Anishinaubae Thesaurus

Description

The Anishinaubae (Chippewa/Ojibwe) language has a beauty in the spoken word| a deliberate rhythm| simplicity| and mysterious second meanings. When Basil Johnston began teaching the Anishinaubae language in the late 1960s| there were no related manuals or dictionaries suitable for beginners. To fill this void| Johnston wrote a language course and a lexicon to fill the need for course materials. Now he has broadened this labor by compiling Anishinaubae Thesaurus| which goes even further to fill a deep cultural and linguistic void. This thesaurus contains a useful sampling of the 400|000 words that comprise the Anishinaubae language| and it is intended to be a practical reference tool for teachers| translators| interpreters| and orthographers.
