Description: This first pedagogical grammar of the Papago language features twenty chapters on grammatical constructions and five sample dialogs-plus abbreviations, symbols, summary of grammatical elements, and two glossaries. Classroom-tested for teaching both native and non-native speakers, the text also offers linguists an overview of the Papago language not available elsewhere.
Review Quotes: "A praiseworthy pedagogical grammar, one that leads the reader gradually from the simpler to the more complex grammatical structures. The reader who learns the contents of the 25 lessons will acquire a fairly broad knowledge of Papago grammar."--American Anthropologist
