| Title | New Lillooet Salish Text Collection w/ Audio CD |
| Body | From http://www.linguistics.ubc.ca/UBCWPL University of British Columbia Working Papers in Linguistics would like to announce the publication of a new collection of texts recorded and transcribed from Laura Thevarge, a speaker of the Lower dialect of St'át'imcets (a.k.a. Lillooet Salish), an endangered language of British Columbia. The texts are true stories from Laura's rich and varied life experiences, and exemplify her dynamic oratory style and her deep knowledge of the language. There are perhaps as few as 50 speakers remaining, and so this may indeed be one of the last such collections. The volume is approx. 120 pages, contains 12 stories each divided into 3 sections: St'át'imcets transcription, English translation, and a complete interlinear gloss. There is an accompanying CD with 12 tracks, containing the original recordings from which the texts were transcribed. The volume costs $15 CAD/U.S. plus relevant shipping costs. Please contact UBC Working Papers at ubcwpl@gmail.com if you are interested in obtaining a copy. |
