CONTENT DESCRIPTION
AbstractThe first part of this program consists of a Hidatsa word list elicited by the reading of English terms and phrases from the Mandan-English section of Robert C. Hollow's Mandan dictionary. (See Related Resource.) Some of the entries are skipped. The Mandan equivalents from the dictionary are infrequently given. Includes occasional discussion of context and usage of given words, as well as occasional comments on Hidatsa social life and customs. From 48:45 through the end of the recording, the program switches into a discussion of Hidatsa folklore, the history of Mandan and Hidatsa settlements in the area, nearby geographical locations, and miscellaneous aspects of Hidatsa material culture.
NoteThe Hidatsa language is referred to on the recording by one of its alternate names, "Gros Ventre." This Gros Ventre is not to be confused with the Atsina language of the same name. This program was originally recorded on the collector's original tape 74, channel 2.
