The Alaskan Haida Phrasebook is the first book of its kind and the most comprehensive phrasebook to date for any Alaska Native language. It will be a great aid to new learners.
The Alaskan Haida Phrasebook was compiled over a
four-year period as part of SHI's ongoing Haida language project. The more
than 4,000 sentences in this book cover some of the most common topics of
Haida conversation, such as food, family, weather, health, traveling,
fishing, working, music, and many others.
It was written by Dr. Erma Lawrence, one of the few
remaining fluent speakers of Alaskan Haida, and edited by
linguist Dr. Jordan Lachler.
Published by Sealaska Heritage Institute, 2010. Funded through a grant from
the U.S. Department of Education and support from Sealaska Corporation.
