Abstract

Abstract:I examine language samples recorded by the Scottish explorer Alexander Mackenzie, who established contact with local people in the Shuswap–Carrier–Bella Coola macroregion in 1793. The first short word list he presents affords proof of drag chain sound shifts in Carrier and lexical changes in a northwestern Shuswap dialect, and the second one illustrates the shift of *...an# to ...a# in Bella Coola. Together with Mackenzie’s data, Daniel Harmon’s 1820 Carrier word list provides a time line for completion of certain sound shifts in Carrier. Additionally, the Shuswap dialect observed by Mackenzie clearly differed from current Shuswap dialects on the lexical level.

太平洋西北三种相邻语言的旧记录:贝拉·库拉语、开利语、舒斯瓦普语

摘要:我研究了苏格兰探险家亚历山大·麦肯齐记录的语言样本，他于1793年与舒斯瓦普-卡里亚-贝拉·库拉大区的当地人建立了联系。他提供的第一个简短的单词表提供了Carrier中拖链音变化和西北Shuswap方言中词汇变化的证据，第二个单词表说明了*…An # to…在贝拉·库拉。结合麦肯齐的数据，丹尼尔·哈蒙的1820年开利词表提供了开利中某些声音转换完成的时间线。此外，麦肯齐观察到的舒斯瓦普方言在词汇层面上与现在的舒斯瓦普方言明显不同。

期刊介绍： Anthropological Linguistics, a quarterly journal founded in 1959, provides a forum for the full range of scholarly study of the languages and cultures of the peoples of the world, especially the native peoples of the Americas. Embracing the field of language and culture broadly defined, the editors welcome articles and research reports addressing cultural, historical, and philological aspects of linguistic study, including analyses of texts and discourse; studies of semantic systems and cultural classifications; onomastic studies; ethnohistorical papers that draw significantly on linguistic data; studies of linguistic prehistory and genetic classification.
