Other comments: Quechan (also known as Kwatsáan, Kwatsáan Iiyáa, or Yuma) has a decimal system similar to that of Maricopa and Mojave. Quechan is a moribund language spoken by 290 speakers only in 3,000 ethnic population in Southeast corner of California, Fort Yuma Reservation. Notes: (a) Quechan numerals are
verbs. To extract a counting form from a verb with a (b) c represents the affricate [ts], and ə represents the inorganic vowel. An acute accent indicates stress; a colon indicates vowel length; and variable vowel length is indicated by a parenthesized colon. (c) In previous generations, words for 6, 8, and 10 were pronounced with a long stressed vowel. Today they may be pronounced with either a long or a short stressed vowel. (d) 11 through 19 literally mean ‘be one on top of ten’, ‘be two on top of ten’, etc. (e) 20 through 100 literally mean ‘be two times ten’, ‘be three times ten’, etc. (f) For 1000, previous generations used the expression ṣa:xú:k a:ṣa:xú:k a:ṣa:xú:k (literally ‘be ten times ten times ten’); the present generation uses the loan word mí:l (borrowed from Spanish mil). 2000 was recorded only from the present generation. |
