description:
This book contains significant cultural words and terms of the Gullah Culture. It is an atempt to promote a better undertstanding of past traditions and present day practices in preventing permanent loss of memory of those terms that are truly Gullah. Most of the terms are currently used in the everyday vocabulary of Gullah Speakers, while others have fallen into disuse but have been recalled for inclusion in the work. The content of this book is entirely based on Emory Campbell's experience of growing up Gullah on Hilton Head Island in the mid-20th Century before the Island was connected by a bridge to the mainland.
