Abstract
This paper is an informal summary preview of Eyak structure, with a minimum of exemplification and a maximum of structural tables and diagrams. Included are a number of historical and comparative remarks with reference to Athapaskan and Tlingit. There are still three persons capable of serving adequately as informants for Eyak. The following is a summary report of the results of field-work with these persons, up to July 10, 1964, on a grant from the National Science Foundation. The phonology of Eyak is now well understood, as is, more surprisingly, the verb. In addition, the list of morphemes is approaching exhaustiveness. The consonant inventory is shown in Table I:
