  • Two Plains Cree Performances of a Pre-Victorian Kunstmärchen

    H Christoph WolfartARTICLEAnthropological linguistics2014

    Old World tales found their way into the indigenous languages of North America mainly through the fur trade. Against the background of written translations by francophone missionaries, this study documents another complementary mode of transmission: the translation of literary texts from English by a speaker of Plains Cree. It is based on two performances recorded in 1982 by kâ-mimikwatowêt /William Greyeyes on the authority of his father's broth…

  • Choice and balance in Michif negation

    Open AccessH Christoph WolfartARTICLEThe Canadian Journal of…2010

    The Michif language, while distinct from both Cree and French, combines a largely French-based nominal complex with a largely Cree-based verbal system. The syntax of negation cuts across these dimensions. Declarative sentences in Michif show the Cree-based negator namô and the French-based nô interchangeably. (This is also the only context for pas .) Imperatives, by contrast, demand the Cree-based êkâ (ya ) exclusively. In subordinate clauses, Mi…

    H Christoph WolfartARTICLEHistoriographia Linguistica1989Cited by: 1References: 10

    Among the early descriptions of the Algonquian languages of New France, thePetit Dictionaire(1703) of the baron de Lahontan stands out, despite its modest size, as the first vocabulary to appear in print. Thanks to the remarkable success of hisNouveaux Voyages, to which it forms an appendix, Lahontan's Algonquin (Ojibwa) vocabulary became very widely known, serving as either model or source for many successors (including, it appears, the first pr…

  • Boundary Maintenance in Algonquian: A Linguistic Study of Island Lake, Manitoba1

    Open AccessH Christoph WolfartARTICLEAmerican Anthropologist1973Cited by: 5References: 14

    A "mixed language" involving Cree and Ojibwa has been reported for certain isolated populations of northeastern Manitoba. Ethnohistorical and demographic studies forming part of an interdisciplinary project tend to corroborate such a view by pointing to a high degree of population mixture. The linguistic survey yields some preliminary conclusions while at the same time indicating areas for further study. Attention is also given to the use of samp…
