Download or read book The Chinook Jargon and How to Use It written by George C. Shaw and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-22 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A READY lexicon of interest to students and scholars of Indian languages. The work is the most comprehensive and exhaustive study of the Chinook jargon in existence to-day, comprising a complete grammar and dictionary, with nearly three thousand specimens of colloquial and narrative phrases, with English translations, etc. It is intended to afford a complete lexicon for the use of students and scholars, as well as an attractive and characteristic souvenir of the Alaskan-Yukon-Pacific Exposition. The Chinook jargon is the prevailing medium of intercourse between the whites and the natives, and is spoken by about thirty thousand people in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, British Columbia, and in some parts of Alaska. It is one of the most curious specimens of a "mixed language" which philologists have had the opportunity of analyzing, and has been termed a genuine “international speech,” which “may well serve, if not as a model, at least as a finger-post to direct us to some higher invention for sub-serving the larger uses of an advanced civilization.” —Publishers Weekly, Volume 75, [1909]

Not illustrated. 1909 Excerpt: ...Example: Mamook tamahnous, --to conjure; "make medicine." Masahchie tamahnous, --witchcraft or necromancy. Mr. Anderson restricts the true meaning of the word to conjuring. Halo yaka mitlite tamahnous, --he has no guardian spirit. "'Klale Tah-mah-na-wis, ' the name of the secret society of black magic."--Phillips. "There were four kinds of tamahu-a-wis, sometimes spelled ta-mahno-us, or spirit practices in vogue among the Twanas as there were among the great family of Selish Indians in Washington. The word ta-mahn-a-wis may be and was used in the sense of a noun, an adjective or a verb. As, a noun it means any kind of a spirit in the spirit world from the Sahg-ha-lie Tyoe, or supreme being, to the klail ta-mahn-awis, or devil, literally, black spirit. As an adjective a ta-mahn-a-wis stick, stone, person, etc., is a thing or individual with a ta-mahn-a-wis or spirit either of good or evil in it. As a verb It Is used in the sense of invoking the aid of spirits, as 'mah-mok ta-mahn-awis.' The four kinds of ta-mahn-a-wis of the Indians of the Twana tribe at least are: The ta-mahn-a-wis over the side, ' the incantations of the medicine men; the 'red ta-mahn-a-wis, ' the 'black ta-mahna-wis, ' and the 'spirit land tamahn-a-wis.' The sick ta-mahn-a-wis was only practiced for the healing of the sick. The red, or pill ta-mahn-a-wis, was an assembling together, an invocation, in short, of the spirits for a good season the following summer. It lasted three or four days and consisted of singing, dancing, the beating of tom-toms, drums and the decoration of the face and limbs and body invariably with streaks and spots of red paint. The black, or klail ta-mahn-a-wis, was the free masonry of the Twanas and was without doubt the one great religion of all ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dictionary of the Chinook Jargon: Or, Trade Language of Oregon The introduction of the Cree and Chippeway words is of course due to the Canadians. None have been derived from the Spanish, as their intercourse with the Nootka and Makah Indians was too short to' leave an, impression. Spanish words, especially those relating to horses or mules and their equipments, have of late come into general use in Oregon, owing to intercourse with California, but they form no part of the Jargon. It might have been expected from the number of Sandwich Islanders introduced by the Hudson's Bay company, and long resident in the country, that the Kanaka element would have found its way into the language, but their utterance is so foreign to the Indian ear, that not a word has been adopted.
