Mohawk English in the medical interview.

P Woolfson1, V Hood, R Secker-Walker, A C Macauley.   

Abstract

Mohawk English uses metalinguistic cues that reflect Iroquoian grammatical and sociolinguistic patterning. Although phrases like "It seems to me" are common in many varieties of English, Mohawk English speakers use these words and phrases in subtly different ways from other speakers of English. These differences could lead to misinterpretation by health care providers.
