INTRODUCTION.
The
following
series
of
texts was
recorded
by me during the
years
I900
and
i
90I
in various villages on the Pacific Coast of the Chukchee
Peninsula,
between
Mariinsky Post and
Uini'sak.
A
number of
tales
are here
given
with
interlinear
translation
and free translation. The
attempt
has been made
to
render
the
texts as
accurately
as
possible, but
it has
been found
necessary
to
omit
in
the
translations
many of the
conjuctions and
interjections which
are
quite
numerous
in
Chukchee
and which often appear in extended
groups.
Most of the
tales
have no native
names.
For
these,
titles indicating
the
contents have been added. All such titles
are
placed in parentheses.
Only
a
few
tales
are
named,
like
"The
Raven-Tale,"
"The
Polygamist-Tale'
and others.
Words added
in the
translations
for
the
sake of
clearness
are
placed
in
parentheses.
Literal
translation
of
Chukchee
words
or
phrases
are
enclosed
in
brackets.
The
following
alphabet
has been
used
for
transcribing
Chukchee
sounds:

Very
long
and
very
short vowels
are
indicated
by
the
macron
and
breve
respectively.
The
diphthongs
are
formed
by
combining
any
of
the
vowels
with
i
and
u.
Thus:
