Correspondence from Philip Kahclamet to Walter Dyk | 1930-1933 | Box 1: folder 16 | ||
Letters from Philip Kahclamet to Walter Dyk, in "Kikct" (Kiksht/Wishram) and English, some with separate translations. In addition to providing clarification to Dyk about aspects of the language, Kahclamet discusses the use of these letters, the publication of texts, his increasing skill in Kikct orthography, his friends' responses to academic publications on neighboring languages, payment of services provided through Edward Sapir, and his fishing activities. The letters are interpersed with lists of terms of address, notes on phonology (Dyk's hand), and lists of sentences to check for grammaticality. There is some profanity. Kahclamet writes from various locations in Washington, those noted being White Swan and Grand Dalles. In one letter, Kahclamet provides the following clarification regarding the term Kikct: "Kikct mean Wicxam [Wishram] language, the Wasco and Cascade and Clackamas, probably others closely related to it. This term is far more common than Wicxam and is used by Wicxam people only. Wicxam is always used by non Wicxamized idilxam, you are good example for this. Wicxam is a Shahaptian form for Wilxam. Do not confuse with Kictk". Access digital object: |
