Abstract
The Salishan language family consists of 23 languages, most of them with further dialectal divisions. The family is situated in the present-day Canadian province of British Columbia and the U.S. states of Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana. It has attracted interest from linguists since the early years of research on the indigenous languages of North America. The languages are well known for their phonetic and phonological complexity, with large numbers of consonants, and also for their rich morphology.
