    Native American loanwords are a crucial, though little acknowledged, part of the English language. This book shows how the more than one-thousand current loanwords were adopted and demonstrates how the changing relationships between Indians and European settlers can be traced in the rate of loanword borrowing and the kinds of words adopted.Appalachian: from the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States, from the Muskogean name of the Apalachee tribe of FloridaMoose: Eastern Abenaki mos; Papoose: Narragansett papoos, child; Squash: Narragansett askutasquash; Texas: from a Caddo word, meaning friends or allies. Charles L. Cutler is also the author of Connecticuts Revolutionary Press.
