Anthropological Notes | Nature

ABSTRACT TRUSTWORTHY studies on Australian languages are still greatly needed; it is therefore with pleasure that we welcome the elementary grammar, by the Rev. N. Hey, of the language of

the Nggerikudi, a tribe of some 400 natives of North Queensland in the neighbourhood of Batavia River. Although Mr. Hey has been connected with the Presbyterian Mission to these people for

ten years, he does not yet quite understand all the intricacies of the language. He notes that the aboriginals are fast disappearing. The vocabularies will be of some use to ethnologists who

cannot profess to grasp the structure of the language. This study forms the sixth Bulletin of North Queensland ethnography that the Department of Public Lands, Brisbane, is bringing out

under the editorship of Dr. Walter E. Roth. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access
