Sealaska Heritage Institute's Dictionary of Shm'algyack is the product of years of documentation of the Shm'algyack (Tsimshian) language with assistance from fluent Elders. It's a must-have resource for language learners and for people who are interested in learning more about the Tsimshian culture.
The Dictionary of Shm’algyack includes the majority of the common vocabulary and will be invaluable to beginning and intermediate students of the language. Sentence examples with sound will guide the user along the path of a deeper understanding of how our ancestors thought and their use of words.
The Tsimshian Shm’algyack dictionary was compiled by Donna May and Tony Roberts who worked with the late Ira Booth, Lillian Buchert, Frances Duncan, Bernard Guthrie, Solomon Guthrie, Russell Hayward, Harold Hudson, and Charles Ryan, all of whom initiated the project. Mel and Ruth Booth, John Dalton, Doris Reece, and Conrad Ryan, Sr. contributed their knowledge to complete the project.
Published by Sealaska Heritage Institute, 2010. Funded through a grant from the Administration for Native Americans. Cover art by Robert Davis Hoffmann.
