Other comments: The Yana language (also Yanan) is an extinct language
that was formerly spoken by the Yana people, who lived in north-central
California between the Feather and Pit rivers in what is now the Shasta
and Tehama counties. The last speaker of the southernmost dialect, which
is called Yahi, was Ishi, who died in 1916. When the last fluent
speaker(s) of the other dialects died is not recorded. Yana is fairly
well documented, mostly by Edward Sapir. Northern dialect of Yana language has only recorded traditional numerals from 1 to 10 many years ago, not sure if they were used a traditional decimal or vigesimal system before, New data for numbers after ten is required. |
