Guide
to Reading Shoshoni
The Shoshoni writing system used in Newen
Deboope is based on an earlier orthography developed by the Sho-Ban
High School Bilingual Education Program at Fort Hall, Idaho, in the
1980s. Unlike standard English spelling, each letter or combination
of letters have one and only one pronunciation, so that once a person
has learned the system, he or she should be able to pronounce all new
words encountered. This writing system is also used in the Shoshoni
language courses taught at Idaho State University (I.S.U.) in Pocatello,
Idaho.

Is a computer software program designed to teach simple Shoshone words.
The program starts with a main menu to select the word types to be learned.
After selecting the specific word group, the program goes into a separate
program. The English and Shoshone word pairs are randomly displayed
on the screen with graphics/colors within the selected word group. The
user then has the option of playing the words by clicking a 'speak'
button. The Shoshone words are 'spoken' by a Shoshone Tribal member
from the Wind River area of Wyoming.

Stillaguamish
Tribe of Indians
Many centuries ago, long before
the area was settled, long before forests and grasslands were replaced
with asphalt, our ancestors celebrated the journey of life and lived
from the resources this land provides. As their children played and
learned about nature, the adults would hunt, fish, and hand craft items
for daily survival. Festively, they would periodically gather to celebrate
and give thanks for all they had. We--their descendents--the Stillaguamish
people reverently celebrate the rich culture and history that was, and
still is, ours.

The
Tlingit Indian Tribe
The Tlingit are the northenmost of the
Northwest Coast peoples (which also includes, among others, Haida, Tsimshian,
Kwakiutl, Nootka, Salishan, Chemakum, Chinook, and Makah) who lived
traditionally by fishing and hunting marine animals and built large
plank houses, totem poles, and ocean-going dugout canoes. They were
skillful traders and utilized their excess wealth on luxuries given
away at splendid feasts (potlatches) which served to honor the dead
and to maintain or elevate the rank of aristocrats. The Tlingit comprised
four groups or tribes: Southern, Northern, Gulf Coast, and Inland Tlingit.

Tubatulabal
The Tubatulabal inhabited the drainage area of the upper Kern River
in California's southern Sierra Nevada foothills region. They were loosely
organized into three politically discrete bands (Pahkanapil, Palegawan,
and Bankalachi [Toloim]) having a high degree of internal unity. They
spoke mutually intelligible dialects of Tubatulabal, a Uto-Aztecan language.
Only the Pahkanapil survived the intensive White settlement of their
territory that began in the 1850s.

The
Noochew (Northern Ute) Nation Welcomes the World to Ute Country
We call ourselves “Noochew,” the People.
The Noochew (Utes) were the first tribe to acquired the horse from the
Spaniards in 1600. The Spaniards were looking for a short cut to the
west coast. They called us Yutah. The Noochew were Mountain People and
hunters and gatherers. Utah gets it's name from the Yutah name for our
people. The Utes are depicted as horses in rock writing.

Written
Ute Language
A central element of effective language
education for American Indianstudents is the development of effective
skills and basic competenciesin written English. I have been concerned
about this topic for some time,largely as an outgrowth of my continuing
study of the use of oral Englishin various tribes and as a response
to needs of Ute students not adequatelybeing met by the public school
system on the Northern Ute reservation andthe needs of adult Ute learners
seeking GED (high school equivalency )certificates.
