The verb is the most important and the most complex part of Navajo
grammar. For the first time, students and scholars interested in
the Navajo language have a book that presents the verb system in a
step-by-step and thorough fashion. By providing easy-to-follow
descriptions with abundant examples, this book unravels the
complexity of Navajo and reveals its expressiveness.
In Navajo, numerous prefixes combine with verb roots to form
single words that, in English translation, require a phrase or even
a sentence to convey their meaning. Therefore, verb stems and
prefixes must be mastered piece by piece to understand the
language. This volume leads the reader carefully and systematically
through the complexities of the Navajo verb system. By doing so,
the book makes Navajo more accessible to all those interested in
the American Indian language with the largest number of speakers in
the United States.
This work is outstanding for the way in which the materials and
rules are organized.Dr. Sally Midgette, coauthor of "Analytical
Lexicon of Navajo "
