Book excerpt: This is a draft of one ot two companion dictionaries for the Dena'ina language that are now in preparation. Volume 1 is organized into subject areas such as "Birds", "Food", "Clothing", or "Shelter". Most words can be located easily by thinking about the subject area a word most naturally belongs to. This draft is tenetatively scheduled for publication in 1995. Vol. 2, a larger Integrated Morpheme Dictionary of Dena'ina will be completed sometime later. This draft is being circulated at this time in Dena'ina communities and to colleagues so that further refinements and additions can be made. Note an introduction and several chapters are not included in this draft.-- from the preface.
