I tried Chinuk and got nothing. When I tried Chinook there were
some hits, the first being to the Duployan Script (the subject of
shorthands, missionaries, and syllabaries is worth a beer on its
own), which wouldn't be of the slightest use. When I clicked on
the "sources" field I see lots of Omniglot and Ethnolog and ISO
639 and Glottolog and OLAC and UNESCO links. Nothing useful.<br>
<br>
But none to the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, which is the
recognized authority for modern Chinuk, and oddly enough, how I
learned Chinuk.<br>
<br>
I also tried Abenaki and got another set of useless links to
ISO639:3 code points. Nothing pointing to either the Odenak or
Becancour Reserves, PQ, Canada, where Western Abenaki is taught,
nor to Old Town or Indian Island or Pleasant Point, Maine, USA,
where Eastern Abenaki is taught.<br>
<br>
Next I tried Siksika, since I happen to have the Siksikai'powahsin
series for Siksika language learners (and know the consultant to
the project ), again, just a bunch of ISO 639 and similarly
useless "sources". Nothing from Treaty 7, nor from the Montana
located Tribe (Old Sun School, etc.).<br>
<br>
While I wouldn't mind assistance, I'd prefer the assistance of
someone working in the field of teaching a native language, or
with ... what do we say ... a relationship with the community.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Eric<br>
