this accommodating jargon,
which was in use from the Hoeky doufltains to the Pacific
as a trading language. A similar need exists among the
great ctv tilted nations of to-day, and Ii is a tar greater necessity than the barbarlous tribes of the northwest could
ever have experienced.
With the coming of the white man, making known to
the Indian the weapons, the luxuries and the vices of civilization, came the need of extending the Chinook to cover
these new conditions. He could not say' carbine' so the
word became "calipeen." The Canadians called the hand
"to maim," and the Indian came at last to use neatly the
same sound. Thus English and French worls were grafted upon the Cbinook jargon, the present edition has been
made as nearly perfect as possible by comparison with all
existing authorities, and the additlo of very nsany wnrd
never before published in any Chinook Dlgtloarv, though
in common use. The vocabulary was entirely revised and
corrected by a gntIeman familiar with Chinook and many
Indian languses Irons boyhood, and the publishers, who
have sold thousands of previooa editions, con ildently rec-ominen'i this little book as the 'uc phss ellen of Cfllnook
dictionaries.
