Ebook: Webster’s Lakhota - English Thesaurus Dictionary

ICON Classics, 2008. — 35 p.This is an English thesaurus designed for Lakhota speakers who wish to better understand the ambiguities and richness of the English language. The first chapter is a full English thesaurus organized by 182 Lakhota subject words. For each Lakhota subject word, one or more corresponding English subject words (translations) are provided. Synonyms are then given for the English translations for all relevant parts of speech (even in cases where the Lakhota subject word has a unique part of speech). This process results in over 3805 English synonyms.
The second chapter gives an index of these English synonyms back to the Lakhota subject words (a potentially useful chapter to English speakers
interested in basic Lakhota vocabulary). The third chapter has short vocabulary lists organized by parts-of-speech. English teachers or students can use these bilingual lists to create flash cards, basic lesson plans, and English as a Second Language (ESL) study lists.
