Abstract:

nɬeʔkèpmxcín: Thompson River Salish Speech is a 600-page collection 
presenting a variety of speech: 45 stories, prayers, songs, a conversation, 
and a traditional oration, with interlinear grammatical analysis and English 
translation. The speech was gathered from the last, best speakers in the 
1970s and 1980s. The book uses formal devices to make the language 
accessible to non-speakers. Each nɬeʔkèpmxcín sentence or clause is 
followed by two explanatory lines: an English morpheme-by-morpheme gloss 
and an English translation. The nɬeʔkèpmxcín is written in surface phonemic 
form, using the American(ist) phonetic alphabet (APA). The book is a must-
have for speakers or learners of the language, Interior Salishanists, and those 
interested in traditional Amerindian oral literature. It is intended to be a 
companion volume to the Thompson River Salish Dictionary by Laurence C. 
and M. Terry Thompson, which will be reprinted soon.

Whatcom Museum Publications is a continuation of the University of 
Montana Occasional Papers in Linguistics (UMOPL). When the long-time 
editor Tony Mattina retired from the University of Montana and moved to 
Arizona, the series moved to the Whatcom Museum in Bellingham, 
Washington.
