Started but needs expansion

[edit]

More than a stub, but needs work. ---- Skookum1 (6 May 06)

The examples provided in the 'Words and Phrases' section could be glossed and better formatted. For example, including morpheme breaks in the Witsuwit'en phrases would help a reader more accurately interpret the relevant morphology. It may also be helpful to include an Athabaskan family tree in the article, especially when discussing the relationship between Babine-Witsuwit'en and Carrier.

Added grammatical information

[edit]

I've gone through and added more of the technical linguistic aspects of Babine-Witsuwit'en, including sections on lexical categories, grammatical relations, and voice/valence. I've also added a vowel chart to the phonology section and added necessary citations throughout. I've changed the formatting on existing examples to make things more cohesive - however, if whoever initially added these examples is unhappy with my edits, please feel free to change them.
