OverviewThe language of the Otchipwe (Ojibway/Ojibwe) people was recorded by Bishop Frederic Baraga (1797-1868), a missionary priest from Slovenia, who was sent in 1835 by the Catholic church to serve among the Ojibway living in the Lake Superior region. The multilingual Baraga quickly learned the Ojibway language and over many years worked within the community to produce a dictionary, a grammar, and religious literature. In 1853 the first edition of A Dictionary of Otchipwe Language Explained in English was published. More than a hundred years later, this dictionary remains a classic and the most useful for a wide range of dialects. It is an important cultural and linguistic source for historians, anthropologists, linguists, ethnologists, and all students interested in the Ojibway language. Revisions were made to the original dictionary in 1878 and 1880. The current edition is a reprint of Bishop Baraga's ORIGINAL dictionary.
