Kanien�k�ha language survey

12/03/2013

The Language & Culture Training Center of the Mohawk Council of Kahnaw�:ke (MCK), along with the Kanien�keh�:ka Onkwaw�n:na Raotiti�hkwa Language and Cultural Center (KOR), would like to inform the community that they are working collaboratively to conduct a survey on the status of the Kanien�k�ha language in our community.

A brief three question survey will be conducted over the telephone by five students from the Ratiwennahn�:rats Program beginning today, Tuesday, December 3rd until Thursday, January 9, 2014 using the Kahnaw�:ke Telephone Directory.
 
The results of this survey will be used for a campaign that the two groups have been working on for future Kanien�k�ha initiatives to increase fluency within the community. All Kahnawa�kehr�:non are strongly urged to participate when called so that an accurate picture of the state of the Kanien�k�ha language in Kahnaw�:ke can be established.
