Synopsis

Excerpt from Études sur Six Langues Américaines: Dakota, Chibcha, Nahuatl, Kechua, Quiché, Maya

Duponceau a rendu à la linguistique américaine des services qu'il serait injuste de méconnaître mais il a eu le tort grave de vouloir donner la caracté ristique des langues du nouveau-monde, sans avoir pris au préalable la peine d'étudier de près et sérieu sement les nombreux idiomes qui n'appartiennent.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a linguistic analysis of five indigenous languages of the Americas, including Dakota, Chibcha, Nahuatl, Quechua, and Maya. It examines the unique grammatical features of these languages, focusing on their use of polysynthesis, a process in which multiple morphemes are combined into a single word. The author argues that this distinct characteristic challenges the traditional classification of these languages as "primitive" and demonstrates the complexity and sophistication of their structure. By comparing the five languages, the book highlights the diversity of indigenous American languages and the need to recognize their linguistic and cultural significance. It challenges the notion that these languages are inferior or less developed than European languages and emphasizes the importance of preserving and revitalizing them. The author's analysis offers valuable insights into the relationship between language, culture, and human cognition, making this book an essential resource for linguists, anthropologists, and anyone interested in the diversity of human languages.
