  • Words Should Be Fun: Scrabble As a Tool for Language Preservation in Tuvan and Other Local Languages1
    Vol. 4 (2010), pp. 213-230 http://nflrc.hawaii.edu/ldc/ http://hdl.handle.net/10125/4480 Words should be fun: Scrabble as a tool for language preservation in Tuvan and other local languages1 Vitaly Voinov The University of Texas at Arlington One small but practical way of empowering speakers of an endangered language to maintain their language’s vitality amidst a climate of rapid globalization is to introduce a mother-tongue version of the popular word game Scrabble into their society. This paper examines how versions of Scrabble have been developed and used for this purpose in various endangered or non-prestige languages, with a focus on the Tuvan language of south Siberia, for which the author designed a Tuvan version of the game. Playing Scrab- ble in their mother tongue offers several benefits to speakers of an endangered language: it presents a communal approach to group literacy, promotes the use of a standardized orthography, creates new opportunities for intergenerational transmission of the language, expands its domains of usage, and may heighten the language’s external and internal prestige. Besides demonstrating the benefits of Scrabble, the paper also offers practical suggestions concerning both linguistic factors (e.g., choice of letters to be included, cal- culation of letter frequencies, dictionary availability) and non-linguistic factors (board de- sign, manufacturing, legal issues, etc.) relevant to producing Scrabble in other languages for the purpose of revitalization. 1. INTRODUCTION.2 The past several decades have seen globalization penetrating even the most remote corners of the world, bringing with them popular American exports such as Coca-Cola and Hollywood movies.

  • Can You Change MAN to APE? Computers Can
    Can a Computer Solve a Word Puzzle? - or - Can You Change MAN to APE? Computers can add; they can store numbers; they can solve equations. But word puzzles ask for abilities we don't usually associate with computers. Can we apply computational thinking to these unusual problems? To do so, we have to understand how we solve these puzzles, and identify those parts of our thought processes that can be \explained" to a computer. Computational Thinking In this discussion, we will look at a simple word puzzle. If we think about how we solve such puzzles, we can identify some mental pro- cesses (human thinking) that a computer would have to mimic: • memory: we need to know a lot of words; • imagination: we need to imagine possible changes to a word; • evaluation: given several possible changes, we need to choose the one most likely to take us to our goal; • backtracking: when a choice doesn't work out, we need to backtrack and search for an alternate choice; If we want a computer to solve these puzzles, we have to understand how we do them first, and then try to translate our thinking into computational thinking. DOUBLETS: Invented by Lewis Carroll DOUBLETS: Invented by Lewis Carroll Lewis Carroll, who wrote the children's book \Alice in Wonderland", was very fond of word games and puzzles. He asked a riddle that no one has solved: Why is a raven like a writing desk?. He wrote poems like Jabberwocky full of nonsense words, a few of which were absorbed into English: burbled and gallumphing.

We examine four games and puzzles and show algorithmic as well as intractability results.
