Ikt Chinook WawaBook
A Chinook Jargon Phrasebook & Primer
The vocabularies offered
here are a compilation of several sources, and so incorporate words used in
different regions and dialects that may not have been used in all parts of
the Chinook-speaking world. This reference index is found at the end
of all pages in this phrasebook. The Chinook-English Index accesses
the page described via the section where listing is by Chinook words first;
the English-Chinook Index accesses the same pages where English words are
listed first. For a straight English-Chinook glossary please select
the English-Chinook Reference.
I have not yet built a full Chinook-English glossary, but one will eventually
be added to these pages.
