A bagful of Halloween treats!
Some eerily evocative previous posts for Halloween…
From George Gibbs’s excellent 1863 dictionary
It’s hard to find Chinuk Wawa references to this Euro-American holiday, so several of the following partake more of the Halloween tradition of pulling pranks:
- HAPPY HALLOWEEN: A PART UPPER CHEHALIS, PART CHINUK WAWA MONSTROSITY? 🙂
- 1888: A HALLOWEEN TANGENT
- 1893: HAPPY CHINOOK HALLOWEEN
- THE HALLOWEENA INDIANS
- HOW TO SAY “HALLOWEEN” IN CHINUK WAWA
- 1808-1810: THE WRECK OF THE SV. NIKOLAI
- 1911: THE VAMPIRE USED A COMBINATION OF CHINOOK AND SIGN LANGUAGE 🙂
- 1846: FRÉMONT’S “NARRATIVE” AND IMPLICIT CW
- REINFORCEMENT OF THE INDIGENOUS METAPHOR BIRD : FOOL?
