Bakker, Peter (Researcher, Researcher, University of Aarhus, Denmark)
The Michif language is considered "impossible" as it uses French for nouns and Cree for verbs, and utilizes two sets of grammatical rules. This study uses historical research and fieldwork data to analyze the language, spoken by the descendants of French Canadian fur traders and Cree Indians.
