INDIAN LANGUAGES.
Grammar Of American Tongues Is
Elaborate and Difficult.

Prof. A. L. Kroeber of the Universi.
ty Of California declares that Indian
languages are not jargon, as is pop
ularly believed, says the Scientific
American. In pamphlet recently is
sued on the Yukuts and Yuli Ian
guages he affirms that Indian langu.
ages possess an elaborate and dificult
grammar, though thie Is unknown to
the Indians themselves, and must be
extracted by the Investigations of
scientists.
The two languages which Prof. Kroe-
ber selected for experiments had abb
solutely no similar words They are
more different than English and Rus
sian. The Yukuts and the Yuki are
not even in territorial contact, and
show no signs of common origin. The
Yuki live Ia northern California, in the
coast range, and the Yukuts are To-
Gated in the interior of south central
California. in the southern end OF the
San Joaquin valley.
Though Prof. Kroeber found that
the grammatical structure of their
languages was identical at nearly
every point, their words were wholly
dissimilar. The two languages is full
of interest. The order of words diff
fers quite thoroughly. In Yukuts the
adjective precedes the noun; in Yuki
IL follows. Yukuts tend to place the
verb at the head of the sentence; Yuki
at the end The numerical systems Of
the two languages are radically diff
ferent That of Yukuts is decimal; Of
Yuh quarternary.
1t is noted by Dr. Kroeber that Cal
ifornia has more totally distinct In
dian languages a square mile than any
other state. The reason for this great
variety Of languages has never been
accounted for.
