     Extractions: Preserving and promoting American Indian languages Welcome to Native Languages of the Americas! We are a small non-profit organization dedicated to the survival of Native American languages, particularly through the use of Internet technology. Our website is not beautiful. Probably, it never will be. But this site has inner beauty, for it is, or will be, a compendium of online materials about more than 800 indigenous languages of the Western Hemisphere and the people that speak them. Alphabetical master list of Native American languages , with links to specific information about each language and its native speakers.

We are a non-profit organization working to preserve and promote American Indian languages, particularly through the use of Internet technology. Our main Native American Language website contains information and links about dozens of American Indian tribes and their native languages, including vocabulary sets and soundfiles. Although these pages are rich in information, they are also long and complicated, and it can be hard for non-native children to gather facts from them. Due to the many emails we receive every week asking us for Native American information for school or homeschooling reports, we have launched a special "Facts For Kids" project to provide online information about American Indians in an easy-to-read question and answer format, with links we feel are especially accessible to all ages. We encourage students, especially older kids, to look through the rest of our pages to get the best feel for the American Indian cultures they are studying. Before you start This website may look a little bit boring to you at first glance. There are no animations, no games, no continuously loading flute music and no illustrations (though there are many links to good illustrations). This is important so that our pages can load faster and work for everyone's computers, including the older computers that many American Indian kids use. Native Americans are not extinct. As of the year 2000, there are more than three million Native American people in Canada and the US combinedincluding more than a million children. Native American kids have real-life hopes and real-life problems, just like other kids do. They may take part in traditional Indian dances, or they may be Britney Spears fans, or both. They probably don't live in tepees, any more than non-native kids live in log cabins. And sometimes, they have to do their homework on the Internet. You are sharing this website with each other. Please be respectful neighbors.

     Extractions: Native American language index Native American culture index What's new on our site today! Setting the Record Straight (Infrequently Asked Questions) There is a lot of very good information about native peoples of America and their languages out there on the Internet. Unfortunately, there is also a lot of garbage. Some of it poses as scholarship. We have strived to include links to as much useful information as possible on our website. However, we are trying to present a correct resource here. Though we have linked to websites which take different positions on legitimate disagreements of theory or history (Was Michigamean a Siouan language? Did Pocahontas really save John Smith's life?), we have not linked to anything we know is substantially incorrect, nor to claims which are unsupported by any fact. Instead, we would like to correct some of the myths, mistakes, and just plain made-up stories of the Internet on this page. Aren't all Amerindian languages related?

128. International Journal Of American Linguistics
     A world forum for the study of all the languages native to North, Central, and South America. Inaugurated by Franz Boas in 1917, IJAL concentrates on the investigation of linguistic data and on the presentation of grammatical fragments and other documents relevant to Amerindian languages.

129. Stabilizing Indigenous Languages: Status Of Native American Language Endangermen
     So, perhaps twothirds of native North american languages are still around. That is an heroic achievement considering the odds that they have faced.

     Extractions: S peaking of the sacredness of things, I honestly believe, as a linguist who is supposed to view languages as objects of scientific study, that somehow or other they elude us, because every language has its own divine spark of life. Philosophers have said that languages are, in fact, forms of life. I believe that. As I have said before, a hundred linguists working for a hundred years could not get to the bottom of a single language. I never heard any linguist disagree with that statement. Yes and a hundred Navajo linguists working a hundred years on Navajo still, I am sure you would all admit, would not get to the bottom of Navajo. It certainly would help, though, if there were a hundred Navajo linguists working a hundred years on Navajo. Let us hope that Navajo and other such languages will be around for a hundred years. How much longer, though, will these remaining languages survive? That concern brings me here to Flagstaff, because it is up to us more than anybody else to help save these languages. No one today is actively punishing people, as far as I know, for speaking their language in school. Now people are losing their languages further, because they have been brainwashed for generations by English-only policy and pressure in the schools to give up their languages, unnecessarily, in the process of learning English. For their languages, they have been turned into their own worst enemies.

     Extractions: Kreolera Creoles When speakers of different languages mix, a pidgin may arise as a form of communication. A pidgin is a language that mixes elements of other languages with simple codes. Sometimes, children grow up in a pidgin environment, and that language becomes their native tongue. After that, a creole is born, and the language fills all the functions of any other given language. Creoles are not dialects or half-langauges full of errors, but fully gramatical languages, complete communication tools for the speakers. There are Creoles in several parts of the world, but they are seldom recognised as full-grown languages.
