Wappo language
Wappo is an extinct language that was spoken in the Alexander Valley north of San Francisco by the Wappo Native Americans. The last fluent speaker, Laura Fish Somersal, died in 1990. Wappo's language death is attributed to the use of English in schools and economic situations such as the workplace.〔Sawyer, Jesse O., "Wappo studies" (1984). Survey Reports. Report #7.〕 According to Somersal, the name for the people and language is derived from the Spanish word ''guapo'', meaning "handsome" or "brave". The name for the people was originally Ashochimi.
Wappo is generally believed to be distantly related to the Yuki language, and is distinct largely due to Pomoan influence.
Paul Radin published the first texts on Wappo grammar in the 1920s. Jesse O. Sawyer published the "English-Wappo Vocabulary" in 1965 and continued to study Wappo grammar throughout his life. Other linguists who have contributed to the study of Wappo include William E. Elmendorf, Alice Shepherd, Sandra Thompson, Joseph Sung-Yul Park and Charles N. Li.〔
