They contend that the information requested on the home-language survey that parents are commonly asked to fill out when they enroll their child in a public school can be misleading or misused.

Title: Books: Speaking Sitimaxa - A Learner's Grammar and Reader
Body: From http://linguistlist.org/issues/21/21-877.html Speaking Sitimaxa - A Learner's Grammar and Reader Author: Julian Granberry Publisher: Lincom As a result of inroads from French and English speakers, Sitimaxa, the language of the Chitimacha people of southern Louisiana over the past 7,000 years, lost its last fluent speaker in 1940 at the death of Delphine Decloux. We are fortunate, however, in having wax cylinder recordings of her speech as well as that of Chief Benjamin Paul, who died in 1934. From these recordings, gathered by the linguists Morris Swadesh and his wife Mary Haas, it has been possible to accurately reconstruct both the phonology, or sound system, of the language and its grammatical structure. The author of the present volumes in the three-volume Speaking Sitimaxa (Chitimacha) series, working directly with Drs. Swadesh and Haas and their recorded materials, prepared the present grammar, reader, and dictionary of Mrs.Decloux's and Chief Paul's speech in the late 1930's and the 1940's.
