A computer-generated dictionary of proto-Algonquian / by John Hewson. : NM95-21/125E

This proto-language dictionary, which contains 4,066 entries and an extensive index of English glosses, represents an interesting development in proto-language reconstruction technology, having been done entirely on computer. The input data consisted of some 30,000 lexical items from the four conservative Algonquian languages used by Leonard Bloomfield to reconstruct the sound system of Proto-Algonquian. Computer programmes were used to find cognates, and to reconstruct and build the final dictionary.--Abstract
