Abstract:

A Vocabulary of the Older Teguima (Ópata) Language. The Teguima (Ópata)
language (Opatan subfamily, Uto-Aztecan) is a little known Uto-Aztecan
language of northern Mexico (straddling in historic times the boundary between
Sonora and Chihuahua). This work gives the data from the copious vocabulary
the Jesuit Natal Lombardo, representing Teguima around 1620. Lombardo's
recordings detail a complex prosodic system of the language, which completely
disappears in copious recordings of the language circa 1800. Because of the
drastically different sound patterns, the later data is in the companion
volume A Vocabulary of the Younger Teguima (Ópata) Language. Main entry is by
morpheme, with compounds and derivations listed as subentries. There are over
2,300 main entries. The English-Older Teguima index lists over 6,500 lexical
artifacts listed as subentries.
