Book excerpt: "Native American Language, Iroquoian language, linguistics, language dictionary. Here are collected various short but important works on the Huron language, including Brebeuf's grammatical remarks in the Jesuit Relation of 1636, Lahontan's 50-word vocabulary of 1704, two Huron prayers with interlinear translations, and assorted Huron words and translations collected from the text of the Jesuit Relations. The volume also includes three words of Neutral-the only actual fragments of the language of this important tribe that was wiped out by Iroquois attacks in the early 1650s."
