Other Notes

There is only one library listed on WorldCat as having this resource: Cuyamaca College. We are unaware of any other locations housing this dictionary. It may be available through the language community.

At the time this dictionary was published, Tiipai and Ipai, along with a third language (Kumeyaay, also known as Kumiai, Central Diegueño, Kamia, 'Iipay Aa, and Campo), were considered three dialects of a single Diegueño language. We are unable to access this resource to determine how or if the included languages are marked or specified. However, the dictionary's reference on WorldCat specifies the inclusion of both languages in its description.
