SENĆOŦEN: A Grammar of the Saanich Language

Appendix E: Index to Technical Linguistic Topics

This is an index of topics, not terms. Some of the topics listed here, such as ‘absolutive’ and ‘ergative,’ are not mentioned directly in the text but can be discerned from the sections the reference points to by a linguist who knows the concept. This index is parallel to the corresponding index in the Klallam Grammar (Montler 2015). These indexes are intended for use by linguists familiar with the technical jargon of the field. Throughout these grammars, technical jargon has been kept to a minimum and introduced only where it would seem to be a direct help to a student in understanding and learning the language. Many topics, such as reduplication or aspect, that a conventional reference grammar would group together, are spread out in various sections in these grammars to aid in exposition for the learner. This index lists those topics and brings them together for ease of reference and for ease of comparison between SENĆOŦEN and the Klallam language. Here the reference is to the section where a particular topic is covered directly or indirectly. The interested linguist may also refer to the SENĆOŦEN dictionary, which has detailed morphological and phonological analysis throughout, especially in its root and affix appendices.
