Abstract

As nearly as can be ascertained, the Korosan dialects constitute an entirely separate linguistic stock among the languages of North America. Students of American Indian linguistics soom inclined to agree that only Korosan in New Mexico and Yukian in California stand apart from the nine or ten already formulated and more comprehensive North American linguistic phyla. These two islands of isolated speech have long been sources of philological problems, destroying an otherwise fairly complete theoretical pattern of American Indian languages.
