dᶻidᶻəlal’ič (Landing Site to Seattle) Lushootseed pronunciation 

dᶻidᶻəlal’ič is Lushootseed for Landing Site to Seattle. Our main conference room at OPCD has been renamed in Lushootseed as a way to increase Indigenous representation and decolonize our spaces. We are intentionally relying on audio pronunciation in order to fully immerse ourselves in learning Lushootseed. The names were carefully selected by Lushootseed language keepers to highlight cultural values that align with the work we do at OPCD. More information about the Lushootseed Language Revitalization Project coming soon.
