Lower Tanana Dictionary and Literacy

这个为期一年的项目利用明托-涅纳纳阿萨巴斯坎现有的大量学术成果，开发了一本英语-明托袖珍词典，测试其结构，出版它，并通过阿拉斯加州明托村的社区研讨会教授其用法。材料和讲习班将使Minto社区成员直接参与词典的编制和建立发音档案记录。词典、词典的开发和使用将促进社会各界接触他们的语言，并有望激发人们继续使用词典的兴趣。

ABSTRACTBCE #0504247This one-year project uses the large body of existing scholarship on the Minto-Nenana Athabascan to develop an English-Minto pocket dictionary, test its structure, publish it and teach its use through community workshops in the village of Minto, Alaska. Materials and workshops will directly involve the Minto community members in the development of the dictionary and in the creation of an archival record of pronunciation. The dictionary, its development and its use will stimulate the community's access to their language and hopefully stimulate interest in its continued use.
