Yogad Kan: Preserving Language and Identity in International Spaces
Presentation for Linguistics 1100: Mysteries of Language
Carleton University
Ottawa, Canada
March 22, 2017

It's about time people hear about Yogad! Here's the first-ever presentation I did about the work that I do at a class in my university. I want to thank Dr. Lev Blumenfeld for the opportunity, friends and family who came to support, and all the kind people who listened and asked me the right questions. I also want to thank the awesome people at Carleton University Online Learning who gave me access to this recording.

I was super nervous, so I made a couple of mistakes: The person who worked with my great-grandfather in publishing the Yogad dictionary was actually not from SIL. However, SIL helped produce the Yogad primer. Sorry for the mix up.

As always: Let's go save a language!

Good job Chareena, it's very important to preserve the Yogad dialect because it signifies our identity as Echaguenos. I wish my children could speak and understand the dialect.
