I love the idea of capturing the language for the future, but it’s so sad to think of a spoken language dying.
Happens all the time. I haven’t clicked on the link yet, saw your comment first, but I’m curious to see what they’re doing here. There is a tribe near me who teach their language in schools and there are signs all over the place up there with the native names for places on them. The vast majority speak English as their primary language but I think it’s cool how they’re keeping Salish alive and using it to connect to their history and culture and as an educational opportunity.
