Tübatulabal[edit]
Etymology[edit]
- Probably from a Chumashan language. Compare Ineseño momoy. It should be noted, however, that many languages in Southern California and the Great Basin (but not Yokuts) have similar names, with the first syllable following the pattern: m + [back vowel] + [nasal] (for example, Gabrielino-Fernandeño, Luiseño manit, Serrano manitc)
Noun[edit]
