Linguistic Matls IN the language of study

[Mia Kalish]

Thanks, maybe I'll just use these emails from the ILAT list. I'll put it as
"historically there are no . . . but Indigenous People are beginning to
produce contemporary linguistic documents in their own languages". 

Thanks so much for the help.

Mia, 
When I was in Alice Springs Australia the Arrente people were moving
that direction. I have no references for you but they were producing
in 1998 dual English and aboriginal language texts, with english on
one half of the page and Arrente on the other half. I don't know the
true spelling of the Arrente/Arrende.
