Karl V. Teeter & John D. Nichols, Wiyot Handbook. I: Glossary and Concordance. II: Interlinear Translation and English Index. Algonquian and Iroquoian Linguistics Memoirs 10-11. 423 pp. and 315 pp. $60 and $50 ($90 for the set). --- The only modern description of Wiyot, Teeter's The Wiyot Language (1964), lacks a lexicon. With these volumes Teeter & Nichols nicely fill this awkward lacuna. The first volume is a concordance of the words in the texts in Teeter's The Wiyot Language (1964), combined with a lexical index to the grammar in the same volume. The second volume contains word-by-word interlinear translations of the texts in Teeter 1964 and an English index to the concordance and glossary in the first volume. --- Order from: Voices of Rupert's Land Fund, c/o Linguistics Dept., Univ. of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba R3T 2N2, Canada.
