In this podcast, language educator Priscilla Colón discusses reviving Taíno, the language that was the most common language throughout the Caribbean through the late 15th century. After colonization, Taíno was eventually replaced by Spanish and other European languages. Links to articles discussing Taíno culture and a YouTube video introducing viewers to the language are also provided. This resource would be useful for those engaged in language revitalization work, especially with Taíno and other sleeping languages, or for teachers and learners of Spanish, English, and French studying the effects of European colonization on languages and multilingualism in the Caribbean.
