UAA linguistic anthropologist Prof. Roy Mitchell describes fall 2011 survey class on Inuit-Unangan languages
by Kathleen McCoy |
For the first time ever, a survey class of Eskimo-Aleut languages of Alaska, Canada, Siberia and Greenland will be offered, with details on dialects, comparative phonology and grammar, reconstructing proto-Eskimo, literacy traditions and prospects for language survival.
In this short podcast, Roy Mitchell explains how the class came to be offered "planet-wide" through his Facebook outreach.
