"""This dictionary is an invaluable contribution to endangered language documentation and to theoretical, typological, and comparative linguistics.""—E. J. Vajda, Choice “A great resource for both academic and nonacademic audiences. It is the most comprehensive dictionary of the Nakoda (Assiniboine) language. It is a mandatory addition to reference collections at academic libraries and will be a treasured possession of every Nakoda household.”—Jurgita Antoine, director of Native language research for the American Indian Higher Education Consortium “This dictionary greatly increases the knowledge of the Nakoda (Assiniboine) language and will be a valuable resource to those wishing to better understand Siouan languages.
