<b>Description:</b>
 
Maidu (also Northeastern Maidu, Mountain Maidu) is a severely endangered Maiduan language spoken by Maidu peoples traditionally in the mountains east and south of Lassen Peak in the American River and Feather River river drainages.
Currently only one or two native speakers remain alive. (Gordon 2005) The speakers belong to the Berry Creek Rancheria of Maidu Indians.
Maidu has eighteen consonantal phonemes.
In the 1950s and 1960s, older speakers retained palatal stops (plain and ejective) where younger speakers used an innovative palatal affricate, perhaps borrowed from English. (Shipley 1964)
There are six phonemic vowels in Maidu.<i>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=3537025 ..... full article at Wikipedia]</i></td></tr>
