The Great Tzotzil Dictionary of San Lorenzo Zinacantan Robert M. Laughlin SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF T H E S M I T H S O N I A N INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available. S. DILLON RIPLEY Secretary Smithsonian Institution \ . SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 FRONTISPIECE: Hillside home overlooking Zinacantan Center on a misty morning, 1960. The Great Tzotzil Dictionary of San Lorenzo Zinacantan Robert M. Laughlin SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION PRESS CITY OF WASHINGTON 1975 ABSTRACT Laughlin, Robert M. The Great Tzotzil Dictionary of San Lorenzo Zinacantan. Smith- sonian Contributions to Anthropology, number 19, 598 pages, 5 figures, 5 foldout maps, 6 tables, 1975.? This dictionary of Tzotzil (Mayan) vocabulary from the town of Zinacantan, Chiapas, Mexico, was compiled by the author over a period of fourteen years. In addition to unsystematic data gathering in Zinacantan, formal interviews were conducted in San Cristobal. Two Zinacantec men accompanied the author to the United States on two occasions for further interviewing. All hypothetically possible CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) roots were tested to discover their existence and to determine their productivity. In addition to verbal suggestions, props were helpful: objects in everyday use, dolls, sound-effect records, play-acting. Special attention was directed to ethnobotanical lexicon and data; over 3000 specimens were collected and identified both by their Tzotzil name and by their scientific name. With the aid of aerial photographs and ground surveys the township and adjoining areas were mapped. Over one thousand place names were located. A system was developed to present considerable ethnographic context for the vocabulary within each root as succinctly as possible. Wherever possible, the etymology of loan words is indicated. Each entry is furnished with grammatical analysis. The approximately 30,000 Tzotzil entries and 15,000 English entries (including scientific names) were placed on magnetic tape to permit offset printing and further scholarly investigation. The body of the text is preceded by an introduction that records the eliciting techniques, organization of material, assessment and justification of the author's ethnographic approach, together with a sample of Tzotzil oral literature. Explanatory notes provide a more technical description of the contents and organizations of the dictionary as well as observations on Tzotzil grammar. OFFICIAL PUBLICATION DATE is handsiamped in a limited number of initial copies and is recorded in the Institution's annual report, Smithsonian Year. SI PRESS NUMBER 4987.

Durante mi peregrinacion por San Cristobal de las Casas siempre conte con los valiosos consejos y aiin con el socorro providencial del personal del Institute Nacional Indigenista. En particular quiero agradecer al Prof. Alfonso Villa Rojas, y a los Drs. Gonzalo Aguirre Beltran y Armando Aguirre. Mi primer trabajo de campo data del ario 1957. Acompane entonces a este ultimo antropologo a la mazateca. Ingenuo respecto a las teorias de las sciencias humanas, en esa ocasion D. Armando me inicio en los misterios de la endogamia y de los patrones socio-culturales dirigiendome asi rumbo a la antropologia humanista. Tambien por su amable ayuda, mi agradecimiento a D. Manuel Castellanos Cancino, entonces Director del Departamento de Asuntos Indigenas; al desaparecido D. Belisario Lievano, Secretario Municipal de Zinacantan; y al parroco D. Juan Bermudez. Cuando los problemas legales o administrativos me embrollaban o cuando ignore detalles claves de las costumbres y tradiciones coletas, recurri a D. Leopoldo Velasco Robles y al Lie. Angel Robles. Ellos en un ambiente hospitalario y amistoso me ofrecieron consejos sensatos mientras procuraban distraer mis preocupaciones con relatos picarescos de la provincia. De igual manera, no puedo menos que agradecer al Prof. Jose Weber por sus eruditas explicaciones sobre la geografia y otros aspectos de la region; al Dr. Ovidio Rodriguez quien con su sensibilidad y tratamientos, barria con los temores y los dolores del trabajo de campo; a Dona Uvenza Hernandez por su devocion hecha sabor en la riqueza de sus comidas. A estas personas y a otros inumerables nativos de la bella Ciudad Real, mi mas sincero agradecimiento. En los estudios etnobotanicos conte con la ayuda de Juan Manuel Cardenas, alumno de la Universidad Veracruzana quien, durante 1966, condujo a los recolectores por brechas escabrosas y vados fangosos siempre con buen humor; me asistio en la preparacion de las muestras, saco y anoto los datos etnobotanicos; con cierta facilidad aprendio el vocabulario tzotzil apropriado, enriqueciendo asi con su labor, esta rama del diccionario. VI SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 Le agradezco tambien al Ing. Efraim Hernandez Xolocotzi por su identificacion de una gran variedad de frijoles. A mi paso por Chiapas siempre encontre posada y hospitalidad en la casa de Dona Concepcion Bermejillo de Cuevas (q.e.p.d.), mujer de facil platica, cuya experiencia, que trataba de transmitirme con vivacidad y a traves de cuentos preiiados de enseiianzas, no siempre me parecio el que debia seguir. Estoy en deuda con la Seriorita Evangelina Ramirez M. por su fe, que como un manojo de recuerdos me ha acompanado a la manera de "ocote" en las horas de oscuridad. In San Cristobal, the late Frans Blom and his widow, Gertrude "Trudi" Duby, have provided weary travelers with a mythical haven where gourmets become gourmands and where tales of exploration and human endeavor are spun out before a blazing hearth. Their hospitality, extended by Patricia Area and Laura Hastings, has handed us a folio of memories. In Trudi's garden, stalked by tiger lilies, swirling with hummingbirds, under the gaze of a blue-bellied lizard these words of thanks are written. Vivid hours were spent with Marcey Jacobson and Janet Marren, whose encour- agement and keen understanding of Chiapas realities contributed surreptitiously to this dictionary. In the midst of our society, where the quest for knowledge is so often confused by the demands for careers, Professor Evon Z. Vogt has created, together with his wife, Catherine (Nan) Vogt, a human community of Tzotzil scholars that seems many times to be riding on a magic carpet above all the divisions of race, age, sex, nationality, economics, even temperament. As a now almost prehistoric member of this curious community, I have been a witness and partaker of its perpetual vitality and growth. It seems crass to speak of the financial benefits that Vogtie's generosity has extended to the support of this dictionary under the National Institute of Mental Health Grant MH-02100, but these benefits have been of critical importance. Vogtie's open hand with every resource of the Chiapas Project, from aerial photos to jeeps, to publications, to student assistance, to an open door that always welcomes renewed acquaintance provides a security and a sense of perma- nence very rare in academia. But most important of all, the excitement of discovery and the irrepressi- ble fellowship that inspires this community, quickening the search for knowledge so that it is not a drag, but a Salty Dog Rag?for that I am uncommonly lucky and thankful. Through the years, Nicholas and Lore Colby, Frank and Francesca Cancian, George and Jane Collier, Francesco and Philippa Pellizzi, John and Leslie Haviland, Carter Wilson, and Victoria Bricker have contributed so to my understanding and appreciation of Tzotzil language and culture that this dictionary is in great part theirs. Out of the host of Chiapas Project companions, I will list those whom I know have influenced my thinking or advanced the completion of my task. Such a cold inventory, doubtless incomplete, of friends cannot hint at their contribution: Nicholas Acheson, Nicholas Bunnin, John Early, Susan Tax Freeman, Gary and Eleanor Gossen, Carol Greenhouse, Priscilla Rachin Linn, Richard and Sally Price, Eric Prokosch, Renato and Michelle Zimbalist Rosaldo, Richard Schweder, James Warfield. Eric and Susan Vogt aided me in transforming illegible manuscript into readable typescript for further polishing. My thanks to Frances Mendez and Vera Breedlove who devoted many hours of typing during the initial stages of my ethnobotanic lexigraph. In searching for first causes of my exploration in word and meaning, in language and culture, the trail leads straight back to Paul Friedrich's first graduate course at Harvard. With infectious enthusiasm and meticulous scholarship, he assaulted my ears with undreamt of sounds and concepts. He encouraged me to immerse myself in language at the Summer Institute of Linguistics at Ann Arbor, and in later years, whenever self-doubt and weariness urged me to abandon my adventure, he knew how to stiffen my resolve. Past curses are now willed into today's praises. In 1959, when Tzotzil was just gibberish to me, Lore Colby pioneered valiantly in carving out a reliable lexicon and in revealing the grammatic framework. Without such a generous and accom- plished predecessor, I doubt if I would have dared venture further into Tzotzil lexicography. Since the inception of this dictionary, I have leaned as heavily as I could on Terrence Kaufman for linguistic direction. Together we devised and applied a system for root classification and for the grammatic analysis of entries. His unequaled knowledge of the full spectrum of Mayan languages provided a perspective and degree of authority that lifted me from the paralysis of indecision. For ACKNOWLEDGMENTS VII hours he scrutinized my Tzotzil monosyllables, sustained only by spoonsful of Bulgarian yogurt. My stubborn refusal to follow his advice on repeated occasions released him from all responsibility for errors, but, I hope, will not diminish the credit to which he is due. Brent Berlin, Nicholas Hopkins, and Harvey Sarles gave freely of their own materials and, over the years, when my spirits lagged, urged me forcefully to keep my hand on the plow. To this company of advisors and advocates also belong Robert Adams, the late Chalao Chaiyaratana, Harold Conklin, Munro Edmonson, John Hotchkiss, Floyd Lounsbury, Norman McQuown, Duane Metzger, John Murra, and Sol Tax. Without the expertise and concerted cooperation of Peter Raven and Dennis Breedlove my efforts to identify Tzotzil plant names would have been an attempt at getting figs from thistles. Only a fanatic could have ignored the passing of years, poring over another's material so unstintingly as has Dennis Breedlove. I can only hope that the trips these hours of tedium have inspired have been good ones! The following scholars gave generously of their time to provide determinations of the more than 3,000 botanical specimens: W. R. Anderson, R. Barneby, D. Bates, D. E. Breedlove, L. Constance, A. Denham, C. Epling, F. Ehrendorfer, P. D. Fryxell, H. S. Gentry, F. W. Gould, S. Graham, P. C. Hutchinson, H. Iltis, H. S. Irwin, C. Jeffrey, T. Koyama, C. L. Lundell, P. C. Mangelsdorf, E. McClintock, R. McVaugh, F. Meyer, H. N. Moldenke, H. E. Moore, the late C. V. Morton, H. Piers (fungi), P. H. Raven, H. Robinson, R. Rollins, V. Rudd, J. Rzedowski, J. Sauer, B. Schubert, L. Shinners, L. B. Smith, J. A. Steyermark, D. Wasshausen, U. T. Waterfall, G. Webster, L. O. Williams, and J. J. Wurdack. Dr. Velva Rudd was a ready target for my unending leguminous queries. Her knowledge and enthusiasm contributed significantly to this dictionary. I was exceedingly fortunate to lure Alexander F. Skutch from his Costa Rican finca for several weeks to aid me in the identification of Tzotzil bird names. He could provide a measure of certitude, which would otherwise have been but a forlorn hope. Dr. Ronald H. Pine aided me in the identification of various mammals, especially rodents, and Dr. J. F. Copp gave brave guesses on the basis of my collaborators' descriptions of snakes. During the years when I was sifting and sorting my heaps of knowledge, I was aided by a selfless team of sanitary engineers who held their noses and plunged their hands deep into the rich hoard. Sometimes despairing and sometimes rejoicing, sometimes chuckling, we sorted and sifted, sifted and sorted as if oblivious of the rise and fall of civilizations. To these fellow toilers who turned the foul to fair, perfuming the official air, my heartfelt thanks?Sophia Lotowycz Stoller, Eleanor (Randy) Thompson Russin, Karin Abbey, Wendy Frosh, Susan Bliss, also Shiela Berman, Rosalind Bresne- han, Martha Burgess, Barbara Kane, and Marsha Sprintz. Capitulating to John Haviland's persuasiveness, I transferred my material from paper slips to computer tape. My worst misgivings were confirmed and compounded, but without computerization this dictionary would never have emerged from file boxes to appear on a printed page. The discovery of important omissions also was made possible by John Haviland's infernal machine. Stanwyn Shetler, at no little inconvenience to himself, kindly arranged that I share the use of a computer terminal and the special skills of the terminal operator, Mary Jane Petrini. Miss Petrini, despite her misgivings, soon prepared clean copy with unusual speed and dedication. With a keen eye and firm hand, Eric Vogt charted the course of this vessel through many storms. That it should nearly break up after his departure for the Gulf of Tonkin was no fault of his own. Having programmed and produced, together with John Haviland and Victoria Bricker, a computer- ized field dictionary of Tzotzil abstracted from my material, he never shared my doubts of the mission's ultimate success. No glory won, but I hope satisfaction that he did in fact know best. For several years Arthur Fink put Eric Vogt's program into action, refining it and perfecting it, forcing it to comprehend the stubborn idiosyncracies of my language. He devised a method to speed the editing or correcting process, and he marshaled the keypunchers for the accomplishment of this thankless task. But eventually even this dictionary became a victim of the Viet Nam war as Arthur's priorities shifted to a campaign to stop the criminal destruction of life. He initiated his replacement, David Grabel, into the mysteries of the "true word"?mysteries that David quickly absorbed and mastered only to find that light was followed by dark, that questions followed answers, that logical solutions produced seemingly illogical results, that no decision was final. But from this vortex of confusion he emerged with the dictionary intact and, I trust, with new knowledge and strength. VIII SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 When engaged in mortal combat with the pitiless computer I took refuge in the demesnes of Timothy Rush, Carter Wilson, and Francesco and Philippa Pellizzi. They dressed my wounds and freshened my body and soul so that I could reenter the fray undaunted. To them should go the trophies. The roster of keypunchers (many unknown to me), who have struggled over and cursed the exotic words of this dictionary includes Claire Bachelder, Connie Dionne, Arthur Fink, Marcia Fishman, Eric Kauffman, Gigi MacMillan, Cheryl McFadden, Sarah Markel, Keith Ohmart, Mona Opatow, Carolyn Pope, Douglas Seay, Ann Shum, Jane Szurek, Eric and Susan Vogt. I would like to make special mention of Eric Kauffman who, assailed by the devils of this century, still gave of himself phenomenally, so that the Tzotzil floral could be included here. To Neil Rudenstine I owe my introduction to Dr. Samuel Johnson, whose spiritual fellowship has ever been a great solace and encouragement. Robert Greene knows why he too belongs here. The late Howard Cline, director of the Hispanic Foundation, United States Library of Congress, offered invaluable advice when we were planning the preparation of the dictionary for offset printing. Since even before the tragic demise of the Bureau of American Ethnology, William Sturtevant has been for me a bulwark of faith and an arsenal of ideas. His insistence that this seemingly endless compilation of words in an obscure language was a worthwhile endeavor is largely responsible for its absurd dimensions. As a fellow comrade in arms, he never begrudged my repeated interruptions when I would burst in with the demand, "Give me a word! " ?a label for an outlandish grimace, for the sound of a marimba, for the basal scar of a bean. Seldom was he at a loss for words. When grappling desperately with linguistic problems that slipped, like piglets, out of my grasp, I could always count on Paul Voorhis to restore my equanimity with firm, well-reasoned solutions. He, as well as Henry Collins, Gordon Gibson, Sam Stanley, William Trousdale, Irving Zaretsky, Ives Goddard, and Peter Stone kept the faith and supplied the word. Over the years the Smithsonian has provided me the secretarial assistance of Jessie Standish Shaw, Anne Mason Lewis, and Rosemary Macchiavelli De Rosa. Only a bureaucracy would try to reduce these individuals to "clerk-typists." Rising above the mindless hassles, refusing to accept a former museum director's assessment of this dictionary as a mere "catalog," they energetically and resourcefully advanced the progress of my work. The term "midwifery" is far too archaic and unromantic to describe their occupation, but without their attentions surely I would have witnessed a stillbirth. Eleanor Haley and Susan Brown kept the lines of communication open between me and my distant programmers. The abstraction of the nonbotanical material which forms the base of the English to Tzotzil index, and its preparation for computer processing, was a task that fell upon Sandra Wilcox, my research assistant, and Penelope Packard of the Smithsonian Information Systems Division. What was promised to be a relatively simple, speedy, automatic process, was contrariwise. When hopefulness seemed but insanity, they persevered unabashed, not only devising solutions, but carefully laying the groundwork for offset printing. My indebtedness to them is self-evident, but gives no hint of the good feelings and good times that they not only salvaged, but celebrated in my company. I am thankful to Reginald A. Crcighton, Jr., Manager of Information Storage and Indexing of the Information Systems Division, for accepting the challenge of this dictionary and giving so generously of Penny Packard's time. Edward G. Schumacher and Marcia P. Bakry, scientific illustrators of the Department of Anthropology, shared the laborious task of inking the figures and maps. Albert L. Ruffin, Jr., managing editor of the series publications of the Smithsonian Institution Press, has been most sympathetic to the curious tribulations of this lexicographer and has sped this dictionary toward its completion. Charles L. Shaffer and Stephen J. Kraft of the Smithsonian Institution Press provided valuable advice in preparation for offset printing. The continued interest and support of Dr. Sydney R. Galler, former assistant secretary for science of the Smithsonian Institution, was a source of great encouragement. This dictionary was largely funded by Smithsonian Fluid Research Fund grant 26-A, and Smithsonian Research Foundation grants 3311, 3364, and 3619. Had it not been for the providential involvement of Secretary S. Dillon Ripley, who, listening to my pleas and refusing to share the indifference of certain administrators and scholars to my endeavors, directed that an emergency grant (1B00) be provided to ensure completion of my project. Except that it must seem self-seeking, I would be pleased to dedicate this dictionary to the secretary ACKNOWLEDGMENTS IX of the Smithsonian Institution in the spirit of my fellow lexicographer, G. C. Praharaj, who inscribed his monumental work to the Maharaja of Mayurbanjh! My parents, Ledlie I. Laughlin and Roberta H. Laughlin, as well as my parents-in-law, Reese Wolfe and Dorothee S. Wolfe, have borne much of the brunt and very little of the pleasure of this long drawn out affair. I look forward to the day when I see their love and mine reflected in a glass of champagne. What words can I offer to my wife, Miriam W. Laughlin, who thought she had wed a poet and woke to find a lexicographer? This dictionary I can never forgive for the sacrifices it demanded of her. That Mimi could keep us all sane and healthy, well-fed and well-loved, raising our hearts and minds above a decade's temptations of despair is a tour de force of the first magnitude. Without her, never. And what words to my children? This tome, soon to collect dust on library shelves, can scarcely stand in meaningful tribute to the memory of my son, Robert M. Laughlin, Jr., a casual victim of its creation, but I know he, too, if granted new life, would be amused to see that what once uplifted his bottom at the breakfast table now is food for scholars. To Liana De Wolf Laughlin and Reese Turnor Laughlin who learned to read their father's face, who heard him rage and snap and seldom laugh, I can only say, "Thank God, it's over, let's run out and play!" And maybe tomorrow The Great Tzotzil Dictionary will help them and a few others trade outrageous jokes in the lively language of the "people of the bat"! 17 July 1973 Contents Page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS v EPIGRAPH .xiv INTRODUCTION 1 History of the Language and the Literature 1 Author's Qualifications 3 Collaborators 3 First Stage?Compilation 4 Second Stage?Organization and Assessment 6 Third Stage?Presentation 12 Justification 14 The Genius of the Language 17 Conclusion 21 EXPLANATORY NOTES 22 Introductory 22 Phonemics and Phonetics 22 Root Classification , 23 Etymology 24 Transcription 24 Nouns 24 Numeral Classifiers 25 Particles 25 Affixes 25 Compounds 27 Order of Entries 27 Nonphonemic Symbols 27 Capitalization 27 Variants 27 Noun Phrases 27 Speech Categories 28 Taxonomic Entries 28 Color Terms 29 Architectural Terms 29 Sound Effects 29 Place Names 29 Cross-References 30 Ethnographic Notes 30 Declensions and Conjugations 30 KEY TO ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS 32 TZOTZIL-ENGLISH 35 ENGLISH-TZOTZIL 391 SCIENTIFIC NAMES 539 ATLAS 571 MAPS 581 APPENDIX 587 REFERENCES 589 EPILOGUE 598 XI SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 Page TABLES 1.

Grijalva River basin The Great Tzotzil Dictionary of San Lorenzo Zinacantan EPIGRAPH It is the fate of those, who toil at the lower employments of life, to be rather driven by the fear of evil, than attracted by the prospect of good; to be exposed to censure, without hope of praise; to be disgraced by miscarriage, or punished for neglect, where success would have been without applause, and diligence without reward. Among these unhappy mortals is the writer of dictionaries; whom mankind have consid- ered, not as the pupil but the slave of science, the pioneer of literature, doomed only to remove rubbish and clear obstructions from the paths, through which Learning and Genius press forward to conquest and glory, without bestowing a smile on the humble drudge that facilitates their progress. Every other author may aspire to praise; the lexicographer can only hope to escape reproach, and even this negative recompense has been yet granted to very few. Samuel Johnson we have made the dictionary a list of irregularities, the refuse of grammatical description Harold Gleason Ragpicker: "Countess, there was a time when garbage was a pleasure. A garbage can was not what it is now. If it smelled a little strange, it was because it was a little confused ?there was everything there?sardines, cologne, iodine, roses. An amateur might jump to a wrong conclusion. But to a professional?it was the smell of God's plenty." Jean Giraudoux The block containing the needed data was missing from the dump; a possible cause is that the routine that produced the dump encountered an I/O error while attempting to write the block. IBM . an occasional fish head and liberty is all i ask freedom and the garbage can romance archy romance is the word don marquis I showed to Dr. Johnson verses in a Magazine, on his Dictionary, composed of uncommon words taken from it; Little of Anthropopathy has he, etc. He read a few of them, and said, "I am not answerable for all the words in my Dictionary." James Boswell "You may call it 'nonsense' if you like," said [the Red Queen], "but I've heard nonsense, compared with which that would be as sensible as a dictionary!" Lewis Carroll I wouldn't want to have to swear on a dictionary! Martha Mitchell There is no solution, because there is no problem. Marcel Du Champs Introduction The words of this dictionary, as opposed to others, are more diligently collected, more accurately spelled, more faithfully ex- plained, and more authentically ascertained. Of an abstract it is not necessary to say more; and I hope it will not be found that truth requires me to say less (Johnson, 1797:4). By so boldly imprinting the stamp of Dr. Johnson on The Great Tzotzil Dictionary of San Lorenzo Zinacantan, I risk the fate of one Jonathon Fairbanks of Sherborn: convicted of notorious cousinage by cheating in casting off pewter pieces with a stamp or impression upon them for good silver. Sentanse, to stand one hour in the pillory immediately after the next lecture in Boston, with a paper of his crime fastened to the pillory (quoted in L. Laughlin, 1971, 3:33). No piece of Jonathon Fairbank's handiwork is known to- day. If he is indeed my example, my future rests assured. A certain rash assurance must be the hallmark of a lexicog- rapher?I have just discovered a letter to my secretary, re- porting my progress: An extensive dictionary of the Mayan language, Tzotzil, spoken today by 78,000 Indians of the state of Chiapas. . . has not been compiled since the eighteenth century. In 1960 a vocabulary of 2200 items of the dialect of Zinacantan was collected by Lore M. Colby. I have expanded this vocabulary to 4000 items. It is hoped that this material will be ready for publication in a year's time. My letter was dated "July 2, 1963." In the passage of a decade the Tzotzil population has grown with fearful exuberance, as has the compilation of their words. The Tzotzil or "people of the bat" now number upwards of 120,000 corn-farming peasants living in 24 communities in the heart of Chiapas, the southernmost state of Mexico. These hardy mountaineers, so jealous of their ancient tradi- tions yet so quick to incorporate modern technology, have become the target of intensive government and anthropologi- cal programs. At the time of the Spanish Conquest the Tzotzil (known variously as Quelen, Queren, Sotsil, Sotslem, Sotzil, Ts'ots'il, Tzotzlem, Zotzil, Zozil) controlled the Chiapas highlands. The principal town, Zinacantan, was in perpetual warfare with the lowland Chiapanecs who threatened to disrupt the Zinacantecs' monopoly of the salt trade. A network of trade relations was maintained by the Zinacantecs between Guate- mala, Tabasco, and the Aztecs to the north. Reports that the Aztecs maintained a garrison in Zinacantan in the fifteenth century are suspect, conflicting with Sahagun's account of Robert M. Laughlin, Associate Curator, Department of Anthropology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560. Aztec merchants who were so eager for amber and precious feathers that they penetrated the highlands at the risk of their lives and only after mastering Tzotzil and traveling disguised in Zinacantec clothing. In 1523 the army of Bernal Diaz del Castillo gained easy access to the highlands after conquering the Chiapanecs. Aided by Zinacantec warriors, Diaz stormed the fortifica- tions of Chamula and Huistan. Spanish rule was entrusted to a handful of soldiers who, when they soon met opposition from the natives, fled to Comitan. Their entreaties were an- swered in 1528 by the expeditionary force of Diego de Maza- riegos, who established the town of San Cristobal de las Casas (then known as Ciudad Real), which ever since has been the political and commercial center of Ladino (non-Indian) su- premacy in the highlands. In 1545 Dominican friars built their first monastery in the Chiapas highlands in Zinacantan. It was both a center of missionary activity and a refuge from the vituperative and scornful attacks of the conquistadors. The friars' courageous criticism of Spanish abuses were forcefully carried to the king by Bishop Las Casas. The chiefs of Zinacantan, too, sent pleas directly to King Philip II, who was moved by their eloquence to lower the tributes throughout Mexico and Cen- tral America. But from the Conquest to the Revolution and even decades beyond, "history" was for the Tzotzil what they defined in a sixteenth century dictionary as "the book of suffering, the book of hardship" ? famines and epidemics, tributes and taxes, servitude and destitution (Dicaonano en lengua sotzil, p. 190). Twice, in 1712 and again in 1869-70, segments of the native population of Chiapas rebelled in dramatic religious violence against Ladino exploitation and acculturation. Today, despite the most enlightened efforts of government authorities to provide a viable base for the na- tives of the highlands, and despite the Tzotzils' new confi- dence and ability to adapt political and anthropoligical in- terest to their own advantage, the explosive population growth presents a specter of dread that gives credence to Tzotzil beliefs of cosmic destruction in the year 2000. This dictionary has been a minute piece in the mammoth puzzle of Tzotzil hopes and fears through the past decade. HISTORY OF THE LANGUAGE AND THE LITERATURE Recent linguistic analysis and comparison of the 30 May- an languages spoken today, traces the roots of the Tzotzil tentatively to the heartland of northwestern Guatemala where proto-Mayan began to diversify around 2200 B.C., when Europe was barely entering the Bronze Age, and while SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 the pharoahs of the Old Kingdom were building the last of the great pyramids. Roughly 500 years later, the bearers of the language that became Huastec moved north up the east- ern coast of Mexico. A second Mayan exodus from Guate- mala followed three centuries later as the Yucatecs spread into the peninsula of Yucatan while another group, now represented by Quichean and Mamean speakers, moved into eastern and central Guatemala. From 1000 to 500 B.C., per- haps even while Homer was telling of the fall of Troy, some of the Western Mayans, i.e., Cholans and perhaps the Tzot- zilans, penetrated the jungles of Chiapas. Around 100 B.C., during Julius Caesar's lifetime, the Tzotzilans split off from the Chols and pushed into the pine and oak forested moun- tains of Chiapas. Around 700 A.D., at the height of Classic Mayan florescence, while the Arabs were conquering Spain, and Pepin was preparing the throne for Charlemagne, the Chiapas highlanders were splitting into two language groups, the Tzotzils and Tzeltals, who to this day share their moun- tainous terrain. Because of archaic features in Tzotzil verb inflexion, it appears that this westernmost penetration of Mayan speakers became a relic area with few innovations from the east (Kaufman, 1969). When the linguistic evidence can be associated more closely with archeological discoveries, this sketch will surely have confirmed G.B. Shaw's definition of history as "the tricks we play on dead men," but until that time it will have to suffice. Among the Mayan languages, Tzotzil, with over 120,000 speakers, ranks sixth in importance. Of the native languages of Mexico, Tzotzil has the seventh highest number of speak- ers, and of Mayan languages in Mexico is second only to Yucatec. Tzotzil is spoken in 19 townships, which can be mapped into five dialect areas distinguished by phonological and lexi- cal differences. The northwestern area includes Huituipan, Simojovel, Chalchihuitan and Pantelho. The northeastern area includes Larrainzar, Soyalo, Bochil, Jitotol, El Bosque, and Pueblo Nuevo. The eastern area is restricted to Ixtapa. Zinacantan shares the central area with Chamula, Chenalho, and Mitontic. The southern area includes Huistan, Teopisca, El Zapotal, Totolapa, and Venustiano Carranza. This dictionary records the dialect spoken by over 10,000 Zinacantecs, and most especially by the men who live in the ceremonial center of Htek-lum. Despite concerted ef- forts to educate Zinacantecs in the Mexican school system, perhaps half of the men and an overwhelming majority of the women are essentially monolingual. No pre-Columbian document in Tzotzil has been discov- ered, nor is there any evidence that Tzotzil was a written language before the Conquest. Antonio de Remesal, who journeyed from Guatemala City to Zinacantan in 1616 in search of a copy of a letter sent by the Zinacantecs to King Philip II, convened a meeting of the townspeople. He gained no clues, but as the meeting broke up, an old man appeared with an ancient book written in Tzotzil that described the Conquest and the cruelties the Zinacantecs had suffered un- der Spanish rule. Perhaps this history met the strange fate of many of the indigenous documents collected by Bishop Or- ozco y Jimenez in San Cristobal. In 1915 Carranza's troops stabled their horses in the bishop's library, and those rave- nous creatures were seen munching the parchments. The bishop's inventory of his library did not include a Tzotzil history, but if it still exists its whereabouts are a mystery. Not until I had put an end to my own compilation of Tzotzil words did I discover the earliest Tzotzil dictionary, Diccionario en lengua sotzil, sometimes known as the Diccionario grande. This work was copied under the direction of Bishop Orozco y Jimenez and the copy fortunately dispatched from San Cristobal shortly before the arrival of revolutionary cav- alry. Eventually and ironically, it reached my hometown, where it is carefully preserved in the rare book room of the Princeton University Library. This sixteenth century dic- tionary by an anonymous lexicographer is truly a "great dictionary" of over 350 pages of Spanish-Tzotzil. One entry hints that it was compiled in Zinacantan, but the phonetics point to a more northerly dialect. Had my patience not been exhausted, this dictionary would have greatly expanded my knowledge. Even by a cursory examination, I discovered that an archaic word now used only in formal speech to indicate "pauper" was once the word for "slave." Hopefully, this colonial midden will be sifted by future scholars. Also from the sixteenth century was Francisco de Zepeda's Artes de los idiomas chiapaneco, zoque, tzendaly chinanteco [sic], but this study has disappeared. A second major work still extant is the Arte de la lengua tzotzlem o tzinacanteca compiled by Juan de Rodaz in 1688. It consists of a thorough grammar and a description of the calendar. In 1732 Dionycio Pereyra added to this material a list of kin terms, body parts, and conversa- tional examples. In the eighteenth century, Manuel Hidalgo wrote a gram- mar, a Spanish-Tzotzil vocabulary, a collection of sermons, prayers, and catechisms whose original disappeared. Never- theless, the subsequent publications of two anonymous au- thors (Gramatica del tzotzil, 1818, and Ltbro en que se trata de la lengua tzotzil, 1832), and of Count Hyacinthe de Charencey (1866, 1885, 1899, 1912) apparently are based on Hidalgo's work. This material seems to derive from the town of Chamu- la. Perhaps the most remarkable Tzotzil document, whose very existence is owed to the faithful copyists of Bishop Or- ozco y Jimenez, is the Proclama del duque infantado presidente. In eloquent couplets, the Tzotzil are exhorted to remain faithful to the King of Spain and to spurn the advances of the "whirl- wind," the "horned serpent," the "jaguar," Napoleon! A small number of grammatical lapses suggest that the author was not a native speaker of Tzotzil, but rather a Spanish churchman. To this proclamation is appended explanatory notes of great sensitivity, as relevant to modern Tzotzil as to its colonial ancestor. Entirely different is the tone of the proclamation of 1869 addressed to the rebellious Tzotzil towns. Also composed by a churchman in oratorical style, its harshness is unrelieved by any eloquence (Lazos and Solorsano, 1869). Tzotzil publications of the twentieth century reflect cur- rent pressures from the outside?primers of the Institute Na- INTRODUCTION cional Indigenista; vocabularies, grammatical studies, and translations of the New Testament by members of the Sum- mer Institute of Linguistics; anthropological and linguistic studies primarily by members of North American, European, and Mexican academia. AUTHOR'S QUALIFICATIONS Before tracing the life history of the dictionary, it may offer some perspective to present what the Indian lexicographer Rai Bahadur G. C. Praharaj chose to title in the preface to his monumental Oriya lexicon: "Humble claim of the pre- sent compiler to undertake the work" (Praharaj, 1937:8). At the age of 18, after a summer's study at the Smithsonian Institution's Canal Zone Biological Area on Barro Colorado Island, my literary career was confirmed with "A Nesting of the Double-toothed Kite in Panama," (R. Laughlin, 1952). My interests in ornithology and English literature were hap- pily combined in my undergraduate thesis, To Chase With Fire: A Study of W. H. Hudson which enabled me to receive a Bachelor of Arts degree cum laude from Princeton Univer- sity in 1956. Hudson's dramatic depiction of the conflicts between "civilized" and "primitive" man had guided me to Homo ludens on the periphery of anthropology, a discipline which was itself considered peripheral to a sound Princeton education. Following graduation, I enrolled in the University of Mexico summer school where I took an introductory course in Mexican folklore, and Nahuatl. Despite the frustra- tions of a semester at the Escuela Nacional de Antropologia e Historia, my commitment to anthropology was assured by the inspiration of Miguel Covarrubias. A two-month field session among the Mazatecs of the Papaloapan basin, who were shortly to be evicted from their ancestral lands, intro- duced me to the tragic confrontations that seemed then so far from home. After aborting a draft call, I entered Harvard University in the fall of 1957 where I received my Masters of Arts degree in 1959. A course in language and culture was supplemented by a summer at the University of Michigan where I studied morphology and syntax, tone languages, and linguistic field methods. Because of my previous experience in Mexico, it was perhaps inevitable that I should be chosen by Evon Vogt to become a member of his Chiapas Project in the third year of its existence. A preliminary glimpse of Zinacantan in 1958 was followed by a year of fieldwork in 1959-60. "Dumb as any stone," my eyes weeping from the smoke, I sat in Zinacantec huts recalling in misery Clyde Kluckhohn's injunction to commit to memory 75 words a day, as streams of unintelligible and unpronounceable sounds swirled around my feet. After seven months of expo- sure to "the boundless chaos of a living speech" (Johnson, 1797:8), and with frequent recourse to Lore Colby's diction- ary, I felt sufficient confidence to begin recording the folk- tales and myths that I hoped would reveal the wisdom of Zinacantec life. Though my expectations were not so easily satisfied, I returned to Harvard with reels of tape that could be unwound to produce Through the Looking Glass: Reflections on Zinacantan Courtship and Marriage, in partial fulfillment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy that was awarded to me in 1963. No sooner had I completed my dissertation and been em- ployed as an assistant curator in the Smithsonian Institution's Bureau of American Ethnology than I returned to Zinacantan, where I spent a year collecting dreams. Weighed down by my inadequacy to interpret those dreams, I hoisted a new burden on my shoulders. It was clear at that moment that my proficiency in Tzotzil was not matched by any of my colleagues. Who but I should bear the responsibili- ty of compiling an extensive dictionary for the project's use? Anyway, I had assembled already a vocabulary of 4,000 words which, in the course of conversations and narrations, had been subjected to translation. And so what had begun as a lighthearted search for myths and dreams, for fanciful creations, was suddenly transformed into a no-nonsense pur- suit of words and meanings. With a butterfly net, I stooped to chase after caterpillars. COLLABORATORS I asked Romin Teratol to be one of my two major collab- orators. Romin, then 29 years old, had been the second Zina- cantec I had come to know on my first glimpse of Zinacantan five years before. He had braved the uncertainties of public ostracism by taking me into his mother's house when anthro- pologists still seemed like pale apparitions from the under- world. Though the necessities of life forced us into an em- ployer-employee relationship with all its latent anxieties, we became the closest of friends. Our families remained in touch during births and deaths as we witnessed the early years of each other's married lives. Romin, an only child, whose mother had been divorced soon after marriage, had three years of schooling. He became a sacristan, accumulating a great store of ritual knowledge. Unsuccessful years of corn farming were followed by road- work and finally a position as agent of the Instituto Nacional Indigenista where he gained a perspective on the regional differences of the highland towns. Stimulated by his view of the outside world, he agreed to work for my predecessors in the Chiapas Project, Nick and Lore Colby. With the greatest sensitivity and tact he guided us all through thickets of lin- guistic and cultural perplexity, sharing our excitement in the solution of intellectual problems, and sharing our pleasure in the partial mastery of formal Zinacantec behavior. I could think of no one better equipped to protect me from poisonous caterpillars. Wishing to have a third party to sharpen our wits, after consulting with Romin, we chose ">Anselmo Peres. "JAnselmo, a strikingly handsome bachelor of 21 years, had made a lasting impression on me after I had witnessed him hauled into court on what might be termed "morals" charges. His self-defense before the magistrate and justices of the peace was so eloquent, and his self-assurance so manifest that he seemed a natural choice to join the word hunt. rAnselmo's father had died years ago, so he, too, lived with his mother, together with his younger brothers. His three years of school- SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 ing were followed by the usual corn farming and roadwork. His mental alertness was dramatically proven when, after little over a week of training by Romin, he learned to write Tzotzil almost flawlessly. Unbeknownst to us both, ?Anselmo had also just initiated his career as a shaman. For a month we worked together in San Cristobal tran- scribing and translating dream texts while I watched to see if my intuitions had been worthy of trust. Then, in Septem- ber 1963, I sprang my plot: "Would you be willing to travel with me to Santa Fe, New Mexico, to work for three months compiling a Tzotzil dictionary?" I had chosen Santa Fe for two reasons: To avail myself of the advice of Lore Colby, who was finishing her dissertation on Tzotzil grammar there; and because Santa Fe seemed the closest that the United States could come to replicating San Cristobal, providing a Span- ish-speaking environment that would not be too threatening to my collaborators. Their affirmative responses projected us into weeks of tense activities as we strove to secure blessings from relatives and documents from bureaucrats. FIRST STAGE?COMPILATION This is not the place to describe my collaborators' reactions to Mexico City, the anthropology meetings in San Francisco, the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Lee Harvey Oswald, the Zuni Shalako, snow, and supermarkets, though these were intrusive facts of life or exciting diversions as we plodded from la to k'. Six days a week, from 9:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M., we sat in the Museum of New Mexico inventing words. Capitalizing on the monosyllabic nature of most Mayan roots, we followed a method Norman McQuown's students had applied success- fully. That is, I would suggest a hypothetical root, 9a? to which I would add what I believed to be an appropriate affix to create what I hoped would be a Tzotzil word. Systemati- cally, I would substitute one affix after another, attaching them to the root. After I had exhausted all possibilities that I could think of, I would move to the next hypothetical root ^ab and carry out the identical procedure. The .advantages and disadvantages of such a mechanical approach to lan- guage are readily apparent. By testing every possible combi- nation of letters an extraordinarily broad coverage of the vocabulary can be obtained, a coverage that gives the lexicographer's whims no play. At the same time, the tedium takes an almost unbearable toll on the lexicographers' minds as they are battered for hours by sheer nonsense. "Is 'ab' a word?" "Abbing?" "Aborator?" "Abes?" "Aber?" And then miraculously, "Ably?" Even more taxing is the partial non- sense: "All mimsy were the borogoves and the mome raths outgrabe" (Carroll, 1962: 182). Torrents of words that col- lapse one's sanity, and yet sometimes provoke hilarity. So trying is this total immersion in words that defense mecha- nisms build up, permitting one to deny an authentic word and insist upon a fraud. More frequent is the urge to provide outrageous examples, to throw up preposterous obscenities that will bring to an uproarious halt the dehumanizing ad- vance of the word processor. In an attempt to convey as much context as possible, as compactly as I could, I asked for hypothetical referents for adjectives, and hypothetical subjects and objects for verbs. For example, "long (boy's hair)"; to "bristle /hair/ (dog)." While I could indulge my fancy by producing "mimsy" words, my collaborators could give full play to their whimsy by making "borogoves" their subjects, objects, and referents. When we reached the end of k' it was 1964. We had compiled 6000 entries, and nothing could have persuaded us to proceed a letter further. After giving our minds a healthy respite, I returned to Chiapas to tackle the second half of the alphabet. Almost daily a new suffix would come to light, increasing the harvest of the second three-month stretch to 10,000 entries. Fortified with a far more comprehensive knowledge of Tzotzil than I had possessed before, but dogged by the suspicion that bore- dom had had too fertile an impact on the word production of this dictionary, I resolved after a year's interlude to repeat the whole process. Intensive rechecking boosted the tally to roughly 25,000 entries. This mushrooming seemed quite end- less, for during the last week of interviewing, after seven years of labor, I discovered three suffixes which I had never heard before and which had to be tested against every transitive verb root! As for the validity, during the course of rechecking, my collaborators claimed that some 300 of the entries did not, in fact, exist. They, who had supplied me these words, complete with examples, categorically denied their existence and insisted that the examples were not even conceivable. Three months later I reintroduced all 300 non-words without explanation to my fellow lexicographers. Now they vowed that nearly a third were genuine words, and in case I doubted their judgment they provided me with examples, frequently the very ones I had, at their insistence, stricken out. They mocked me for my ignorance. Prominent among the words finally discarded were color terms that are formed by adding qualitative suffixes to the basic color term. George Collier had had a computer print- out the color terms with all possible combinations of the consonant-vowel-consonant suffix. A poor Zinacantec had gone through this list of thousands of hypothetical words, reducing it to 900. His mind had obviously been numbed by the experience, for my collaborators reduced the tally by still another hundred. Now that the Tzotzil base of the dictionary was fairly well established, I tried to refine my translations. I extracted an English-Tzotzil index and grouped apparently synonymous Tzotzil roots together. With, for example, a stack of ten Tzotzil roots that seemed to mean "split" I tried to tease out the distinctive range of each root. I checked my own transla- tions of numeral classifiers against Brent Berlin's rigorous translations of their Tzeltal cognates. In addition to verbal suggestions, props were helpful; objects in everyday use, dolls, sound-effect records, play acting. The sound-effect rec- ording provided surprises?what the Voice of America pre- sented as a simulation of rainfall was identified as sizzling corn gruel. Many voices talking was interpreted as a clatter- ing wheel. The gobbling of turkeys and frantic women's INTRODUCTION screams bursting through the door of my office in San Cristobal brought alarmed neighbors into the midst of our sober linguistic investigations. Dissatisfied with my own knowledge of Chiapas bird life, I was able to secure the aid of a foremost ornithologist, Alex- ander Skutch, who accompanied us into the woods and fields. We were able to make sight identifications of a significant portion of the bird population of the highlands. Some of the more elusive birds, such as owls, were identified tentatively, by voice recordings, but even here there were problems, for the hoot of an owl was solemnly identified as the voice of a turtle! In February 1966, the dictionary-making entered a new stage. Dennis Breedlove, the authority on Chiapas flora, of- fered his plant-drying equipment and his knowledge if I would make a collection of Zinacantec plants. Once again what began as a modest venture grew with tropical exu- berance. As a first step to arouse the interest of my colleagues in botanical collecting and to give me some idea of the scope of the Tzotzil botanical lexicon, I asked my fellow lexicogra- phers and two others, also from Zinacantan Center, to write separate lists of all the plant names they could recall. Com- bining the results of their one day's endeavor produced a master list of over 650 names! The multiplicity was surpris- ing, for Zinacantecs are far less dependent on uncultivated plants than the neighboring Tenejapanecs or even Chamu- las. In an effort to assure some control over the naming proce- dure, the original team of from two to four collectors was comprised of residents of the ceremonial center only. When- ever possible, they collected an original and three copies of all plants in fruit and flower from each of the three major habitats. The specimens were named separately by the col- lectors, numbered, and dried. A file of plant lore was devel- oped with the aid of the following questionnaire, which I asked my collectors to apply to every plant soon after a copy of it was secured. 1. What is it called? If it has another name, where do they use that name? k'usi sbi? mi toy yan sbi buy salbeik yec? 2. Have you heard stories about why it was named that? mi avatyoh lotil ti k'u yutun yec sbiinoh ti votne? 3. If you don't know its name, what is it like? mi mu sana1) li sbie k'usi I "skotolah scituk? 4. Is it a tree, a plant, a vine, a grass, or not any of these? mi tet mi e'itlel mi tak' mi hobel mi mu hatuk? 5. Is there a form -tik or -allik? (expanse or large expanse of) mi. .tik mi. .altik? 6. Where does it grow; in the highlands, temperate zone, or lowlands? buy s "c'l? mi la sikil tosil mi la vktik mi ta toion? 7. Where does it grow; in the yard, in the woods, in fields, etc.? buy s t'i? mi ta yut mok, mi ta tettik, mi ta stentehtik? 8. Is it cultivated? When? How? Who does it? mi e'unbil? k'u torn? k'u "stelan la e'unel? buc'u sifun? 9. What part of it is used? k'usi "stun fo? 10. Who uses it? buc'u stun yutun? 11. What is it used for? k'usi stun to? 12. Is it "cold" or "hot"? mi sik mi k'din? 13. What effect does it have? k'u I spas to? 14. How is it gathered? Who brings it? When? Is it bought or gathered? k'u stelan ta said? buc'u t sat tal? k'u tora? mi manbil mi satbil ta Uttik? 15. How many are used? hayib stun? 16. How is it prepared? k'u stelan ta mekanel? 17. Is it used alone or is there another ingredient. If so, what is it? mi stuk mi toy skap? k'usi h skape? 18. How is it taken? k'u stelan la tCc'el? 19. How much is drunk? After meals or not? k'u yepal I sue'? mi vetem sa Ids to mi mutyuk to ids? 20. When is it used? If it is medicine, how often is it taken? k'u fora ti t "stune? ti mi pose hay-tec'el sk'an la tic'ele? 21. Is it the preferred kind? If not, what is? mi hat mas lek stune? mi motohe k'usi ti mas lek "stun tune? 22. If it is poisonous, what remedy is there? mi pukuh k'usi sposil? At the end of five months, overweening pride goaded me to try to determine whether my team's essential agreement on plant names and uses was shared by members of the outlying hamlets. Together, we chose individuals whom we thought would be knowledgeable. Several were shamans. Obvious ignoramuses were speedily replaced. Before collect- ing, each initiate was asked to name all of the plants that he could. His knowledge was tested against the master list from Zinacantan Center to fill out his own list and to spot variant pronunciations. On a rotating basis the additional collectors, ideally one from each of the major hamlets, accompanied by one or two from the original team, collected through January 1967. They, too, were asked to identify the plants and to respond to the items in the questionnaire. Over 3000 num- bered specimens were obtained, of which several were species new to science. Excluded from the dictionary were Tzotzil names that seemed suspect or that had the qualifier, "yit'is," i.e., "false. . ."; or "bastard. .," e.g., "bastard evening primrose," and also had no known use. Even so, 1170 species are represented, as well as another 100 identifications at the generic level. Examples for nearly every one of the plant names on the master list were secured, so that the collection was comprehensive both from the botanical and lexical point of view. This dry account gives no hint of the pleasures of plant collecting; the mornings spent in crisp pine forests and along torrid lowland stream beds, the nights beneath giant fig trees, the dizzying verbal duels as we sorted and prepared the plants for drying. Nor does it hint at the problems; the collectors sunk deep in hangovers, the collectors who, rather than wrinkling their pants, would rely on me to bother climbing a tree to wrench down a spectacular orchid. Imag- ine a collecting party; myself, three veteran teammates from the Center, and three hamlet beginners. Everyone has been SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 instructed that I only want genuine names, and that unfa- miliarity with the plant should cause no concern. First, the beginners would be asked to name each plant. If they an- swered, "I don't know," four or five times, the veterans would begin exchanging superior winks. After the first 15 minutes of collecting, no plant was ever left unnamed. An enormous lexicon of several thousand names was created with extreme variations from one individual to the next. Some control was provided by having the members of the original team all from Zinacantan Center and by collecting in the same locali- ties many times throughout the year. The variations seldom could be explained by noting the origins of the collectors, nor was it a simple question of the ignorance or widsom of the collector, though this was a critical, but elusive factor. The impact of group dynamics upon the choice of plant names was terrible to behold. Of paramount importance was the social criteria of the collector within the team such as his age or bonds of friendship. Social position and temperament of- ten determined who would align with whom in assigning which names. Efforts to prevent collectors from influencing their colleagues' decisions frequently were unsuccessful. Even so, there was substantial agreement on culturally significant plants. Having completed a year of collecting in January 1967, I returned to the States. In my absence my two fellow lexicog- raphers began what proved to be an extraordinarily frustrat- ing chapter in our lives?the identification of place names. After walking the major trails of the township and visiting every hamlet?a venture sure to arouse the suspicions of their countrymen?Romin and 9Anselmo would return to San Cristobal to attempt to pinpoint on aerial photographs the places they had visited. Anyone familiar with the problems of distortion, shadows, blurs in aerial photographs of rugged mountainous terrain with elevations varying 5000 feet, in an area of over 50 square miles, will appreciate the enormity of the task. In the fall of 1967, Romin and *>Anselmo once again braved the northern climes so that we could transfer their work from one series of unacceptable photos to another that was slightly less distorted. My own jigsaw-puzzle approach in trying to piece together the series of photographs proved far less accurate than their mental retracing of their steps along mountain trails. In preparation for their arrival, I had conceived of two additional labors. Although the thrust of this dictionary is primarily from Tzotzil to English, lest I inadvertently ignore important English concepts, I examined semantic frequency lists which contained the 1000 concepts most frequently ex- pressed in English, German, French, and Spanish (Eaton, 1940). I was able to match these cognates with Tzotzil equiv- alents in all but 210 instances. For these latter we derived Spanish sentences containing the key word, and asked Ro- min and 9Anselmo to translate them into Tzotzil. Their difficulties were a boost to my ego, validating my own intui- tions. Nevertheless, after gnawing away at these recalcitrant concepts we reduced their number to 50. Among the concepts for which we could conjure up no equivalent were "ques- tion," "plan," "family," "peace," "liberty," and "faith," though verbal forms of several of these were readily at hand. The second labor was the result of my inability to compre- hend the meanings of some 300 abstract expressions that with surprising frequency appeared in the context of disputes or court cases, and so appeared to be critical to an under- standing of the culture. I asked my fellow lexicographers to illustrate the range of their meaning by providing me with several sentences apiece for each troublesome word. The con- sensus was encouraging. The most illuminating of these ex- emplary sentences have found their way into the dictionary. The presence of my collaborators in our home in Alexan- dria, Virginia, added zest to our undertaking. It also added Tzotzil definitions for such foreign elements as chaise longues which were promptly dubbed in Tzotzil "foot-watchers." Identifications of elusive insects and larger animals were made after visits to museums and zoos. With the aid of a pointer, stars could be easily tracked in the Hayden Plane- tarium. And lest my colleagues become too bored, in our free time we made our pilgrimage to Mount Vernon, watched a Princeton-Cornell football game, collected conchs at Assa- teague, and marched on the Pentagon. Except for continued fussing with the maps, the addition by Romin of considerable animal folklore, and the culling of my field notes for ethno- graphic flavor, this ended the first collection stage of the making of this dictionary?four years, from November 1963 to November 1967, of relentless pursuit after what seemed now to be unquestionably noxious caterpillars. SECOND STAGE?ORGANIZATION AND ASSESSMENT It would be merciful to the reader who has followed me this far to characterize the second stage as the light at the end of the tunnel. It was not. Twenty-five thousand handwritten entries were typed up by a commercial secretarial firm. The typographical errors must have approximated the number of entries. The botanical information, written in three lan- guages, by various collaborators, formed a small mountain of lined paper pads, graph sheets, typed lists that had to be thoroughly threshed, sifted, and weighed. I had to decide which plant names were genuine and which spurious. As the botanical identifications came trickling in, the Latin names and the common English names had to be matched with all their Tzotzil equivalents. An endless shuffling of cards filled every day from dawn to dark. My invaluable assistants through these three years all fell victim to the card game. One walked around clutching a copy of Sartre's No Exit, referring insidiously to the dictionary as "mother." Another dreamt that she was the k'os 'lahateies card and that she was wandering through the plant file being incorrectly filed and ultimately lost. When she related her dream to me, I asked her if she knew what plant k'os fahate^es was. She didn't know and wasn't interested, but I pursued the matter into a card file she had never seen. When I informed her that her alter ego was wild blueberry she turned livid, exclaiming INTRODUCTION helplessly, "Blueberry, that's my nickname!" Our uneasiness was not stilled as we proceeded the rest of that afternoon to make a series of grammatical corrections only to find that every one had mysteriously been anticipated, including the final entry, "God"! As we slowly began to impose some order on the botanical material, I became obsessed with doubts about the value of my collection. I was well aware that a project which had brought together 3000 specimens, 22 informants not always sober, and countless thousands of names would demonstrate inconsistencies. So, for reassurance, I turned to the results of our mushroom picking?a mere 200 specimens, four inform- ants, and 100 names. I paired the Tzotzil generic names with their Latin generic determinations to produce the simplified chart (Figure 1). One wishes, of course, to have not merely generic but specific Latin identifications, but the mycologist protested that this was impossible as I had not provided him with a thorough comparative description of the specimens' flavors. I had, in fact, asked my wife, who loves raw mushrooms, to taste the specimens and record their flavors. I learned the limits of her loyalty. Figure 2 shows how even the mushroom specimens consid- ered edible by the Zinacantecs are linked by their Linnaean identifications in a complex way. For instance, eahal cikin is a mushroom of the genus Lactarius. Manayok belongs to Lactar- tus, but also to Cantharellus, Clitocybe, and Collybia. It also be- longs to Cortinarius, Mycena, and Tricholorna, but not to Lactar- ttts, Cantharellus or Clitocybe ! At least, after having implicitly trusted my informants and feasted on many a leftover mush- room I was relieved to learn that not a single deadly speci- men had found its way into this category. Mushrooms are of minor importance in the diet, but no plant is more central to Zinacantec culture than corn. Ev- eryone grows corn, everyone talks about corn, everyone de- pends upon corn for his survival. My collaborators from Zinacantan Center collected twenty ears of corn (^isim) which they claimed were different from each other and which they called by different names. When I was still in Chiapas I strung the ears up across the room and brought in five men, each from a different hamlet. I asked them to name the corn. They could handle the ears, chip off kernels, and so forth. If each informant had assigned a different name to each ear there would be 100 names. Here are the results.

FIGURE 1.?Mushroom or toadstool? INTRODUCTION For these 20 ears that Di. Paul Mangelsdorf assigns to 16 races there are 47 different Tzotzil names. Forty-one descrip- tive terms of such things as shape, color, habitat, season, and size are used to produce a majority of the distinctive names. Despite this extraordinary diversity, which might lead one to believe that these men were thoroughly confused by the array of corn?and they confessed bewilderment at the time?not lowland corn, while the mistakes in identifying temperate corn that grows in the foothills only confirmed its interme- diate quality. Escaping from my unlettered Tzotzil informants, I sought reassurance from a group of undergraduates and Smithsoni- an colleagues sharing a literate, bookish culture. I gave them a simple test. The instructions were to look at each of 15 flash a single one mistook an ear of highland corn for an ear of cards and write down what they called the thing.

But even Dr. Seuss would be hard put to invent a creature sharing the attributes of aphid, termite, and mos- quito (No. 12). Everyone knows the song about the boll weevil, "I'm looking for a home." Well, he'd find no home in this people's dictionary! Agreed that college students don't know their entomology. How about cars?

Look at those names and think of them as potential dictionary en- tries. Three out of five know that Ford is a Chevy (No. 1) and one knows that Chevy is a Cadillac (No. 6D). Look at the personal distinctions: "2-door hardtop" vs. "4-door hardtop" (informant E), "plum" vs. "brick red" (informant B). Look at the syntax: "White Chevy Station Wagon" (No. IB); "White station wagon, Rambler" (No. ID); "A station wag- on" (No. 9C). Rubbish! Remember we are searching for truthful identifications, that is, not deceptive ones. Consider the results above in the light of truth, truth as "conformity with fact, agreement with reality, agreement with the thing represented, the actual state of the case" (C. T. Onions [ed.], 1955:2258). Disappointed in the blatant ignorance of American youth represented above, my research assistant and I puzzled over what domain of knowledge was as rich in vocabulary and as important to American culture as corn to Zinacantec cul- ture. We chose breakfast foods. TABLE 4.? "Flapdoodle (food for fools) Test" (x = correct answer; = no answer) % . 0 In ) A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I.

INTRODUCTION 11 Dishes of cereal were offered for inspection and tasting first to white college students and then to black high school stu- dents. In the first test the subjects gained a total score of 36 percent correct, each informant correctly identifying from five out of the eight cereals to no cereals (unless one credits the informant who identified them all as "shit" as an appro- priate response). In the second test die number of correct answers rose to 53 percent, ranging also from five out of the eight cereals correctly identified to two cereals out of eight. Comparing the two results it appears that white college stu- dents are most familiar with Sugar Pops and Rice Chex while black high school students score best on Cornflakes and Froot Loops, each group scoring very low on the other's favorite breakfast food. One could deduce from the names ascribed that there is a negative corollary between knowledge and inventiveness. The more highly educated were more ignorant yet more inventive and facetious. Similarly there were many fewer students of the first category who left blanks on the answer sheet. One could deduce that the less educated are less compulsive, soberer, and more honest, or perhaps that blacks are less compulsive, soberer, and more honest than whites. The plethora of names is reminiscent of the Zinacantecs' labeling of corn. The eight kinds of actual cereal are dubbed with 53 names! As with the Zinacantecs, it is difficult to determine which names are authentic and which are merely descriptive. Regardless of race or level of education the num- ber of informants who were duped into believing that Tou- can Food was a kind of cereal is disturbing, though I must confess that I later learned that what the pet shop had repre- sented to me as special bird food was in fact dog food! The errors of substance are astonishing?Rice Chex are identified eight times as wheat, five times as rice, and twice as corn. Not only is there a failure to identify the substance properly, but even the form is misconstrued. How could Grape Nuts possi- bly be described as "flakes" (R7)? The levels of discrimina- tion, too, are thoroughly mixed; cereal, flakes, food, dirt, grain, germ, granules, protein, wheat. If majority is master than we can conclude safely that Cornflakes, Froot Loops, Sugar Pops and Frosty O's are correctly identified. But un- like the Tzotzil names for corn there is one and only one genuine name for the product contained in the box labeled "Apple Jacks" and that name is not "Frosty O's," "Frosti O's," or "Frosted O's" despite the claims of ten of the four- teen black informants. Majority rule does not assure the truth. As a last resort, I gave a greatly simplified test to ten college professors (anthropologists and linguists)?ten vege- tables were handed to them for identification. They scored 58 percent correct, the best informed individual identified nine out of ten, the dullard scored two and a half (with half points for partial identification). Demoralized by the apparent inability of most Americans to master the most mundane domains of common knowledge, I retreated and restaged one of my techniques that had proved most successful in the field for narrowing the range of meanings. I tossed a doll on the table and asked those present to describe it in one word. They replied, "lying," "crying," "flopped," "sprawled," "raggedy," "prone," "sleeping," "supine," and "dead." I wondered at the success of my efforts in Chiapas. I worried over experiences that were as common to English speakers as to Tzotzil speakers, but which stubbornly evaded labels. I tested the ingenuity of my colleagues by having a boy come in, put his finger in his cheek and pop it. O_: "What was that?" A: "Somebody just stepped in and made a popping noise." Q_: "What do you call it?" A: "There's no word for it." Quite opposite is the problem presented by those in the know. Take for instance hunters' names for ducks. The ruddy duck has nearly one hundred colloquial names including such diverse titles as blatherskite, booby, bumblebee-buzzer, chunk duck, dopper, dummy duck, fool duck, god-damn, greasey, Johnny Bull, paddywack, sleepy brother, soldier duck, spoon-billed butterball, tough-head, and wiretail (Kortright, 1953:364). Samuel Johnson has said: "The rigour of interpretative lexicography requires that the explanation, and the word explained should always be reciprocal" (Johnson, 1797:9). I gave a final matching test to five of my literate informants with glosses from Webster's Third New International Dictionary.

"blue." One informant correctly paired six out of eight. The remaining scores were too shameful to reveal. I was tempted to conclude reluctantly with Dr. Johnson that "most men think indistinctly, and therefore cannot speak with exact- ness" (Johnson, 1797:12), but it seems more likely that the fault lies not in my informants' lack of native ability, but rather in their lack of instruction and their unfamiliarity with literary aspects of the English language. In the absence of a dictionary, in the absence of recognized authorities, who is your authority? Is it the majority? Is it the people? The above array of popular wisdom is disconcerting. Frank Cancian was able to derive further clarification of the structure of the Zinancantec religious hierarchy by utiliz- ing his informants' errors, but he was sufficiently canny to choose a domain where error could be readily determined and measured (Frank Cancian, 1963a). Either a man was "grand alcalde" in 1956 or he was not. My own attempts to sort out the rubbish were not marked with such success. A task allied to the problem of meaning was the proper sorting out of roots and their classification by types. I had replied on Terrence Kaufman's advice from the very start in establishing grammatical classes. His comparative knowl- edge of Mayan languages would be especially useful. So we spent a Christmas season poring over the vocabulary trying to delineate homonymous roots, and trying to generate a syntactic system that would take into account the various assemblages of words under one root. Even after days of persistent sifting through the mass of material, we had only reached halfway through the alphabet. What at first had seemed would be a realistic and simple linguistic ordering soon became cluttered with innumerable anomalies. The flu and the mindless variety of linguistic facts drove us to de- spair. It was left to me to continue to the end, supported by long distance calls to my mentor for help. I don't believe it is false to report that his own confidence was severely tried as he witnessed even the most basic rules of Tzotzil sound- change violated not 20 percent of the time, not 40 percent, but 60 percent! On this note of disorder ended my second stage of lexicog- raphy. The caterpillars continued to wriggle on their pins in the most alarming way. Even so I looked forward to the final presentation of my collection, secure that despite its inconsis- tencies it was a considerable achievement. THIRD STAGE?PRESENTATION The final stage was inaugurated by a game of jotto which I was induced to play on a computer terminal to prove to me that even I could face the new world bravely. It was the first step into the heart of darkness. A team of keypunchers trans- ferred the information from the 25,000 typed vocabulary slips to a computer tape. I rented time on a computer termi- nal and hired an operator to make corrections. When the representative from the VIP Company stopped by to look at her work, he exclaimed, "That's all garbage!" In retrospect his reaction was not surprising, for in addition to the bizarre combination of letters was the insertion of percentage signs, commercial ats, knot signs, pound signs, a host of code letters that would eventually indicate such things as capitalization, italics, and boldface. The decision to computerize the dictionary was based on the following grounds: (1) it would permit offset printing at a much lower cost than type-setting; (2) it would eliminate proofreading at the galley-proof stage and avoid the intro- duction of new errors by typesetters; (3) it would permit the creation of the English-Tzotzil section by automatic means; and, finally (4), it would store the data in a form that would be susceptible to manipulation by future scholars who could pull out whole classes of data for investigation. On the face of it, the grounds are logical and eminently sensible. But it must be remembered that computers tolerate no errors. The "input" must be perfect. My terminal operator did her best. It was not good enough. Every space in the 80-character line had to be properly filled. If a correction involved a change in spacing, then not only that line, but every succeeding line of that entry had to be changed by a complicated procedure that was itself subject to human error. Endless proofreading always revealed new errors that had been overlooked. Once this material was transferred to tape at considerable expense, we were left with the botanical data that was still awaiting final determinations. A quick glance at the plant entries hardly suggests their complexity now that they have been stripped of all the code characters?charac- ters which demanded that the keypuncher shift constantly from upper to lower case and back again. Tzotzil, English, Latin, abbreviations of botanical authors, specimen num- bers, informant numbers?so much gibberish. By mispunch- ing the line number, the line would be inserted at the wrong end of the dictionary. One 80-character line of input with its number tells the story eloquently as shown in the box below. Neither professional keypunchers, Harvard amateurs, nor I were sufficient to the task. My most experienced keypuncher, forced to seek confirmation of his insanity to escape the draft, worked with phenomenal speed and accuracy while thor- oughly stoned. But even he could take only so many months of gibberish. Each successive keypuncher compounded the errors as she made corrections. One finally rebelled, calling it "shitwork," berated my programmer for involving her in such "immoral, antihuman" activity. I learned then how right she was. Zeno's principle of infinite progression seemed truer and truer as I proofread on planes, boats, beds, in buses, MATAS, MATAS, N1E., RAILWAY$BEGGARTICKS$(@BIDENS PILOSA)*@L.*, #104(1,2,4,5), 91001011 INTRODUCTION 13 cars, subways, doctors' offices, computer centers, at home, and in the field with never an end in sight. I can speak with no authority on the difficulties of pro- gramming this dictionary. I only saw the results of errors and did my best to guide my programmers to the solution of these errors. I have the greatest respect for their competence, but it has been a humbling experience for us all. The program rules that governed the Tzotzil field numbered only four, but those that governed the English field ran to many, many pages of extraordinary complexity. For example: 18 CAPCHAT = ' < ' 19 CAPSHAT = ' > ' 20 CAPCENT = ' + ? 21 TZLG = 'ABDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWY' CAPCHAT CAPSHAT CAPCENT 22 TZSM = 'abdefghijklmnopqrstuvwy' CHAT SHAT CENT 23 SPECOLD - '7CXZcxz' 24 SPECNEW = GLOTAL CHAT SHAT CENT CHAT SHAT CENT 25 TZOLD = TZLG SPECOLD 'e' BOLDFACE ROMAN 26 TZNEW = TZSM SPECNEW ']' ROMAN BOLDFACE 27 TOACCENT = 'aeiounAEIOUN' * MUST ASSIGN CHARACTER CODES HERE * ACCENTED = 'AEIOUNAEIOUN' 28 ACCENTED = '431062431062' 29 SMALL = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz' 30 LARGE = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPO.RSTUVWXXZ' 31 RAISE = REPLACE(&ALPHABET,SMALL,LARGE) , 32 TZOTREP = REPLACE(&ALPHABET,TZOLD, TZNEW) 33 CROSS = REPLACE(&ALPHABET,TOACCENT, ACCENTED) 34 SHRINK = REPLACE(&ALPHABET,LARGE V, SMALL ']') 35 ENGPICK = BREAK('@%]e():l') $ PIECE LEN (1) 8 CODE 36 GRAPICK = BREAK(']@(/:') $ PIECE LEN(l) SCODE LEN(l) $ CHAR 37 GRAPICK = BREAK(']@(/:') .

My mind was twisted by algorithms and concatenations. The simplest of manipulations proved the most difficult to program. The "automatic" conversion of Tzotzil-English to English-Tzot- zil required a nearly endless series of intermediate steps to render the material amenable to the rules which we hoped would produce the desired result. Often we were forced back to the keypunch stage to sidestep otherwise insoluble prob- lems, to eliminate ambiguities. While I was fully aware of the necessity to present my data in a consistent format, and tried with excruciating care to do so, I never dreamed that there could be so many minor irregularities. It began to seem that just as numerical order was the basis of computer technology, so literal rebelliousness was the nature of a dictionary, that what we were attempting was impossible. A single error in the program could produce such devastating results; the inability to handle a single in- stance of a class of phenomena meant obviously that it could handle no instance of that class of phenomena. The depend- ence of the program on perfect data produced bizarre results when a comma was excluded or a semicolon substituted for a colon. English words would be printed in Tzotzil charac- ters, half of a line would be dropped and another line repeat- ed, lines would begin halfway across the page. Because they began with a capital letter enclosed by a parenthesis, "God cursing," the "Voice of America braying," and "God dam- ning" were listed in Latin in the scientific index. A sense of doom descended upon me as print-outs were lost not once, but three times in the mail. Each print-out became shorter and shorter while the letter "y" mysteriously contract- ed as if the dictionary were an autodigestive mushroom or a serpent with its tail in its mouth. For seven months the com- puter work was described as within two weeks of conclusion. For as many months I pestered my programmers with long distance phone calls as we tried to define and redefine the constantly shifting requirements. I confess that unbeknownst to my programmers, their names, with slight alterations be- came the despairing epithet for the enterprise of this peri- od?"Fink, Garble, and Vote." Finally in March 1973, we produced the first perfect sample of Tzotzil-English and En- glish Tzotzil. Because the charges for the Columbia Univer- sity computer were nine times more economical than those for the Harvard computer, we had the first complete copy of the dictionary produced in New York. When I went to pick it up I discovered that the Tzotzil-English section was very much as I had desired. But the English to Tzotzil section of The Great Tzotzil Dictionary had been reduced to the lowest common denominator; page after page of one letter per line arranged in a single column. This was followed by all the Latin names neatly decapitated and arranged alphabetically according to the second letter. The final section consisted of English plant names, one name to a page. More stunned than suicidal, I trundled my rubbish back to Washington. My dictionary became known around the museum as The Great Tzotzil Disaster. Then followed three weeks of grim en- counter with the computer. I spoke of Mayan curses, but was politely corrected?not superstition, but Murphy's Law that declares that all significant computer programs will have bugs, and conversely, that any computer program lacking bugs is trivial. Every misadventure of the past three years seemed to be recapitulated in these three weeks. We seemed to be harrowing hell, for the deeper we dug, the more pesti- lence we uncovered, and simultaneously the computer sys- tem crashed, the interpreter misinterpreted, the duplicator made false comparisons, the lister listed numbers instead of 14 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 letters and when I cried out in despair I was comforted by a computer jock who reassured me, saying, "It's perfectly all right, you can still read the numbers1." Our semifinal run of the dictionary was halted by a card whose presence in the deck was totally inexplicable, and by a malfunctioning tape drive whose chances of disrupting our work in this way were authoritatively assessed at one in ten million. One day before April Fool's, as if by magic, the computer mechanically dis- charged The Great Tzotzil Dictionary of San Lorenzo Zinacantan. When I proudly showed it to a technician in the Government Printing Office where I had anticipated it would be pub- lished, he observed dryly, "Our linotron can't handle that junk." At this writing I can only await the future dispassion- ately, remembering the fate of the great Indian lexicogra- pher, Praharaj, who lived to witness his mammoth quadrilin- gual dictionary, the fruit of twenty-five years of labor, carted off in wheelbarrows to be sold by the pound as scrap paper. JUSTIFICATION What belongs in a bilingual dictionary? Ideally speaking, the bilingual dictionary would anticipate every conceivable need of the prospective user. (1) It would provide for each word or expression in the source language (SL) just the right translation in the target language (TL) including, most important- ly, the one needed for the passage in hand. (2) It would contain all the words, locutions, circumlocutions, and idioms that any user might ever want to look up. (3) It would contain all the inflectional, derivational, syntactic and semantic information that any user might ever need. (4) It would contain certain information on all levels of usage, including special warnings about words not to be used in the presence of ladies, in the presence of children, or to or in the presence of one's superiors. (5) It would contain all personal names, names of personages past and present, place names, names of famous books and plays, names of characters therein, and any other names that any user might want to look up. (6) It would contain all specialized vocabulary items of all the sciences, profes- sions, manufacturing industries, and trades, each carefully and ap- propriately labelled as to its field. (7) It would contain all necessary information about correct spellings, as well as information on alter- nate or commonly-encountered incorrect spellings. (8) It would include all the information needed to instruct the user in the proper way to pronounce each word so as to be indetectable from the pronunciation of a native speaker. . . . (9) It ought to be equally oriented to speakers of both languages. . . . [10 not included] (11) Above all, it should be compact . . . (Haas 1962:45). The dictionary which would serve for an adequate semantic theo- ry is not, however, merely some typical exhaustive dictionary, such as is commonly published today. What is required is a listing of all the meanings (linguistic, referential, and emotive) structured in such a way as to reveal the patterns of structured contrasts which form the framework of meaning (Nida, 1964:102). The pioneering aims of Samuel Johnson, whom I will call on frequently for enlightenment, are scarcely outmoded by modern demands. I resolved to show likewise my attention to things. To pierce deep into every science, to inquire the nature of every substance of which I inserted the name, to limit every idea by a definition strictly logical and exhibit every production of art or nature in an accurate description, that my book might be in place of all other dictionaries whether appellative or technical. But these were the dreams of a poet, doomed at last to wake a lexicographer (Johnson 1797:12). After such a preface, how do I speak of "the romance of words"? My work, now in a form which computer specialists are pleased to call a "storage dump," must seem either comic or tragic, but surely not romantic! Am I compelled to review my efforts to compile these 30,000 entries as "procedures for obtaining and interpreting dumps"? (IBM System/360 Operat- ing System: Programmer's Guide to Debugging, 1972: title page.) How can I justify the expenditure of $67,000 in grants and private contributions as well as ten salaried years of labor, largely devoted to this enterprise? Is there no metaphor that can rightly convey the adventure and will lead to a more positive evaluation? I believe there is. A contemporary lin- guist speaks of translating from the "jungle language" into English (Quine, 1964). The literal exuberance of spoken forms cannot but inspire admiration for the varieties of hu- man experience. The heaviness of this tome makes a mockery of the conventional wisdom that "primitives" speak "primi- tive" languages. "Of all adults in our world today, four out of ten can neither read nor write. Words are a mystery to them, and they live by signs" (Miami Herald, sometime during spring 1959). Once again, Dr. Johnson provides a healthy perspective: When I took the first survey of my undertaking, I found our speech copious without order, and energetick without rules; wher- ever I turned my view, there was perplexity to be made out of boundless variety, without any established principle of selection; adulterations were to be detected, without a settled test of purity; and modes of expression to be rejected or received, without the suffrages of any writers of classical reputation or acknowledged authority (Johnson, 1797:5). But my own approach has been diametrically opposed to Dr. Johnson's, who wrote: I could not visit caverns to learn the miners' language, nor take a voyage to perfect my skill in the dialect of navigation, nor visit the warehouses of merchants, and shops of artificers, to gain the names of wares, tools, and operations, of which no mention is made in books; what favourable accident, or easy inquiry, brought within my reach, had not b'een neglected: but it had been a hopeless labour to glean up words, by courting living information, and contesting with the sullenness of one, and the roughness of another (Johnson 1797:12). Living information is the content of this dictionary. It was collected on the premise that "the most fruitful approach to the semantic problem of any language is the ethiiological one" (Nida, 1945:97), that "in effect one does not translate languages one translates cultures" (Casagrande, 1954:338), and that with no context there is no sense. I cannot claim that simply by immersing myself in the culture of Zinacantan I was able always to distinguish primary from secondary meanings nor that I was freed from making quite arbitrary distinctions "between different shades of the same meaning and different meanings of the same word" (Ullman, 1962:69). INTRODUCTION 15 To interpret a language by itself is very difficult; many words cannot be explained by synonyms, because the idea signified by them has not more than one appellation; nor by paraphrase, be- cause simple ideas cannot be described. When the nature of things is unknown, or the notion unsettled and indefinite, and various in various minds, the words by which such notions are conveyed, or such things denoted, will be ambiguous and perplexed. And such is the fate of hapless lexicography, that not only darkness, but light, impedes and distresses it; things may be not only too little, but too much known, to be happily illustrated. To explain, requires the use of terms less abstruse than that which is to be explained, and such terms cannot always be found; for as nothing can be proved but by supposing something intuitively known, and evident without proof, so nothing can be defined but by the use of words too plain to admit a definition (Johnson, 1797:9). "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in a rather scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean?neither more nor less." "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things." "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, '"which is to be master? that's all" (Carroll, 1962:247). Nevertheless, because of my aging in Zinacantan, I can claim a perspective and knowledge of Tzotzil that would have been impossible to acquire in any bookish way. It is natural that the recent interest in ethnoscience, which by its insistence on the definition of cultural domains in native terms, has generated a new respect for lexical items, would not extend that respectful attitude to a list of words in meaningless, endless alphabetical order. The logical meeting ground not only of sister sciences, but of poet and scientist, has been left largely to missionaries for the spreading of the Word. General dictionaries of obscure languages are not fashionable, but if the understanding of human cultural be- havior is the goal of anthropology, and if language is, in a sense, a "mirror for man," the pragmatic and semantic inves- tigation of man's socially patterned linguistic habits is surely relevant (Morris, 1938). While a lexicon should not be equat- ed with language, it offers valuable clues to the question: "To what extent and in what ways is a language an index of its associated culture?" (Hymes, 1962:167). In more dynamic terms: What is the impact of language upon thought? Even a general dictionary, whose structure tells so little about a language, may carry the contents for the study of semantic universals: semantic regularities not manifested in form, recurrent types of associated or discriminated concepts, transparent and opaque words, metaphoric patterns, sy- naesthesia, and onomatopoeia (Casagrande, 1963; Ullman, 1963). This same raw material, presenting the fields or em- phases of lexical concern specific to a particular language, the "structure" of its vocabulary, should provide insight into the structure of native concepts (Newman, 1954), and aid later scholars in making more narrowly defined comprehen- sive studies. An ethnographic dictionary can aid the linguist in the realignment of grammatic categories. Even though the Tzot- zil noun classes and root classes that we conjured up from the material have proved not to be the master, even though after a decade of their use I have failed to commit them to memo- ry, and discovered their unwieldiness too late to subject them to improvement, they do not mask the complexities of the language nor do they conceal the evidence. It seems likely that cutting across many spheres, there exists a Pan-Mayan system of metaphoric associations which persists despite the lexical and grammatical fragmentation of proto-Mayan into many languages. But the limited nature of most Mayan dictionaries until recently has discouraged com- parative studies (Kaufman, 1964, 1969; McQuown, 1964). The establishment of such a Pan-Mayan system of associa- tions should aid in the decipherment of ancient Mayan in- scriptions. To the historian a general dictionary lays bare a stratum of cultural artifacts, words, which define important segments of a culture and illustrate the impingement of foreign influ- ence (Voegelin, 1959). For instance, Nahuatl loan words that were never hispanicized and must therefore have been intro- duced directly into Tzotzil number less than ten, casting considerable doubt on Herrera's claim that Zinancantan was once under Aztec domination. As an ethnologist, I have benefited and suffered from the intellectual currents of my time. This dictionary is not free from those influences. I maintained that a broad and unbi- ased coverage of the vocabulary was assured by journeying from root to root. But as Romin, ''Anselmo, and I proceeded on our quixotic pilgrimage I could see my fellow anthropolo- gists engaged in a far more serious endeavor, tedious beyond words, but at least true science, inspiring severe determina- tion, awesome in its resolve. In these hard times, "Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. Stick to the Facts, sir!" " .Bitzer," said Thomas Gradgrind. "Your definition of a horse." "Quadruped. Graminivorous. Forty teeth, namely twenty-four grinders, four eye-teeth, and twelve incisive. Sheds coat in the spring; in marshy countries, sheds hoofs too. Hoofs hard, but requir- ing to be shod with iron. Age known by marks in mouth." Thus (and much more) Bitzer. "Now girl number twenty," said Mr. Gradgrind, "You know what a horse is." " .You must discard the word Fancy altogether. . .. You must use. .for all these purposes, combinations and modifications (in primary colors) of mathematical figures which are susceptible of proof and demonstration. This is the new discovery. This is fact. This is taste" (Dickens, 1854:1-4). I confess that componential analysis had no influence on this dictionary. Not so with "contrast level" studies which map native words in hierarchies of different levels of general- ity. When collecting plants it seemed incumbent upon me not only to collect the names of plants, but to capture in part the native taxonomy?to indicate where the name fit in the Tzotzil taxonomy, whether it belonged to such things as the "life form" of U") (tree), Oak'(vine), zW has a voiceless off-glide in final position, e.g.,yuy. Glottalization is simultaneous with the oral articulation of w y 22 EXPLANATORY NOTES 23 a glottalized consonant in pre-vowel position, e.g., k'abil. It begins slightly prior to the oral articulation of a glottalized consonant in final position, e.g., pik'. It is simultaneous with the vowel preceding a glottalized consonant in pre-consonant position, e.g., ^ak'bon. The recognition of glottalized consonants in medial posi- tion when followed by a consonant and in final position, probably the most difficult phonetic aspects of Tzotzil for the beginner, is made easier by noting the apparent lengthening and tenseness of the vowel that precedes a glottalized conso- nant. Primary stress occurs on the final syllable of single words in isolation except in affective verbs with -luh, first person plural exclusive suffixes, and reduplicated stems of two sylla- bles. In the latter instances, the stress is indicated by an acute accent. In normal speech, however, primary stress falls upon the root vowels (on the first, if there are two) and at the end of a phrase. ROOT CLASSIFICATION CLASSES Tzotzil vocabulary has been grouped under 2715 putative roots which are printed in boldface and ordered alphabeti- cally. The roots are stems with no derivational suffixes. They have been classified according to the following scheme. A adjective root; often combined with suffixes -ib/-ub. E expletive root. I Intransitive verb root; combinable with -es transitive suf- fix. I2 intransitive verb root; combinable with -VI adjectival suffix. N noun root, often combined with intransitivising suffixes -ah, -an, and transitivising suffix -la. Num numeral root. O onomatopoeic root. P positional root; combinable with -an transitive suffix, -i intransitive suffix, and -VI adjectival suffix. Pj positional root; combinable with -0 transitive suffix and lacking -an transitive suffix. Pt particle root. T transitive verb root. T2 transitive verb root; combinable with -VI adjectival suf- fix. X undeterminable root. U unique CVC (consonant, vowel, consonant) occuring only in adjectives, between the adjective root and an -an suffix. The determination of root boundaries and the separation of homophonous roots from each other was made by follow- ing a combination of semantic and grammatical criteria. If a segment of the vocabulary shared a common stem, a common range of meaning, and the suffixes typical of a particular root class, it could be assigned confidently to a single root, identified in one of the above categories. Unfortu- nately, this ideal was not encountered with overwhelming frequency. Often certain diagnostic suffixes were not present in the material. This necessitated an either/or determina- tion, or a probable determination. Por Pj if lacking transitive verb forms. P2 or T2 if lacking intransitive verb forms. prob P or P2 if lacking transitive and intransitive verb forms. prob O if lacking -0 onomatopoeic form. prob N if lacking noun form, but having verbal deriva- tional suffixes normally associated with noun roots. A or N if range is so restricted that it is not clear whether the term is an adjective or a mod- ifying noun occurring in a noun type noun phrase. prob A or N same as above, usually restricted to plant and animal names. No less frequent was a surfeit of diverse forms sharing a common stem and a common range of meaning: P, P2 positional root occurring with the derivational suffixes typical of P roots and with -0 trans- itive suffix as well. P, T, or T2 positional root as above, but with semipassive -0 intransitive suffix as well. Occasionally words that I grouped together under a single root because of their obvious semantic similarities produced a baffling combination of what I had thought to be mutually exclusive forms. Typical of this situation are roots that com- bine all the characteristic forms of both transitive and intran- sitive verb roots. Unusual noun and adjective forms are fre- quently included under positional roots because of their clear semantic kinship with a full array of positional forms. (See Figure 3, p. 31.)

It requires the ability to provide faultless definitions of Tzotzil words and a consummate knowledge of Tzotzil patterns of association. As I boast neither power, my solutions in grouping words with identical stems under roots must be considered tentative. For instance, I would not have realized a semantic link existed between the concept of covering and that of easing pain had these two concepts not been linked in two separate roots, lam and mak. The stream of associations encountered may be- 24 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 come nearly surrealistic as in the root bal(l) which comprises entries that mean: Round off/log/; braid/rope/; twine/thread/; roll up/blanket/; make (rocket); lose control of self (drunk); flog; flower (corn field); fall a great distance; die; become dry (mouth); rolling; tossing; bubbling; and boiling. Many roots seem to display a few entries whose semantic relationship to the other entries is not at all evident. If, when separated out, these represented a grouping of suffixes that was characteristic of a particular root class, they were as- signed to a distinct root, but if they made no grammatical "sense" as a unit they were retained in one root with the others. ETYMOLOGY Wherever possible, I have indicated the etymology of loan roots. For Spanish loan words that are derived from Nahuatl, I have relied on Santamaria's etymological analysis (Santamaria, 1959) particularly of plant names. I have frankly guessed at the possible Chiapanec origin of names of a number of lowland trees, such as hutuhu and mukumu. Zoque loans I have identified as proto Mixe-Zoque, because I have no evidence to date their incorporation into Tzotzil. The two roots derived from English, pikot from pickup, silete from Gillette, have been introduced via Spanish. Although a large number of roots are of Spanish origin these roots are productive to only a very minor degree compared to native Tzotzil roots whose productivity provides that only a rela- tively small percentage of the total vocabulary is composed of Spanish loans though admittedly some of the Spanish loans such as pero, dyos, and bweno are used with great fre- quency. The abbreviations employed for language names and the tally of foreign roots are as follows. Ch E M-Z N Sp Tze Chiapanec English proto Mixe-Zoque Nahuatl Spanish Tzeltal 3 - 8 12 836 2 TRANSCRIPTION Vocabulary entries have been written in a transcription which resolves all automatic morphophonemic rules within words and indicates all syntactic word boundaries by space. Generally, inflexional suffixes have not been written out, but an exception was made for -V7 (vowel + / ) absolutive noun suffixes, and for -ik plural suffixes to reflexive pronouns, ad- jectives and affective verbs with the suffix -et. NOUNS The classification of nouns in this dictionary requires spe- cial mention. It was initiated with the intention of signaling to the reader, in a kind of shorthand, what nouns may be possessed and what their shape is when they are unpossessed, possessed animately, or possessed inanimately: nl animate possession same as absolute form. n2 animate possession same as absolute plus -VI (vowel + / ). n3 animate possession same as absolute minus -W. n4 always possessed. n5 unpossessed. Animate and inanimate possession occur: a if inanimate has -VI, animate does not, if inanimate lacks -VI, animate adds it. b inanimate same as animate, c inanimate with or without -VI. d only animate occurs, e only inanimate occurs with -VI. f only inanimate occurs without -VI. g only inanimate occurs with or without -V7. Words that are always, possessed (n4) will present problems initially for the user of this dictionary; if the initial consonant of the root is a glottal stop, the possessed form loses the glottal stop and takes the possession markers k-, av-, ory-; e.g.,yav "its place" is the possessed form of 9av under which it will be found. If the root begins with any other consonant, the possession marker will be h-, a-, or s-; e.g., sk'ob "his hand" will be found under k'ob. If the noun is inanimately possessed and occurs with a vowel + / suffix it will be found under the stem; e.g.,yoyal "its post" under 'loytyicd "its chili" under ">ic; svunal "its paper" under vun; sternal, "its bed" under tent; and spatil, "its back" under pat. The classificatory system reflects properties of nouns which, in turn reflect the shape of the world. For instance, while it was theoretically possible in 1959 for a Zinacantec to own a bus, no one did. Nor did Zinacantecs know person- ally anyone who did. And while it was within the resources of their language to say "my bus" or "his bus," my inform- ants steadfastly refused to do so. I dutifully assigned "bus" to the category "n5," unpossessed nouns. Times have changed. Still no Zinacantec owns a bus, but they know a man from San Cristobal who frequently transports them in his bus. There is no longer any hesitation in saying "his bus," and so the category of that word has changed to "nla." I do not pretend to claim that all Zinacantecs would agree to my assignment of labels, but there was a fair degree of consensus throughout the years of investigation. Not only may the nature of a noun change in time, but its assignment to a particular class is determined also by the context in which it is used. For example, the phrase ")ak' krasia means to bless. A ritual tutor may give a blessing, may say grace, but only God can give his blessing. Consequently, in the first situation krasia is labeled "n5," a noun that is never, in this context, possessed. But in the second situation it is labeled "n4f," a noun that is always, in this context, possessed by an inanimate subject, God. Or the word leal, "mouth," is labeled "n3b," indicating that it may be possessed by both animate and inanimate beings and that when it is possessed it drops the -al suffix. In the entry kacet ">e "with mouth agape," the word for mouth is always animately possessed and so is marked here "n4d." The usefulness of category "n2" became increasingly ques- tionable to me. It seemed to be a cover for my own bewil- EXPLANATORY NOTES 25 derment over the multiplicity of homophonous suffixes whose nature was not and still is not clear to me. In almost all instances, I have eliminated "n2" nouns by listing them as two separate stems. I have done the same with categories "c" and "g." Unfortunately, the task of revising the entire num- bering system accordingly was too arduous to be undertaken at this late date. Inanimate possession is a noteworthy feature of Tzotzil. It is applied not only in ways familiar to English speakers, as in "the table's legs," but also to indicate the linkage of two objects, or of an object and an action, either by location or by design. For example: "the bowl's dirt"?the dirt in the bowl "my leg's mosquito"?the mosquito on my leg "the corn field's raccoons"?the raccoons in the corn field "the beans' chili"?the chili in the beans, or, the chili for the beans "the com field's weeding"?the weeding of the corn field Inanimate possession markers may be combined with animate possession markers to provide a purposive rather than a possessive link between person and object. For in- stance, capal amacilail means "the machete to kill you with is ready [and waiting]." NUMERAL CLASSIFIERS A wide variety of things and actions may not be counted by the standard numbering system, but require the use of an alternate system of numbers that are compounded to nu- meral classifiers. These numeral classifiers are used to de- scribe the nature of the object being counted. Rather than counting simply "two oranges," one must count "two spheri- cal oranges," or instead of "three men," "three erect men." These classifiers have been given a special notation. When a numeral classifier is reduplicated, it indicates a "single" ob- ject; e.g., h-p'ehp'eh na, "a single house." After the definition, I have placed /1 only/ to denote that only the numeral prefix h- may be appended. There is no way, using a reduplicated classifier, to say "two single" objects. Following the definition of other numeral classifiers, I have placed /2-3/ or /I -4/ etc., to indicate how many of these items or actions are usually counted. For example, the numeral classifier sap, for "rinse," is followed by / I - 3 / since more than three rinses are very improbable. PARTICLES I have considered as particles words with a rather wide variety of functions. They include the definite articles, It and ti; the demonstrative, si; the locational preposition, to; and sentence fillers and hesitants such as ">a, fun, ce*>e. They also include words that act as conjunctions, binding clauses to- gether, such as 1o,yoi. Aspect?completion, duration, or rela- tive time?is expressed by particles, e.g., los, sa, ta, to,yolel. Status particles express the degree of certainty or extent, such as la, kik, k'ahom, nan, no or express a desiderative, beseeching quality, e.g., me. Affirmation and denial are represented by the particles ffti, ha*>, A?, and mofoh. And, finally, there are modal particles that are interrogative: e.g., k'u; k'usi; mi; or negative, e.g., mu.

SEMANTICS It would be too tedious and beyond my power to try to point out the semantic qualities of each of the affixes that are included. There are, though, a number of miscellaneous ob- servations that can be made in regard to a few of them, which may be helpful. Positional roots, that is, roots which are concerned primar- ily with shapes or states, normally have two transitive verb forms and an intransitive verb form. The CVC-J0' tv form usually implies moving an object in the state specified by the root. The CVC-an tv form usually implies that the object is arriving at or presently in the state specified by the root. Affective verbs, occurring most frequently with positional and onomatopoeic roots, but also with transitive verb roots, are declined like intransitive verbs, but only in the continua- tive aspect. Two forms, -luh and -lah, lack infinitives. Affec- tive verbs are used characteristically in narrative description with a certain gusto, a desire to convey a vivid impression. They have dash. Their specific semantic value, however, is not easy to ascertain. CVC-et and CVC-Con frequently ap- pear to have the same meaning. CVC-et emphasizes perma- nence, a single location, and a state of neglect or abandon- ment. CVC-Con intensifies the particular state of the root. It may stress the slowness or ponderousness of its motion, the ineffectiveness or repetition of an action, the loudness of a noise. The plural of the former suffix is -ik. But the form CVC-lahet seems at times to be the plural of CVC-*< and at other times the plural of CVC-Con. The subject of this verb form may be plural or it may be singular yet with a plural quality, as a horse thrashing its four legs, or a man gesticulat- ing, or a pain that spreads through the body. In addition, there is the semantically similar plural form CVC-lahetik which, however, appears to require a human or at least an animate subject. The affective verb CVC-/aA occurs always in the sequence av + sa + directional verb. It implies the rapid motion of an object or animal towards or away from either the narrator or the protagonist. The affective verb CVC-/?A indicates a single sudden sound or movement. And, finally, the form CVC-te-CVC-te denotes a sequence of subjects, locations, or actions; for example, walking one after another, walking along, walking here and there, or walking time and again. Three adjectival forms frequently pertain to positional roots. They are a reduplicated CVC, a CVC-V/, and a CVC-el. The first two are semantically similar. The former seems to have greater immediacy, being used to describe an object before one's eyes or, like affective verbs, to convey an emotional reaction. The form CVC-V/ has two plurals, CVC-Vlik and CVC-ahtik, whose semantic distinctions have eluded me. CVC-el is used invariably in derogatory remarks tossed at another person, e.g. banel ahol "You are bald!" In intransitive and transitive verb roots the suffix -ilan/- ulan indicates that the action is repetitive, constant, or slow and ineffective. Transitive verb roots and some positional roots have a suffix -an which expresses the plurality of the object or some- times of the subject. It may imply hurried action. This suffix may be reduplicated, the CVC-an may be reduplicated, or die CVC-an may be reduplicated with the -an reduplicated again to produce a form like ismahanmahanan "he hit one after another." The reduplication of CVC-an seems to imply se- quential action, but I was unable to elicit any semantic dis- tinction between CVC-an and CVC-anan or between CVC-anCVG-an and CVC-anCVC-anan. The second mem- ber of the above pairs is used, though, with much less fre- quency. Transitive verb stems may take an intransitivizing suffix -van. In nearly all instances, it denotes that the action is directed towards, on behalf of, or in relation to people (peo- ple in general). Noun stems with -ebal generally indicate a moment in time or a locus in space. This same association of spatio-temporal realms applies to the -antik suffix of numeral classifiers and adjectives. It denotes a wide separation in space or time. Finally, transitive verb stems may take the nominalizing suffix -ob or -obil. Both of these forms indicate instrumentali- ty; either the place where an action is accomplished or the implement required to carry out that action. The -obil suffix seems to imply a greater permanence. It implies, for exam- ple, a tool that is designed for a particular purpose, not simply a tool that may be used temporarily for that same purpose. PHONETICS When affixation produces consonant clusters "79, hh, nn, ss, or is'., the phonetic value of only one consonant is retained. All other clustered consonants produced by affixation are separated by syllable division. An s prefixed to a stem with an initial "c, c' or s changes to s by assimilation. It may also assimilate if the final consonant is s. The s prefixed to a stem with an initial or final e or s changes to s. In earlier studies (Colby 1970) the continuative aspect particle, ta was com- EXPLANATORY NOTES 27 bined with s- by eliding the vowel and written c-. Here, it is represented as t J-, although it is pronounced c. I am not entirely happy with the decisions I have made in assigning to one morpheme the status of a word and to an- other the status of an affix. The very first entry of the diction- ary is a case in point: ala, meaning "surely, indeed, certain- ly." If it is a word, it violates the canon that all Tzotzil utterances begin with a consonant. If it is a suffix, and that is how my informants write it, it may be attached to verbs, nouns, adjectives, and perhaps even to particles. Particles which I have dignified with the status of words are more often written by my informants as affixes. There is little consisten- cy, however, in their decision of what a particle should be attached to, whether to the word preceding or the word following. In the face of such inconsistency, it seemed safer to set the particles free. COMPOUNDS There are surely many words which under more careful analysis will prove to be compound forms. Compounding has been indicated by hyphenation. For aesthetic reasons I have omitted the hyphens in most com- pounds that are made up of more than two words, such as hlik tav lak'al, "censer bearer." Compound verbs may be recognized as those words which may be enclosed between aspect and person marker prefixes and the appropriate plu- ral suffixes. For instance, mukul-^elk'amk, "they snitched it." Noun and adjective compounds are frequently recognized by the absence of a -VI suffix on the first word. I made a single conscious exception to this rule in expressions that juxtaposed a body-part term with another noun; e.g., when holol, "head" a"nd vie, "mountain" are combined as hoi vie to mean "mountaintop" or when satil, "eye" and vo">, "water" are combined as sat vof to mean "spring." Noun compounds whose first unit is a verb may be recognized by the absence of aspect, person, or plural markers on the verb. [See "Special Note," p. 33.?Ed.] ORDER OF ENTRIES 1. All stems with the same phonemic sequence as the root are listed alphabetically. Compounds are listed in the same alphabetical sequence as phrases. 2.They are followed by stems with derivational prefixes, 3. then by expressions in which that stem is not the first member of the phrase. These phrases are also listed alphabet- ically. 4. If the stem does not have the same phonemic sequence as the root, it succeeds the above, followed by 5. such stems with prefixes and . 6. such stems embedded in phrases. For example: pak'?mend, plaster, hang on wall pak'al?lying (clothes), low-lying, flattened, bedridden hpak'tan?person who pats tortillas e'U pak'al?red striped turban pok'?neckerchief, scarf *hpok' /il pok'?red-striped turban The order of taxonomic entries does not conform to the above scheme (cf. "Taxonomic Entries"). NONPHONEMIC SYMBOLS In the grammatical analysis section of the entries there may be three orders of increasing complexity. 1. Parentheses, as in nphr(n of n)5. 2. Slashes, as in nphr(n/aj & ncpd/ of n)5. 3. Colon, as in nphr: nphr(n/aj & ncpd/ of n)5. In the English definition section, parentheses and slashes serve a different purpose. Parentheses enclose appropriate subjects for the verb or for the modifying adjective being defined. That is, the concepts enclosed by parentheses were suggested to me in response to my query: "What does that?" or "What is described by that word?" They are not intended as an exhaustive list, but merely as pointers to likely contexts. Slashes enclose appropriate objects of the verb, subjects mod- ified by other nouns or brief incidental comments. When an appropriate subject or object could not be re- duced to a single word, an attempt has been made to have the first word of the phrase be the word which one would translate into Tzotzil if one wished to use the entry in that particular context; e.g., mash /beans and corn with hands to make bean tamales/. CAPITALIZATION Capitalization has been used in Tzotzil words only to indi- cate personal names or place-names that are embedded in the dictionary or that appear directly on the maps. VARIANTS Words which vary from the form spoken in the ceremonial center, Htek-lum, are labeled as variants, and the hamlets where they are spoken are indicated wherever possible. Words which vary from the form in most common use in Htek-lum are simply marked as variant. NOUN PHRASES Noun phrases comprised of two nouns have been classified into three categories. Where the second noun indicates the owner or origin of the first noun, as in ton e'unun, "egg of hummingbird" (i.e. "hummingbird egg") or hoi ")akan, "head of knee" (i.e. "kneecap,"), the phrase is labeled "noun of noun." Where the first noun describes the quality or content of the second, as in "leather bag," "baby bird," the phrase is labeled "noun type noun." The third category is a variant 28 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 of the second and is distinguished in Tzotzil by a -V/ attrib- utive suffix. It is represented by phrases which, in translation, might be rendered as "land crab," "tree fern," and "house boat." These phrases are labeled "noun attribute and noun." Noun phrases may be possessed. The numbering system used to describe noun possession is used to describe the posses- sion of noun phrases. SPEECH CATEGORIES followed by "large grove of oaks" and "grove of oaks" (this order was necessitated in Tzotzil because "large grove" pre- cedes "grove" alphabetically). Then would follow such com- binations as "black oak," "live oak," and "red oak," listed alphabetically and indented one space. If, however, there was a "southern live oak" that would follow "live oak" direct- ly and be indented two spaces. If, further, there was a "dwarf southern live oak" that would follow "southern live oak" and be indented one additional space so that you would have the following appearance: Lacking a knowledge of native categories of speech, I have essayed, nevertheless, to delimit with slightly greater preci- sion the context of certain vocabulary entries by inventing a number of speech categories whose degree of reality varies considerably. Some entries have been marked as "archaic." This means that they seem archaic to my younger informants who associate these words with the oldest living Zinacantecs. "Baby talk" is restricted to the speech of young children or to adults addressing young children. Other entries are la- beled as pertaining to "male speech" or "female speech." While I am not positive that such expressions are used exclu- sively by men or by women, I know that they are spoken predominantly by men or by women. Again, entries labeled "male joking speech" may perhaps be used appropriately by drunken women, but they are associated primarily with can- tina talk or with male joking situations during ritual or at work. "Polite speech" and "scolding speech" have been used characteristically when one wishes to make a graceful re- mark or to upbraid another. They have no particular struc- ture and are less real categories than the above. Quite the contrary is true of "ritual speech" and "denunciatory speech." These terms distinguish what we would consider to be two different contexts for the same speech phenomenon, but which I would venture Zinacantecs consider as a single context. Entries labeled "ritual" or "denunciatory" speech invariably form a part of traditional couplets or blocks of speech which, according to the occasion, may be used during ritual activities at home, in church, or at a mountain shrine when addressing the gods or may be used in self-righteous declamations at home or at the courthouse. In attempting to convey the archaic flavor of ritual and denunciatory speech in translation, I have resorted to the use of archaic second-person-singular forms, "thee," "thou," and "thy." TAXONOMIC ENTRIES The Tzotzil names of flora and fauna have been arranged in an order that differs from the rest of the dictionary. Some effort has been made to recognize increasing degrees of spec- ification, when that was possible within a single root. To take an English model as an example, "oak" would be listed first, oak large grove of oaks grove of oaks black oak live oak southern live oak dwarf southern live oak red oak This scheme was followed for all animals and plants. In the press of collecting and preparing plant specimens, I neglected .to inquire of my informants how a particular plant name was possessed. If the plant name had not been categorized grammatically by my informants in earlier years, this information was and still is lacking. The grammatical analysis of these forms is even more inadequate than that provided in the rest of the dictionary. The definition of taxonomic forms adheres to the following ideal pattern: Literal translation of name (enclosed by apos- trophes), common English name, scientific name (italicized). Botanical entries have additional information succeeding the above: Collection number, informant number (enclosed by parentheses), ecological zone, and supergeneric class (en- closed by quotation marks). For example: the botanical entry lic'ak mut and its gram- matical analysis nphr (n4d of n5) are followed by 'bird claw,' lilac fuschia (Fuscia arborescens), #420(1,2,5). Highland "tree." In literal translations, if the Tzotzil generic name is un- translatable, but has a simple English equivalent, English has been substituted for Tzotzil as in bak ^ u, 'skinny chili'; but if the English equivalent was "virgin's bower," I would not present the literal translation as 'skinny Virgin's bower', but as 'skinny t?usub\ Such common modifiers as ba/i, yit'is and terms for color and size have not been translated. The collection number for a botanical name refers to a botanical specimen, marked with my name and the same number and deposited at the Stanford University Herbari- um, with copies, when available, deposited also at the Smith- sonian Institution. Collection numbers preceded by B refer to specimens collected by Dennis Breedlove that are also deposited in the Stanford University Herbarium. The informant numbers refer to the following individuals: EXPLANATORY NOTES 29 Informants Residence of informant Specimens collected Von-Voh Von ?

Sun Lopis Informants 3, 11, and 21 are shamans. The age of the informants ranged from around eighteen years (11, 12, and 22) to fifty (11) and sixty years (14). Most of the informants were men in their thirties or forties. The ecological zone refers to the area in which the plant specimen was collected. If two or more zones are cited, it is because the collectors stated that the plant was native to those zones as well. Included in the definition of each plant is the supergeneric class to which it was assigned by the informants. The major classes are: "tree" (W>) "plant" (fitld) "vine" pak') "mushroom" (canul te%ik) Occasionally informants assigned plants to three other cate- gories: "grass" (hobel) "moss" (eon-ttf) "agave" (met) The first two are considered to be subdivisions of "plant" and the third is an anomalous category which falls between "tree" and "plant." There is little confusion regarding "vines;" but if a species that would normally be classed as a "plant" grows with great vigor, it may be identified as a "tree." Conversely, "trees" whose growth is stunted or which are collected in their early stages of growth may be identified as "plants." The additional ethnographic information concerning plants was pooled by informants 1 through 5. Information contributed by other collectors that conflicted with or elab- orated on that material is identified by informant number. The reliability of the identifications of flora and fauna varies rather considerably. Plants and birds were identified live and with relatively good control. Mammals not seen in the wild or at the zoo were identified often from pictures or from skins supplemented by notes as to their habits and habitat. Least reliance should be placed on the specific iden- tifications of the various kinds of mice and rats. Amphibians were identified with better authority. Snake identifications were made with authority in a few instances, but for the most part they were educated guesses based on informants' de- scriptions of their behavior. Insects were identified rarely as to species. The greatest insect differentiation in Tzotzil is accorded the bees and wasps. In addition to field identifica- tions, informants examined museum specimens in an attempt to arrive at more precise identifications. COLOR TERMS No attempt has been made to give an adequate translation of the adjectival forms of color terms which are composed of CVC color terms compounded to CVC roots and an -an suffix. The translation should include not only the color, but the meaning of the CVC root; for instance, cak-^otan, "red and plaited"; cak-p'itan, "red and bulging." But the meaning of the CVC root that qualifies the color term is unclear in nearly half of such words. To retain some consistency, I have simply translated the color term and left the rest of the word's meaning to be deduced from the examples given. For economy's sake, I have also restricted the translation of these color terms to a single appropriate color. Thus, yas-balan is translated as "green" even though yds- includes the colors "blue" and "gray." Reduplicated color terms and color terms with reflexive pronouns have not been listed. They indicate off-shades, such as greenish or yellowish. ARCHITECTURAL TERMS Names for the different structural elements of Zinacantec houses; e.g., pole plate, have been drawn from Wauchope (1938). SOUND EFFECTS A large number of Tzotzil expressions which describe particular sounds have been tested against the Elektra Sound Effects records EKL-252, 255, 258, 259, and Voice of Ameri- ca tapes 1?4. The latter will be deposited in the National Anthropological Archives. PLACE NAMES A very limited number of place names are embedded al- phabetically in the dictionary. These are either names which may take a variety of affixes that could not have been includ- ed otherwise in the dictionary, or they are geographic terms 30 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY NUMBER 19 which are not located on maps 1-5. The named locations on the maps are listed alphabetically at the end of the diction- ary. They are listed by numerical sequence adjacent to the maps. Names of rivers and trails, like the names of places with a limited geographical extent, are identified by a numbered dot that has been placed at a random point along their path. While less than satisfactory, this was necessitated both by the difficulty of including so many place-names and by the diffi- culty of tracing the trails and rivers on the aerial photo- graphs. CROSS-REFERENCES When a vocabulary entry consists of a noun phrase com- prised of an adjective and a noun, the main entry can be found generally under the noun, with a cross-reference under the adjective. Because so many plant names contain color and size modifiers, there is no cross-referencing under these adjectives. Entries consisting of noun-type noun phrases are listed generally under the latter noun with a cross-reference under the former, though this ideal was not met in every case. Plant names which are always possessed and whose roots have an initial glottal stop are listed under their root even though this may cause some confusion to the beginner. For examp\e,j>arna cauk is listed under tama as larna cauk, nphr(n4f of n5). Or yoyal vinahel is listed under loy as toy vinahel, nphr(n4e of vn5). The majority of plant names beginning Withy fall into this category. ETHNOGRAPHIC NOTES In addition to the ethnographic information enclosed within slashes or parentheses following the translation of a Tzotzil entry, more extensive notes may be included. Because an excellent ethnography of Zinacantan exists (Vogt, 1969b), much data of importance to the culture has not been included. I have included, however, scraps of miscellaneous information, such as omens that I have culled from my field notes, and from my folk tale and dream texts. A special effort was made to acquire beliefs and knowledge regarding the fauna. This was supplied largely by Romin Teratol. Entries containing such ethnographic information may be found by searching the English index where the English equivalents of these entries are marked by an asterisk. Since the definitions of all Tzotzil generic plant names are accompanied by ethno- graphic data, they are not so marked.

In the few cases where ambiguities occur, reference should be made to the "Tzotzil-English" section. Tzotzil-English Pictograph of Lorenzo (Codex Mexicanus).

If a person is too choosy buying corn (smelling it and picking out the rotten kernels), or if he discards or burns corn, it is thought that the corn's soul /c'ulel/ will complain to the earth lord and to the gods in heaven. The offender soon will become destitute or will be punished in hell. If the corn's soul departs, then one's supply will be exhausted quickly, but if its soul remains, the com will last for a long time. The corn's soul is said to be male. Only highland corn is used for divination. A sick person eats only white corn, lest he be struck by mahbenal. White corn is most preferred by ladino buyers.

Highland "plant" Most Zinacantecs grow ge- raniums in their yards. The slips are planted by men and women at the beginning of the rainy season. As a remedy for children's fever sores, a handful of leaves are chewed. They are "medium". For a ma- jor curing ceremony, a large basket of geraniums is required to dec- orate the crosses. For a minor ceremony a small basket is required. * Three geraniums are brewed together with the other ingredients of "flower water" for bathing patients and stewards' coffers, cf. eis ")uc, tilil. In order to recover a person's soul, the shaman beats the ground, where the soul allegedly has been lost, with oak, yellow pine, and ge- ranium sprigs. Sour orange leaves and geranium blooms are gathered by the wedding petitioner /hpacol/, bound in bouquets, and distrib- uted to the wedding guests a: the dance. For the bi-weekly flower changes, the stewards provide one large basket of geraniums. (23)-The geraniums provided by the senior stewards are used to decorate the Church of St. Lawrence, while the geraniums provided by the junior stewards are used to decorate the Church of St. Sebastian. One small basket is needed to decorate the steward's altar. (l)-One large basket is provided by the stewards-royal every other Saturday to decorate the Chapel of Lord Esquipulas. One medium-sized basket is required by the elders every other Saturday to decorate the altar of the grand alcalde. On Lenten Fridays, Wednesday in Holy Week, and on Good Friday each steward provides a small basket of geraniums and may- weed flowers that are tied to the saints' litters. (23)-This basket is pre- sented on Lenten Fridays, Tuesday in Holy Week, and Good Friday. (l)-On Good Friday, the elders, holy elders, and any stewards, en- sign-bearers, or former elders who so desire offer a small basket with candles, geraniums and mayweed at the base of the cross in the Church of St. Lawrence. (23)-On Pentecost each steward provides a small basket of geraniums and sakramentual nicim. On the fiesta of Our Lady of the Rosary and on All Souls' Day, one small basket of geraniums and aztec marigolds is provided by each steward. For the First Posada each steward brings a small basket of geraniums and sedum to decorate the litters of Joseph and Mary. On the Seventh Posada one small basket of geraniums is provided by each steward for the roof of the creche. (RML)-The roof of the creche has a verti- cal row of geraniums, separating rows of sedum, mountain palm, air pine, and holly fem. Three geraniums are tied to the cross on the roof of every new house. Geraniums are used to decorate house entrance crosses on all major fiestas. They are used to decorate the well crosses on the Finding of the Holy Cross. eahal ni?imaltik, nphr(aj & n)5. large expanse of geraniums. eahal nicimtik, nphr(aj & n)5. expanse of geraniums. ?Jik'iik'-loian eahal nicim, nphr(aj/aj & Ucpd/ & nphr/aj & n/).

At the same 124 SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ANTHROPOLOGY / NUMBER 19 time, contact with his saliva, heated from years of eating chili, reput- edly will cause the rattlesnake to swell and die. Alternately, he or a friend may seize the snake and wrap it around the victim's waist to transfer the "cold winds" to the snake and so render it immobile. The snake's skin may be sold for belts. Rattlesnake skin, being very "hot", may be kept for binding a broken bone or a severe muscular ache. To speed a long and arduous delivery, rattlesnake grease may be rubbed on the mother's belly or she may drink a cup of water in which a rattlesnake's rattle has been boiled. This is believed to heat the woman's body. Women grease their hair with its fat to make their hair grow, but it is said that when the women sleep, their hair rustles like a snake, perhaps because the snake's soul has arrived there.

(RML)- Because the plurality of Tzotzil names for the same species of pine cannot be sorted out intelligently on the basis of present knowledge, the ethnographic information for all but k'uk' toh has been consol- idated here. The trunk is used for house mainposts, wall poles of wooden houses, common rafters (sixteen for a large house, eight to ten for a small house), A-frame bars (six), roof rods (four or eight), lintels, doors, shelves, planks (for attics, corn bins, and beds), benches, chairs, tables, chests, coffers, coffins, lamp stands, metate platforms, gates, crosses, almud measures, adobe molds, spoons, fence posts, and firewood. The bark is used for making charcoal, burning lime, firing tile and brick. The trunk and roots are used for torches. The tips are a basic ingredient of "flower water', used to bathe patients, sacrificial chickens, and coffers. They are "medium" Twenty-four tips are re- quired for a major or minor curing ceremony; three to shield the can- dles at each of the three churches, at each of the four mountain shrines, and before the house cross. Three tips are needed for the wand used by the shaman to beat the earth when recalling a lost soul. Pine tops are used to decorate all the crosses visited during a curing ceremony, on Holy Cross Day, and during the annual renewal cere- monies. The house cross is decorated with three pine tops at each ma- jor fiesta. The grave cross is so decorated at the funeral and on All Souls' Day. Two pine tops are used to flank the entrance to the cere- monial bed. For each flower change, the senior steward in charge decorates his house cross with three tops. The junior steward provides four tops to decorate the house altar and thirty-six tops to decorate the crosses. One pine tree is provided by the senior stewards and an- other by the junior stewards to flank the cross on the night of Maun- dy Thursday. Eighteen poles are provided by the stewards of Our Lady of the Rosary on the Seventh Posada to form the frame of the creche. Pine needles are needed to decorate the graves on All Souls' Day, to strew on the floors of the churches and the religious officials' houses. One net of pine needles is provided by the senior steward in charge of the flower change, for his house. Each of the stewards in charge provides one bagful for the church, while the others provide two small baskets of pine needles. One bag is provided by both stew- ards of the Holy Cross for Maundy Thursday. All stewards except the senior steward of Our Lady of the Rosary provide one bag for the fiesta of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

EPILOGUE k'usi yepal li yo kee, li yo hti^e, kahval, mi h-p'el sa van yec, mi h-p'el sa van mu yecuk, mi h-p'el sa van mu hna^be smelol, mi h-p'el sa van mu hna^be stohol, k'u s^elan iheak ta vun, iheak ta e'ib, ti yo k'ope, ti yo rasone, c'ul-pertonaluk, c'ul-lesensyauk, t anicim ba, t anicim sat, kahval. This is the sum of my humble mouth, My humble lips, My Lord, If there be one word true. And another word false, If its nature I misread, If its essence I misread, As I put to paper, As I put in writing, The lordly word, The lordly thought, May there be holy pardon, And divine forgiveness, Before Thy beauteous face, Before Thy beauteous eyes, My Lord. R.M.L. U.S. Government Printing Office: 1975 0?524-167 Publication in Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Manuscripts for serial publications are accepted by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to substantive review, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums. Non-Smith- sonian authors should address inquiries to the appropriate department. If submission is invited, the following format requirements of the Press will govern the preparation of copy. (An instruction sheet for the preparation of illustrations is available from the Press on request.) Copy must be typewritten, double-spaced, on one side of standard white bond paper, with 1%" top left margins, submitted in ribbon copy with a carbon or duplicate, and accompanied by the original artwork. Duplicate copies of all material, including illustrations, should be retained by the author. There may be several paragraphs to a page, but each page should begin with a new paragraph. Number consecutively all pages, including title page, abstract, text, literature cited, legends, and tables. The minimum length is 30 pages of typescript and illustrations. The title should be complete and clear for easy indexing by abstracting services. Include an abstract as an introductory part of the text. Identify the author on the first page of text with an unnumbered footnote that includes his professional mailing address. An index, if required, may be supplied by the author when he returns page proof. For references within the text, use the author-date system: "(Jones 1910)" or "Jones (1910)." If the reference is expanded, abbreviate the data: "Jones (1910:122, pi. 20: fig. 1)." Simple tabulations in the text (e.g., columns of data) may carry headings or not, but they should not contain rules. Formal tables must be submitted as pages separate from the text, and each table, no matter how large, should be pasted up as a single sheet of copy. Use the metric system instead of (or in addition to) the English system. Illustrations (line drawings, maps, photographs, shaded drawings) can be intermixed through- out the printed text. They will be termed Figures and should be numbered consecutively; however, if a group of figures is treated as a single figure, the individual components should be indicated by lowercase italic letters on the illustration, in the legend, and in text references: "Figure 9b." If illustrations (usually tone photographs) are printed separately from the text as full pages on a different stock of paper, they will be termed Plates, and individual components should be lettered (Plate 9b) but may be numbered (Plate 9: figure 2). Never combine the numbering system of text illustrations with that of plate illustrations. Submit all legends on pages separate from the text and not attached to the artwork. In the bibliography (usually called "Literature Cited"), spell out book, journal, and article titles, using initial caps with all words except minor terms such as "and, of, the." (For capitaliza- tion of titles in foreign languages, follow the national practice of each language.) Underscore (for italics) book and journal titles. Use the colon-parentheses system for volume, number, and page citations: "10(2) :5-9." Spell out such words as "figures" and "plates" (or "pages" when used alone). For free copies of his own paper, a Smithsonian author should indicate his requirements on "Form 36" (submitted to the Press with the manuscript). A non-Smithsonian author will receive 50 free copies; order forms for quantities above this amount with instructions for payment will be supplied when page proof is forwarded.
