The
Ambiguity of the Word ‘Squirrel’: Swadesh asks for ‘squirrel’, to begin
with, in the part of the interview segment before the sound file which we have
online begins. The Grey Squirrel species
is an introduced species in Oregon, possibly introduced after Lolly had grown
up. When Swadesh goes on to ask for
‘chipmunk’, in the part of the interview segment which we actually do have
online, first Daisy and then Lolly say this word.
