It preserves words and concepts that have since changed or even disappeared from the language, thus offering a unique historical window on earlier Comanche culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis translation adds the English equivalents to the original Spanish-Comanche list of 857 words, as well as a Comanche-English vocabulary and comparisons with later Comanche word lists. Daniel J. Gelo's introduction discusses the circumstances in which Garc僘 Rej gathered his material and annotates significant aspects of the vocabulary in light of current knowledge of Comanche language and culture. The book also includes information on pictography, preserving a rare sample of Comanche scapula drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis information will help scholars understand the processes of language evolution and cultural change that occurred among all Native American peoples following European contact. The \u003ci\u003eComanche Vocabulary\u003c\/i\u003e will also hold great interest for the large public fascinated by this once-dominant tribe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Manuel Garc僘 Rej\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0292727836\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780292727830\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.73h x 5.76w x 0.34d","brand":"Manuel Garc僘 Rej","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43993943015679,"sku":"9780292727830","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_53e2cd43-2cde-4e4f-a1d1-f4e3ca0887cc.jpg?v=1683327195","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/comanche-vocabulary-manuel-garca-rej-n-9780292727830","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
