Quechan is one of 74 native languages across the nation on the brink of extinction. To combat the problem the ANA awarded Quechan with a grant to help document, teach, and restore the language of their people.
This is wonderful. I graduated from San Pasqual in 1965 & even then the language was disappearing. At that time women still had the blue chin tattoos. Glad to see that they are serious about keeping the language going.
It does not have to be, only from one region the preservation of language has to be worldwide in the five continents and mainly use this project to bring dialects that have been extinct over time and which are not spoken by anyone else to be recovered and used by People in europe, asia, north and south america, oceania and africa have to be rescued extinct languages and preserve both those that disappeared and those that are to disappear.
