  anlanote     = {Ts. offprint. Central Alaskan Yup'ik and Siberian Yupik are mutually unintelligible languages. This paper compares and contrasts these two languages. The lexical differences between them and some of the reasons for these differences are discussed. Phonological differences are presented showing how in some instances the first language has innovated where the second has not (and vice versa); or, to put it another way, the second displays as its spoken forms forms which are theoretical and underlying in the first (and vice versa), and in other instances the two languages have accomplished the same thing in two different ways.Sections include: non-loan lexicon, loanwords, demonstratives, postbases, endings, syntax, phonetics and phonemics, distribution of [y] vs.[z], prosody, morphophonemics, stem level stress conspiracies, vowel assimilation in CSY, and velar dropping},
