11-656: Navajo River ( Jicarilla Apache : Lóolahó ) is a 54-mile-long (87 km) tributary of the San Juan River . It flows from a source in the South San Juan Wilderness of Conejos County, Colorado southwest past Chromo, Colorado . The river dips into New Mexico , passing just north of Dulce before heading northwest to a confluence with the San Juan in Archuleta County, Colorado . A large portion of its water

22-475: A reservation in present day Dulce, NM. 680 people reported their language as Jicarilla on the 2000 census. However, Golla (2007) reported that there were about 300 first-language speakers and an equal or greater number of semi-speakers (out of a total ethnic population of 3,100); the census figures therefore presumably include both fluent and semi-speakers. In 2003, the Jicarilla Apache Nation became

33-470: A stem-initial consonant, it forms a syllable of its own. When preceded by another prefix consonant, /n/ may or may not be judged to form a syllable by native speakers of Jicarilla. Jicarilla has 16 vowels : All vowels may be The long high front oral vowel is phonetically higher than its nasal and short counterparts ( [iː] vs. [ɪ, ɪ̃, ɪ̃ː] ). The short back vowel is higher than its long and nasal counterparts ( [ʊ] vs. [oː, õ, õː] ). The short low vowel

Jicarilla Apache language The traditional homelands of the Jicarilla Apache (Tinde) were located in

55-509: Is higher than its long and nasal counterparts ( [ə] vs. [aː, ã, ãː] ). Nasal vowels are indicated by underlining in the Jicarilla orthography. Jicarilla has three different tones: high, low, and falling. High tone is indicated with an acute accent. Low tone is unmarked. Falling tone is indicated by a sequence of acute-accented vowel and an unmarked vowel. Syllables may be constructed as CV, CVC, or CV:C (C – Consonant; V – Vowel) depending on

66-411: Is not enough a distinction to see difference in duration. Syllables at the end of phrases were lengthened differently from syllables lengthened because of stress; this is in regards to a ratio of onset lengthening to rhyme lengthening. This study was only a beginning to analysis of Apachean language prosody. The Athabaskan morphophonological process known as the "d-effect" occurs when 1st pl/dual iid-

77-660: Is prefixed to a verb stem. The following examples are taken from Phone, Olson and Martinez 2007: 39: The Jicarilla people have been in contact with Spanish-speaking and English-speaking peoples for a long time and have over time adopted loanwords that have influenced Jicarilla phonology. Most of the sounds used to take in a loanword from Spanish are sounds in Jicarilla. Some sounds not occurring in Jicarilla phonology are changed into Jicarilla as follows: *Or /l/ as in "béela" (from ‘pera’ ‘pear’) *Or /ʔ/ as in "ga’ée" (from ‘café’ ‘coffee’) *Or /k/ as in "kéesda" (from ‘fiesta’ ‘party’) Words of Spanish origin using /p/ in Jicarilla are

88-542: The aspirated stops in Jicarilla velar. The consonant /n/ can appear as a syllable and bear a high or low tone, but not a falling tone. High-toned /ń/ actually represents an underlying syllable, /nÍ/. There are four possible contours for Vowel-/n/ and /n/-/n/ combinations: Low-high, High-low, High-high, and Low-low. The contours are illustrated in the following table: (Modified from Tuttle & Sandoval 2002, p. 109) /n/ may occur between /t/, / ʔ /, or /n/ and any stem-initial consonant, but when /n/ occurs alone before

99-444: The first Tribe in New Mexico to certify community members to teach a Native American language. By 2012, revitalization efforts had included the compilation of a dictionary, classes, and seasonal camps for young people. Jicarilla has 34 consonants : The consonant / tʰ /, occurring in most other Athabaskan languages, only occurs alone in a few forms in Jicarilla and has mostly merged with / kʰ /. This consequently has made most of

110-473: The morphology of a sequence. Onset may be any consonant, but coda consonants are limited to / ʔ /, /l/, / ɬ /, / ʃ /, /h/, /s/and /n/. A study of the durational effects of Jicarilla Apache show that morphology and prosody both affect and determine the durational realization of consonants and syllables. It was found that in a recording of a passage read by native speakers stem, suffix, and particle syllables were found to be longer than prefix syllables, but there

121-513: The northeast and eastern regions of New Mexico. The Jicarilla Apache expanded over the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles and into the southeast section of Colorado and southwest corner of Kansas. The area supported the Jicarilla Apache with Plains Indian lifestyle. The tribe was divided among in this homeland by two clans: White Clan and Red Clan. The Jicarilla Apache went through multiple battles that led them to leave this homeland and were forced to relocate on
