Abstract:

Creek (or Muskogee) is a Muskogean language spoken by several thousand 
members of the Muscogee (Creek) and Seminole nations of Oklahoma and by 
several hundred members of the Seminole Tribe of Florida. This volume is the 
first modern grammar of Creek, compiled by a leading authority on the 
languages of the southern United States.

Intended for scholars, students, and Creek instructors, this reference grammar 
describes all the major morphological and syntactic patterns in the language. 
Special attention is given to pitch accent and tone, active agreement, locative 
prefixes, tense, aspect, and switch reference. The description covers several 
hundred years of documentation and draws heavily on materials written by 
Creek speakers. It is likely to be the definitive source on the language for years 
to come.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as 
such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These 
donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return 
(U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact 
your financial advisor.

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 and sending us a form that the 
EMU Foundation fills in and 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.
