Dakelh Ne Khunik Yats'ulhduk means “we will speak like our ancestors.” It uses modern technology to continue the oral traditions of Dakelh learning and develop understanding of the ancestral language of Dakelh peoples.
With this app, you will learn to speak Dakelh in a central, regional dialect spoken by members of Ts’il Kaz Koh, Stellat’en and Nadelh Whut’en, three First Nations communities located in Central B.C. Recordings of over 900 Dakelh words are accessible through recognizable images of things like body parts, animals and common phrases.
It is designed as an elementary-level learning tool for anyone of any age who has little to no knowledge of the language, or who would like to be able to improve their Dakelh vocabulary and pronunciation.
This app was developed in collaboration between the language and cultural departments of Ts’il Kaz Koh, Stellat’en and Nadleh Whut’en, with the
invaluable contributions of community members who lent their voices to the recordings. The project was fully funded by the Pathways Forward Agreement, an agreement made between the Province of British Columbia and the Carrier Sekani Tribal Council on behalf of the Carrier Sekani First Nations.
