Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the Otchipwe language, spoken by the Chippewa Indians of the United States. The author, a missionary working with these tribes, sought to create the first comprehensive grammar of the language. He notes the challenges of this undertaking, lacking previous works to draw upon. The book details the unique features of the Otchipwe language, highlighting its complex system of verb conjugation and the unusual distinction between animate and inanimate nouns. This is particularly significant as the author emphasizes the importance of understanding these linguistic intricacies for gaining insight into the rich history and cultural relationships of Native American tribes. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in language, philology, or the history and culture of the Native American people. It provides a rare window into a language and culture that has long been overlooked. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781333905989_0
