Raven Rock Cherokee-English Dictionary By Michael Joyner Kindle Edition 1310927030 9781310927034 Raven Rock Cherokee English Dictionary This dictionary was derived from the raw list of word roots and affixes collected by Dr. Duane King in his 1975 University of Georgia dissertation on the Cherokee language entitled A Grammar and Dictionary of the Cherokee Language of the Qualla Boundary in North Carolina. The word lists that were included at the end of Dr. King’s dissertation provided word roots and basic affixes in a printout from his work using IBM computer punch cards that he created for a program he described in his seminal dissertation. This program was devised as a way to generate complete verb forms for the major tenses. Computer technology has, however, made dramatic advances since 1975. The major hurdle for this work was entering the data by hand from the barely legible photocopies of the 1975 printout that are available today. The raw data were painstakingly scrutinized, cross checked, and manually entered into a database created for generating this dictionary. The hope that Dr. King expressed in his dissertation was to “someday facilitate the compilation of a nearly complete Cherokee dictionary.” It is our hope that this dictionary furthers that worthy goal. In addition, it is our sincere hope that this dictionary will become an inspirational resource to help preserve and promote the Eastern Cherokee dialect as it is spoken on the Qualla Boundary by Dr. King’s informants from Big Cove and their descendents. It is also our hope that this dictionary will not only expand and contribute to the preservation and growth of the Eastern dialects of the Cherokee language, but also be a resource that fills in gaps in other resources as it includes many words that are not in the Cherokee English Dictionary or other sources.
