	::: American Indians of the Pacific Northwest Collection :::
		Lushootseed comes from two words, one meaning "salt water" and the other meaning "language," and refers to the common language, made up of many local dialects, that was spoken throughout the region.
		Lushootseed territories covered a large part of what is now western Washington, from near present-day Bellingham south to the state capital of Olympia, and from the Cascade Mountains west to Hood Canal.
		Lushootseed origin stories also place the creation of their world far in the past, when the world was in flux.

	Lushootseed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lushootseed is a member of two main divisions of the Salishan language group, Coast Salish and Interior Salish.
		Lushootseed, like its neighbour Twana, is in the Southern Coast Salish subgroup of the Salishan family of languages.
		The language was spoken by many Puget Sound region peoples, including the Duwamish, Suquamish, Squaxin Island Tribe, Nisqually, and Puyallup in the south and the Snohomish, Skagit, and Swinomish in the north.

	introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In Lushootseed, however, the function of the pronoun is taken on by the verb.
		Lushootseed commonly repeats syllables -- or parts of them -- as a way of indicating that an action is done repeatedly, for instance, or done only part way.
		As for vocabulary, Lushootseed is comprised of a large number of words that might be considered fairly specialized, a specialization due in large part to the natural environment in which the language is spoken.

		Vi brings out Lushootseed with every audience she addresses, especially traditional gatherings, so that this ancient language can be heard throughout Puget Sound, where it has been spoken for centuries.
		Current teachers of Lushootseed include Zolmai “Zeke” Zahir (at the Muckleshoot Reservation and privately to adults and children in the Seattle area), David Cort and Tobey Langen (at the Tulalip Reservation), and Carmen Shone at Skagit Valley College and at the Upper Skagit and Swinomish reservations, where Lora Pennington also teaches.

	Park, Surface Opacity: Abstract
		I show that various leading proposals made to handle surface opacity within the non-serial versions of OT cannot characterize the opacity cases in Klamath that are created by the interaction between phonology and reduplicative morphology and by the interaction of purely phonological rules.
		I show that in Lushootseed, the diminutive allomorphy, a case of the emergence of the unmarked, provides support for a constraint-based account, whereas the opaque interaction of the diminutive allomorphy with vowel reduction and syncope, which cannot be properly handled within the non-derivational OT framework, provides evidence for a derivational account.
		The innovations needed in the constraint-based LP framework are (1) the base-derivative faithfulness relation, which holds between the optimal output of a cycle or level and its derivative on a subsequent derivation, and (2) constraint rerankings on a level-by-level basis.

	Lushootseed (Whulshootseed, Upper Salish, Puget Sound Salish)

		Lushootseed dialects have included Skagit, Swinomish, Snohomish/Tulalip, Sauk-Suiattle, Duwamish, Muckleshoot, Nisqually, Puyallup, Sahewamish, Skykomish, Snoqualmie, and Suquamish; unfortunately, some of these dialects are no longer spoken today.
		All told only a few dozen elders are still fluent in the Lushootseed language, but some younger people are working to keep their ancestral language alive.

	LISTSERV 14.4
		Only a decade ago, Lushootseed, an ancient language used by Coast Salish American Indian tribes along the northern coast of Washington, was a mystery to most Tulalip tribal members.
		In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, tribal children were forbidden to speak their native language when they were sent to boarding schools, a federal experiment designed to absorb Indians into mainstream culture.
		Once families begin using Lushootseed in their homes, the hope is that the language will come to life.

	lushootseed
		Lushootseed is spoken from the Skagit River Valley near Bellingham, along the eastern shores of Puget Sound through Seattle, Tacoma, Nisqually, Olympia and Shelton, as well as some areas on the western side of Puget Sound such as Suquamish near Poulsbo.
		Knowing that culture and language are inseparable, many tribal communities included in the Lushootseed speaking areas are now actively involved in the recovery of the language.
		The Lushootseed language is alive, evolving and relevant in the modern world.

		Lushootseed vocabulary, phrases, expressions, dialogues are already working their way into the cultural events, ceremonies, potlatches and council meetings.
		The younger the students, the more apt they are to pick up the cognitive language skills to improve their fluency.

	LINGUIST List 12.2062: Urbanczyk, Reduplication in Lushootseed
		U's goal is to support GT by showing that the phonological properties of the three Lushootseed reduplicative morphemes are derivable from this minimal information (together with a specification of the morpheme's alignment with respect to its base), and from the general constraint ranking of the language.
		In particular, it is not necessary to specify in the lexicon each reduplicant morpheme's shape; nor, in the case of infixes, is it necessary to specify in the lexical entry where that infix appears relative to the rest of the stem (at least in this case).
		A word in Lushootseed can contain more than one reduplicative morpheme; such words are the topic of chapter five, 'Double Reduplications and the Base.' The base of the outer reduplicative morpheme is the entire string consisting of the root plus the inner reduplicative morpheme.

	The Canadian Journal of Linguistics
		The Salishan language Lushootseed shows an unusual pattern in its verbal morphology wherein its verbs are formed from intransitive, adjective-like roots via a highly productive set of suffixes, the bulk of which serve to increase the valency of their stem.
		In addition, the syntactic properties of the Lushootseed passive formed by combining a transitivizing suffix with the middle-marker can be analyzed as straightforward consequences of the meanings of the affixes that compose it.
		Treating Lushootseed causatives as subtypes of the transitive event model suggests that cross-linguistically transitive-causatives as well as instrumentals and applicatives may be subschematic extensions of the simple transitive clause, rather than derivations from more complex, biclausal structures.
