Abstract

The last fluent speaker of pentl’ach passed away in the 1940’s, and recent work has been undertaken by pentl’ach descendants to reawaken the language. This paper discusses how the reawakening pentl’ach team invited participants in LING 431/531 (Researching) Community-based initiatives in language revitalization, to develop projects to support their work.
