For illustrative purposes, the following chart is the consonant inventory of the Hualapai dialect of the language, which varies slightly from the Havasupai dialect. Because the two dialects have different orthographies, IPA symbols are used here. For more information about how these sounds are depicted in writing, see

232-642: A nominative/accusative case marking system, as mentioned in the morphology section. It is said that noun incorporation occurs in the language. This is notable with verbs of belonging, such as with the noun "nyigwáy(ya)," meaning "shirt." To say "to be wearing a shirt" the noun form "nyigwáy" is incorporated into the verb, appearing with a prefix for person, and suffixes for reflexiveness and auxiliaries. The noun form obligatorily also occurs before its incorporated verb form: nyigwáy shirt '-nyiggwa:y(-v)-wi 3 / 1 -shirt(- REFL )- AUX nyigwáy '-nyiggwa:y(-v)-wi shirt 3/1-shirt(-REFL)-AUX "I have

They followed it to the Humboldt Sink , then made their way to present day Genoa, Nevada at the base of the Sierra Nevada . They began their ascent of

464-490: A primary stressed (phonetically long) vowel. The most common syllable structures that occur in Havasupai-Hualapai are CV, CVC, and VC; however, consonant clusters of two or three consonants can and do occur initially, medially, and finally. At word boundaries, syllabification breaks up consonant clusters to CVC or CV structure as much as is possible. CCC and CCCC clusters occur, but they are always broken up by

522-422: A shirt on." Similar processes occur with kinship terms and verbs of belonging such as with the following noun "bi:", which means "female's brother's child/nephew/niece": e'e yes '-bi:-v-wi 3 / 1 -nephew- REFL - AUX e'e '-bi:-v-wi yes 3/1-nephew-REFL-AUX "Yes, I have a nephew/niece."

Morphologically, Hualapai-Havasupai is classified by WALS as weakly suffixing. There are different affixes for nouns, verbs, and particles in Hualapai-Havasupai, and there exist suffixes that can change nouns to verbs and vice versa. The affixes that exist—apart from word roots—are generally short in phonemic length, restricted to C, CV, VC, or V in composition. Verbs are marked for person (first, second, and third) through

It is estimated that one-third of the Hualapai people were killed during this war either by the conflict or disease. Ethnically, the Havasupai and the Hualapai are one people, although today, they are politically separate groups as the result of U.S. government policy. The Hualapai ( Pa'a or Pai ) had three subtribes –

754-594: Is stress-timed , which governs many parts of the phonological structure of the language, including where long vowels occur, what kind of consonant clusters can occur and where, and how syllable boundaries are divided. There are three types of stress : primary, secondary, and weak. All vowels can have any of these three types of stress, but syllabic consonants can only have weak stress. Primary stresses occur at regularly timed intervals in an utterance. Secondary stresses occur according to an alternating-stress system, which most commonly dictates that two secondary stresses follow

812-521: Is a Native American language spoken by the Hualapai and Havasupai peoples of northwestern Arizona. Havasupai–Hualapai belongs to the Pai branch of the Yuman–Cochimí language family , together with its close relative Yavapai and with Paipai , a language spoken in northern Baja California. There are two main dialects of this language: the Havasupai dialect is spoken in the bottom of the Grand Canyon , while

The village of Walker, Arizona , is named for him. Walker returned to the family base of Manzanita Ranch in Contra Costa County, California , in 1867. He died there on October 27, 1876, and is buried in the Alhambra Cemetery in Martinez, California . Several different places are named for Walker, including: [REDACTED]  This article incorporates public domain material from websites or documents of

1044-435: Is that the differences in speech among them lie only at the dialect level, rather than constituting separate languages, and the differences between the two dialects have been reported as "negligible". The language even bears similarity to Yavapai , and sometimes they are grouped together for means of linguistic classification (see Ethnologue ). Regarding the relationship of Havasupai and Hualapai to Yavapai, Warren Gazzam,

1102-483: Is widely discussed in the literature. Watahomigie et al. poses that the use of /β/ is attributed to older generations of Hualapai dialect speakers, and Edwin Kozlowski notes that in the Hualapai dialect, [v] is weakened to [β] in weak-stressed syllables. Thus, the underlying form /v-ul/ "to ride" surfaces as [βəʔul]. Long and short vowels are contrastive in the language. The following is a minimal pair illustrating of

1160-850: The Kingman Unified School District or the Seligman Unified School District . According to Coconino County's parcel viewer, the Hualapai reservation sections in that county are in the "Unorganized School District #00". According to Arizona law, an unorganized school district is one that does not have a high school. The portion of the Hualapai Reservation in Yavapai County is within the Seligman district.

The war broke out in May 1865, when the Hualapai leader Anasa was killed by a man named Hundertinark in the area of Camp Willow Grove and in March 1866. In response, a man named Clower was killed by the Hualapai, who also closed the route from Prescott, Arizona to the Colorado River ports due to the conflict. The most important and principal Hualapai leaders (called Tokoomhet or Tokumhet ) at that time were: Wauba Yuba ( Wauba Yuma of

1624-419: The Hualapai dialect is spoken along the southern rim. As of 2010, there were approximately 1500 speakers of Havasupai-Hualapai. UNESCO classifies the Havasupai dialect as endangered and the Hualapai dialect as vulnerable. There are efforts at preserving both dialects through bilingual education programs. The modern Hualapai and Havasupai have separate sociopolitical identities, but a consensus among linguists

1682-479: The Orthography section of this page. As shown from the chart above, aspiration is a contrastive feature in many stops and affricates in Hualapai-Havasupai. Often, consonant sounds are realized in different ways in different phonetic environments. For example, if a glottal stop occurs at the beginning of a word, it may sometimes be replaced by a vowel such as /a/. The phonemic difference between /β/ and /v/

The three numbers that can be marked in verbs are singular, paucal plural, and multiple plural. There are six types of aspect, and any verb can have as many as three and as few as zero aspect markers. The six types are distributive-iterative, continued, interrupted, perfective, imperfective, and habitual. Nouns are marked for number, case, definiteness , and demonstrativeness , as can be seen by
