Sumario: | "The approximately five thousand words in this volume encompass the main artery of the langauge heard and psoken by the parents and grandparents of the Ponca Council of Elders. Additional words are included, such as those related to modern devices adn technology. This dictionary has been compiled at a time when the southern Poncas are initiating a new syntactic structure to the language, as few can speak a full sentence. This dictionary is not intented to recover a cultural period or practice but rather as a reference to the spoken langauge of the people." (page 4 of cover) |
