Abstract:
This third volume of our Ute language collection contains the Ute dictionary.
It opens with several introductory chapters that link the dictionary to our
Ute Reference Grammar (2011) and explain the structure and use of the
dictionary. The bulk of the information on the meaning and usage of Ute words
is then given in the Ute-English part. The English-Ute part, next, serves
primarily as a search-and-reference tool. A short section on traditional
semantic-cultural fields follows. Ute is a Northern Uto-Aztecan language of
the Numic sub-family. Together with its northern dialects (Southern Paiute,
Uintah, White River), it should be considered a single language, Núuchi ("of
the people") or Núu-'apaghapi ("the people's speech"). While our work was done
primarily in the southern dialects (Southern Ute, Ute Mountain, Uncompaghre),
we have included as many words as could be safely extracted from Powel's and
Smith's work on the northern dialects, as well as some from Sapir's work
(1931) on Northern Ute, adjusting them to Southern-dialect pronunciation. This
brings the work as close as one could hope, at this time, to a comprehensive
all-Ute dictionary, a task that yet remains to be done. We have tried to
emphasize in the Ute-English entries the historical and derivational
connectivity of Ute vocabulary and its gradual growth and expansion. This is
also underscored in the introductory chapter on word derivation. While this
work remains incomplete, we hope it can be some day expanded into an
all-inclusive Ute dictionary, and will help the people – Núuchiu – preserve
their language and culture.

as such can receive donations through the eLinguistics Foundation,
which is a registered 501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal
Tax number is 45-4211155. These donations can be offset against

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department

returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
