[765] In fact this very word was first given "as an ordinary example" by Kleinschmidt, _Gram. d. Gronlandischen Sprache_, Sect. 99, and is also quoted by Byrne, who translates: "They disapproved of him, because he did not give to him, when he heard that he would go off, because he had nothing" (_Principles_, etc., I. p. 140).

See also the "Handbook of American Indian Languages," Part I by Franz Boas and others, _Bureau of American Ethnology, Bulletin 40_, 1911. The Introduction by F. Boas gives a good general idea of the characteristics of these languages and deals shortly with related problems.

[767] Following this ethnologist's convenient precedent, I use both in _Ethnology_ and here the final syllable _an_ to indicate stock races and languages in America. Thus _Algonquin_ = the particular tribe and language of that name; _Algonquian_ = the whole family; _Iroquois_, _Iroquoian_, _Carib_, _Cariban_, etc.
