[edit] Southwestern vs West

Just to note, and I may be able to dig up a cite somewhere, perhaps in Terry Glavin's book on Nemaiah but otherwise in an uncitable personal correspondence with him, that in Chilcotin Country parlance the Chilko Lake area is the "West Chilcotin"; presumably the Anahim-Nimpo area would be, then, the North Chilcotin? (he didn't say that); this came up in a discussion of the inappropriateness of the name South Chilcotin when applied to the Bridge River Country as it has come to be, and why it was that Chilko/Nemaia wasn't the South Chilcotin, but rather, according to the way folks talk, the West Chilcotin, whatever all the rest is; "west" I guess perhaps because it's a left turn off an otherwise northwestwards-bearing road that gets you there; vaguely in the direction of the sun, albeit actually southwest (musta been the time of year). I'm sure someone from up there will eventually be by here and can answer this; and like I said if it's in Terry's book it's citable, if it was something I learned from him otherwise unfortunately it's not. BTW when there's a Brittany Triangle article it should go in the "See also" here.Skookum1 06:18, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
