Extracto de la gramatica mutsun
Grammar of the Mutsun Language, Spoken at the Mission of San Juan Bautista, Alta California
Produced by David Starner, David Garcia and PG Distributed Proofreaders
"Extracto de la gramática mutsun" by Felipe Arroyo de la Cuesta is a linguistic work written in the mid-19th century. This publication focuses on the grammar of the Mutsun language, which was spoken by the Native Americans of the San Juan Bautista Mission in Alta California. The book serves as an important documentation of a language and culture that faced decline and transition during the era of Spanish colonization. The opening of the text includes a preface that outlines the significance of the Mutsun language and its connection to the Mission of San Juan Bautista, providing historical context for the reader. It highlights the efforts of Father Felipe Arroyo de la Cuesta in compiling this grammatical work, referencing the unique features of the Mutsun language, such as its declension system, the absence of certain letters, and the grammatical structures in comparison to Spanish. This foundational section sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of the language's structure, including nouns, pronouns, verbs, and various grammatical rules, making it a valuable resource for linguists and those interested in Native American languages.
