TRANSCRIBER'S ENDNOTE:
Page 18: "Prof. F. Lanenscheidt" probably refers to "Prof. F.
Langenscheidt", but the original spelling has been retained because it
is repeated in an Index entry. Also, in "/Sprachen und Literaturen/ by
Prof. Felix Flügel,[21]", changed the footnote anchor to 31.
Page 20: quotation mark added to the end of "we have no dialects.".
Page 42, footnote 9: "/Beaver and Hunting/" changed to /Beaver/ and
/Hunting/.
Page 66, footnote 6, "Lewis and Clarke" changed to "Lewis and Clark"
(but recall that footnotes have been moved to the ends of chapters--so
this particular footnote now appears between pages 96 and 97.).
Page 92: "a-n-aice" on page 92 appears as "a-ñ-aice" in the index on
page 340.
Page 103, footnote 4: this footnote was printed on two lines, which
originally were printed incorrectly in reverse order. They have been
switched.
