释义

Mikasukin.adj.

Brit. /ˌmɪkəˈsuːki/, U.S. /ˌmɪkəˈsuki/
Inflections: Plural unchanged, Mikasukis.
Forms: 1700s Mackasooko, 1700s Mackasooky, 1700s Micasukee, 1700s Miccosooce, 1800s Mecosukee, 1800s Micasaukies (plural), 1800s Micasukey, 1800s Micasuky, 1800s Miccosakie, 1800s Miccosaukie, 1800s Miccosoukie, 1800s Miccossuky, 1800s Mickasaukies (plural), 1800s Mickassauky, 1800s Mikasuke, 1800s– Mickasuky, 1800s– Mikasuki, 1900s– Miccosukee.
Origin: From a proper name.
Etymology: < the name of a former town in the Creek Confederacy (see note), hence probably < Creek, but form and etymology unknown.The town now known as Miccosukee (Jefferson County, Florida) is not the town in question, although the town known in history as Old Mikasuki, near lake Miccosukee (Jefferson County, Florida), was the first known location of this town in Florida. The form Mikasuki is now commonly used for the language. Some members of the former people are now enrolled as members of the Seminole Tribe of Florida (traditionally speakers of Creek); others (who exclusively use the officially designated form Miccosukee) belong to the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida. The form Miccosukee is therefore limited in some contexts to those who are official members of the Miccosukee people, rather than covering all speakers of the language.
A. n.
1. A member of a North American Indian people formerly inhabiting north-western Florida.Some of the Mikasuki are now members of the Seminole people of Florida, while others are members of the Miccosukee.
