This award will extend the documentation of the Ioway, Otoe-Missouria language that the PI, Jimm Goodtracks, has carried out over the past four decades, and that resulted in a 9000 word lexicon and primary and intermediate level teaching materials. This project will create an enhanced encyclopedic dictionary with detailed illustrations of word usage. This resource will be made available on CDs, in print, and on internet websites so that it can be used by community members and scholars alike. Further, it will be a major resource in language revitalization efforts now being undertaken by individual tribal communities, as it will provide information about the spoken language of the Elders and also much cultural information not readily available or familiar to the present generation. These efforts are of great significance, since the last two fluent speakers of the Ioway, Otoe-Missouria language died ten years ago.

该奖项将扩展 PI Jimm Goodtracks 在过去四十年中对爱荷华州奥托-密苏里州语言的记录，并最终形成了 9000 字的词典以及小学和中级教材。 该项目将创建一本增强型百科全书词典，其中包含单词用法的详细插图。 该资源将以 CD、印刷版和互联网网站的形式提供，以便社区成员和学者等可以使用。 此外，它将成为各个部落社区目前正在进行的语言振兴工作的主要资源，因为它将提供有关长辈口语的信息以及许多当代人不易获得或熟悉的文化信息。 这些努力意义重大，因为最后两位能流利使用爱荷华州奥托-密苏里语的人已于十年前去世。
