This is the southernmost country of a language family that Eloise Jelinek proposed had no noun-verb distinction. The barred lambda is used to represent lateral affricates in languages from this country such as Lushootseed. A language from this country uses verb stems to classify objects by shape, and has lightning and humans at the top of its animacy hierarchy. The Penutian and Hokan families were hypothesized by Alfred (*) Kroeber, who worked with Ishi, the last member of this country’s (10[1])Yahi people. Benjamin (10[1])Whorf controversially claimed that a language from this country had no concept of linear time. A language (-5[1])from this country uses a unique syllabary that borrows from European scripts but does not represent the same sounds. For 10 points, name this country where Hopi and Cherokee are spoken. ■END■ (10[2])
