Description:
Hupa (native name: Na:tinixwe Mixine:whe) is an Athabaskan language (of Na-Dené stock) spoken in the Trinity valley in California by the Hupa (Natinixwe).
Morphologically, it is remarkable for having an extremely small number— perhaps less than one hundred— of basic (monomorphemic) nouns, as nearly all nouns in the language are derived from verbs.
According to the results of Census 2000, the language is spoken by 64 persons between the ages of 5 and 17, including 4 with limited English ability...... full article at Wikipedia |
