Dorsey 8 reel microfilm finding aid

[Bryan James Gordon]

One more Hidatsa student has come to my attention:

I got to hear Indrek Park talk about Hidatsa pitch accent at the LSA
conference last
weekend. His talk was interesting. Even though Hidatsa has pitch accent
only, while Omaha and Ponca (and the rest of the Mississippi Valley
languages too?) have stress, there seem to be many features in common
between their systems. I wish Rory could have been there!

(The only difference, as far as I can tell, between a "stress" language and
a "mere pitch accent" language is whether accent lengthens syllables, which
it apparently does not do in Hidatsa if Indrek Park is correct, but
certainly does in Omaha & Ponca.)
