I saw a good description of it's polysyntheticism on the net once, but I don't remember where. Mohawk and Cheyenne are good examples of polysynthetic languages, though. Most of Kûtêlk‡u and N!à's grammars is based on Mohawk, though there are elements from the Khoisan languages as well as other sources in the grammar as well.
