Completion of Eyak (ISO 693-3 eya) Grammar, Dictionary, Texts

Michael Krauss 博士的这个项目将完成 Eyak 语言现有材料的记录和演示，该语言于 2008 年最后一位母语使用者去世后灭绝。迈克尔·克劳斯 (Michael Krauss) 博士将其职业生涯的大部分时间都集中在与剩下的埃雅克语使用者一起，详细记录他们的语言。正如一位评论家所描述的那样，克劳斯的作品具有最高的质量。埃雅克语是一种重要的语言，因为它占据了阿萨帕斯坎语和特林吉特语之间的位置，对埃雅克语的全面分析将有助于理解北美和亚洲之间的语言关系。该项目的重点是归档现有材料并完成文本和语法的词典、翻译和转录，以供学者和 Eyak 社区等未来访问和使用。

This project by Dr. Michael Krauss will complete the documentation and presentation of existing materials on the Eyak language, which became extinct in 2008 when the last Native speaker passed away. Dr. Michael Krauss has focused much of his career working with the remaining speakers of Eyak recording their language in great detail. Krauss' work is, as one reviewer described it, of the highest quality. Eyak is an important language because it occupies the space between Athapaskan and Tlingit and a full analysis of Eyak will contribute to an understanding of the linguistic relationships between North America and Asia. The project focuses on archiving existing materials and completing the dictionary, translation and transcription of texts and grammar for the future access and use of scholars and the Eyak community alike.
