Every year, we bid a sad farewell to wonderful graduating majors — like our remarkable seniors Harry Aaronson, Michelle Bennett, Naomi Farahan, Jordan Schiff and Margo Wagner. And every year, we are excited at the prospect of new majors entering the program; this fall, we’re particularly pleased that eight talented young individuals — many of them supported with generous scholarships — will be joining the JS B.A. class of 2023 from all over the USA, from Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Illinois, Nebraska, and Washington. But this year, “continuity and change” has a deeper resonance for the Program than usual. I can’t think of a stronger symbol of continuity than our celebration of Alvin Rosenfeld’s 50 years at IU. To prepare my remarks for the event, generously hosted by Sandra and Bob Borns in the gorgeous Grand Hall at Union Station – Crowne Plaza in Indianapolis, I looked back through the JS archives. I was struck again by what a remarkable achievement it was to invent this world-leading program in south central Indiana. Of course, it wasn’t Alvin’s work alone – many friends, donors, faculty, and staff played a part — and in April, so many of them were on Mark Roseman hand to share in the moment and to witness President Michael McRobbie bestowing on our founding director the President’s Medal for Excellence, IU’s most prestigious award.

  • Considerations for Non-Dominant Language Education in the Global South
    FIRE: Forum for International Research in Education Vol. 5, Iss. 3, 2019, pp. 12-28 LANGUAGE-IN-EDUCATION POLICIES AND INDIGENOUS LANGUAGE REVITALIZATION EFFORTS IN CANADA: CONSIDERATIONS FOR NON-DOMINANT LANGUAGE EDUCATION IN THE GLOBAL SOUTH Onowa McIvor1 University of Victoria, Canada Jessica Ball University of Victoria, Canada Abstract Indigenous languages are struggling for breath in the Global North. In Canada, Indigenous language medium schools and early childhood programs remain independent and marginalized. Despite government commitments, there is little support for Indigenous language-in-education policy and initiatives. This article describes an inaugural, country- wide, federally-funded, Indigenous-led language revitalization research project, entitled NE OL EW̱ (one mind-one people). The project brings together nine Indigenous partners to build a country-wide network and momentum to pressure multi-levels of government to honourȾ agreementsṈ enshrining the right of children to learn their Indigenous language. The project is documenting approaches to create new Indigenous language speakers, focusing on adult language learners able to keep the language vibrant and teach their language to children. The article reflects upon how this Northern emphasis on Indigenous language revitalization and country-wide networking initiative is relevant to mother tongue-based education and policy examples in the Global South. The article underscores the need for both community level initiatives (top-down) and government level policy and funding (bottom up) to support child and adult Indigenous language learning. Keywords: Indigenous language practices, language-in-education policies, policy reform, First Nations, Indigenous, Canada, Global North, Global South 1 Correspondence: Dr. Onowa McIvor, C/O Dept. of Indigenous Education, University of Victoria, PO Box 1700 STN CSC, Victoria BC V8W 2Y2; Email: [email protected] O.

  • Revivalistics Is Not Documentary Linguistics
    ISSN 2335-2019 (Print), ISSN 2335-2027 (Online) Darnioji daugiakalbystė | Sustainable Multilingualism | 18/2021 https://doi.org/10.2478/sm-2021-0001 Ghil’ad Zuckermann University of Adelaide, Australia REVIVALISTICS IS NOT DOCUMENTARY LINGUISTICS Summary. This article introduces a new field of enquiry called revivalistics, and explores its trans-disciplinarity and various ethical, aesthetic and utilitarian benefits. Revivalistics is an emerging global, trans-disciplinary field of enquiry studying comparatively and systematically the universal constraints and global mechanisms on the one hand (Zuckermann, 2003; 2009; 2020), and particularistic peculiarities and cultural relativist idiosyncrasies on the other, apparent in linguistic reclamation, revitalization and reinvigoration across various sociological backgrounds, all over the globe (Zuckermann, 2020; Zuckermann & Walsh, 2011; 2014). The article focuses on the crucial differences between revivalistics and documentary linguistics. It provides examples from the field that demonstrate the complexity of the revivalist’s work and how the revivalist’s work is distinct from that of the documentary linguist. Too many documentary linguists mislead themselves to believe that they can easily be revivalists too. But there are two crucial differences between revivalistics and documentary linguistics, which are at war between themselves: (1) Whereas documentary linguists put the language at the centre, revivalists put the language custodians at the centre. (2) Whereas in documentary linguistics the Indigenous/minority people have the knowledge of the language, in revivalistics the revivalist is the one with that knowledge. Given that the Aboriginal/minority people are the language custodians, and given that the language custodians are at the centre of the revivalistic enterprise, the revivalist must be extremely sensitive.

  • Decolonising Speech and Language Technology
    Decolonising Speech and Language Technology Steven Bird Northern Institute Charles Darwin University Abstract After generations of exploitation, Indigenous people often respond negatively to the idea that their languages are data ready for the taking. By treating Indigenous knowledge as a commodity, speech and language technologists risk disenfranchising local knowledge authorities, reenact- ing the causes of language endangerment. Scholars in related fields have responded to calls for decolonisation, and we in the speech and language technology community need to follow suit, and explore what this means for our practices that involve Indigenous languages and the communities who own them. This paper reviews colonising discourses in speech and language technology, and suggests new ways of working with Indigenous communities, and seeks to open a discussion of a postcolonial approach to computational methods for supporting language vitality. 1 Introduction So much of the templates, the guidelines, the university courses, have been created along the lines of a colonising language. Our task is to figure out how to be able to speak our languages, how to teach our languages, how to maintain our languages, how to normalise our languages, from our ways, from our perspective, from our point of view. – Lil’watul Lorna Williams, Lil’wat First Nation This is how Lorna Williams addressed 300 people at Language Technologies for All (Williams, 2019). We had been summoned to the UNESCO headquarters in Paris with these words: Everyone should have the possibility to get access to Language Technologies in his/her native languages, including Indigenous languages. The challenge is twofold: (i) preserving culture through language while (ii) allowing communication across languages.

  • Gamilaraay, a Sleeping Language of New South Wales, Australia
    Academic Journal 67 of Modern Zuzanna Bułat Silva Philology Uniwersytet Wrocławski, Instytut Filologii Romańskiej ISSN 2299-7164 Gamilaraay, a Sleeping Language of New South Wales, Vol. 7 (2018) s. 67–77 Australia Abstract The main aim of this paper is to present the situation of Gamilaraay, an Aboriginal language spoken in New South Wales, Australia, currently undergoing a revitalization (Giacon 2007) . After discussing the classification of the world’s languages according to their vitality, the author presents the language situation in Australia and offers a definition of revival linguistics (see Zuckermann & Walsh 2011), a new branch of linguistics as yet little known in Poland, justifying its relevance to the revitalization of Aboriginal languages. Special attention is given to the language situation in New South Wales, and to the specific revivalistic attempts undertaken by linguists there (Troy & Walsh 2010). Some morphological, syntactical and lexical features of Gamilaraay are described in order to show the complexities of language revival and problems revivalists have to face. Keywords: sleeping language, Gamilaraay, revival linguistics, language reclamation, linguistic diversity, language endangerment Acknowledgments I would like to sincerely thank John Giacon whose perceptive comments helped a lot to improve the final draft of this paper. Introduction The main aim of this paper is to present the situation of Gamilaraay, an Aboriginal language of Pama- Nyungan family once spoken in New South Wales and in southern Queensland, Australia, currently undergoing a revitalization (Giacon 2007, 2010, 2014). The methodological context for presenting Gamilaraay will be a new field of study calledrevival linguistics (Zuckermann & Walsh 2011, Zuckermann et al. 2014).

  • Revivalistics from the Genesis of Israeli To
    1 Ghil'ad Zuckermann. Revivalistics: From the Genesis of Israeli to Language Reclamation in Australia and Beyond. New York: Oxford University Press, 2020. Reviewed by Norman Simms This is a very important technical and contentious book, yet it is also a very funny, punny tome. It is technical in its approach to linguistics and language history, contentious because it argues that modern Hebrew spoken in Israel today is not the continuation of ancient or medieval Hebrew but rather a language created by secular European, mostly Yiddish- speaking Jews who pioneered the settlement of Palestine at the close of the nineteenth century, and only then became a spoken language, Israeli. Revivalistics is also technical in the way it looks at revived languages elsewhere, such as Aboriginal tongues that have lain dormant since native speakers were silenced and then were awakened like Sleeping Beauty into something new and modern or as New Zealand Maori brought into the post-colonial world after almost dying out with its population and then blending regional dialects, creating a lexicon for the new urban age of mechanization, and adapting to the dialectical era and the culture shaped by American Black rappers and political activists. And it is a funny punny book (as might be seen letter which only needs a dot in the (פ) if Hebrew characters were used, especially the feh/peh middle (like a belly button) to go from one to the other sound. The volume is chock-a-block with jokes, or what my father used to call “amusing anecdotes” based on the different intonations, voicing of non-vowel written ivrit, and other verbal confusions, situational mix- ups and deliberate obfuscations.
