本文的第一部分是关于阿拉斯加州圣劳伦斯岛甘贝尔的尤皮克语言教学现状。问题开始后，主要的支持者和教师离开成功的尤皮克语言计划在甘贝尔学校已运行至少25年。联邦和州对教育的改变使该项目的运行更加困难，但学区和学校仍然保留着Yupik的工作人员，让他们把Yupik项目恢复到过去的样子。论文的第二部分是对最近的一个语言和出版项目的个人描述，该项目将西伯利亚古老的尤皮克民间故事翻译成英语并转录成尤皮克语，这些故事最初是以俄罗斯西里尔文为基础的尤皮克正字法记录和出版的，因此它们可以在课堂上使用。40年来，政治和社会界限阻止了来自美国和俄罗斯的尤皮克家庭的互动，但这所大学资助的项目允许了新的接触，并对书中包含的单词进行了调查，揭示了它们丢失的含义。
The first part of the paper is about the current status of Yupik language instruction in Gambell, Saint Lawrence Island (Alaska). Problems began after key supporters and teachers left the successful Yupik language program in Gambell schools which had been running for at least 25 years. Federal and state changes to education made it more difficult to run the program, but the school district and school still keep the Yupik staff to bring back their Yupik program as it used to be. The second part of the paper is a personal description of a recent language and publication project to translate into English and transcribe into Yupik old Siberian Yupik folk-stories originally recorded and published in Russian cyrillic-based Yupik orthography, so they could be used in the classroom. Political and social boundaries had prevented for 40 years Yupik families from America and Russia to interact, but this university funded project allowed new contacts, and investigations with elders on words included in the book revealed their lost meanings.
