Cheyenne language - Cheyenne language The Cheyenne language is a Native American language spoken in present-day Montana and Oklahoma, USA. It is part of the Algonquian language family. Like many Native American languages, it has complex agglutinative morphology. Phonology Cheyenne phonology is not exceptionally complex. While there are only three basic vowels, they can be pronounced in three ways: high pitch, low pitch, and voiceless[1]. The high and low pitches are phonemic, while vowel devoicing is governed by environmental rules, making voiceless vowels allophones of the voiced vowels. The digraph ‘ts’ represents assibilated /t/; a phonological rule of Cheyenne is that underlying /t/ becomes assibiliated before an /e/ (t > ts / __e). Therefore, ‘ts’ is not a separate phoneme, but an allophone of /t/. The standard Cheyenne orthography.

Johnson County War - surreptitiously branded, and thus taken. The large ranches, concerned about this practice, forbade their employees from owning cattle and aggressively defended against rustling. Attempts were made to exclude the smaller ranchers from participation in the annual roundup and apparently agents of the larger ranches killed several alleged rustlers. The large ranches were organized as the Wyoming Stock Growers Association and gathered socially as the Cheyenne Club in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Hiring guns from Texas, an expedition of 50 men was organized which proceeded by train from Cheyenne to Casper, Wyoming, then toward Johnson County intending to eliminate alleged rustlers and also apparently to replace the government in Johnson County. To prevent an alarm the telegraph lines out of Buffalo were cut. The expedition was accompanied by two newspaper reporters whose lurid accounts.

The village was set on fire and the women and children were killed as they attempted to flee.

In this and the succeeding campaign about 700 members of the tribe were killed including men taken captive. The tribe was disbanded and the survivors adopted by neighboring.

Indian Wars - and the discovery of gold on Cherokee land led to pressure on Native American lands. In 1830, Congress passed the Indian Removal Act that Jackson signed into law. The act was challenged successfully by the Cherokee Nation in 1832 in the US Supreme Court as Worcester v. Georgia, in 1832. Despite the Supreme Court decision, Jackson took no action to uphold the Court verdict, and in fact would openly defy it; he was quoted as saying "John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it!" As the court has no executive powers to enforce its decisions, Jackson's executive disregard of the court, marked a time when the Judicial branch of government was very weak. The state of Georgia held two land lotteries in 1835 to divide the Cherokee land,.
