Information
has glosseng: Shoshonean is a 19th century term for what is now called the Northern group of Uto-Aztecan languages, q.v. "Shoshonean" was used by linguists in the 19th and early 20th centuries who had not yet been convinced of the genetic relationship among the Uto-Aztecan languages. These linguists instead discussed three groups--Shoshonean, Sonoran (the Southern Uto-Aztecan languages minus Aztec), and Aztec. The validity of Uto-Aztecan was demonstrated by Edward Sapir in the 1920s and the term "Shoshonean" fell out of use.
