Fairbanks: Alaska Native Language Center, University of Alaska, 2012. — 719 p. Introduction and bases. ISBN 978-1-55500-115-5 In this dictionary words are alphabetized in the order familiar from English, with the two diacritics(discussed below) and the comma (discussed below) disregarded. Thus, vv, ll, ss, gg, rr, and ng are not considered single letters in alphabetization even though they represent single sounds. Furthermore, a form with a diacritic or comma is listed immediately after a form without a diacritic or comma in the same place. Thus an’uk ‘they went outside’, would come immediately after anuk ‘dog harness’; tan’geq ‘darkness’, would come immediately after tangeq ‘crackling(s)’; and ugasek ‘arctic hare’, is listed as if it were spelled *ugasek. The most comprehensive Yupik dictionary in existence, the second edition of this important work now adds extensive research on Central Alaskan Yupik, enhancing the forty years of research done by Steven A. Jacobson on the Yupik language and dialects. Over these decades, Jacobson has combed through records of explorers, linguists, missionaries, and anyone who has come in contact with the actively migratory Yupik people. Combined with information from native Yupik speakers, that research has led to a richly detailed dictionary that covers the entire language and all its dialects. The dictionary also offers sections on Yupik spelling, early vocabulary, demonstrative words, and important intersections of Yupik language and culture such as the kayak, dogsled, parka, and old-style dwellings.
