the first - perhaps only- person to develop full literacy in Mohave and began,
of her own intiative, to do full translations and transcriptions of traditional

getting really interested in working with their heritage language). <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

work. As well, she is teaching classes in Mohave and developing a carefully

linguist lists ignores<br>
the incredible contribution of natives without advanced degrees. In <br>
native society, within the Native worldview these are for many the true<br>
linguists and those who carry power within their society. I understand<br>
the concept of the list but if this is about native people how is it <br>
possible to ignore the native worldview. If this list will not create<br>
that parallel with the higher degree holders, then I will create that<br>
list.<br>
<br>
Please send me your lists of native people who are linguists within <br>
their communities, they do not have to hold a degree from a university<br>
but must be working with the linguistic field, and considered a leader.<br>
Please also send me more information about them, what languages the work <br>
on and where they work, what tribe they are a member of, etc.<br>
