#tunica — Public Fediverse posts

@stevegis_ssg I only learned that this was a thing when I started working with the #Tunica language and had to figure out what the dictionary entry marked "fanner for corn" referred to. It's woven like a basket and has its own word, which seems to be completely different from the general word for a fan. #MoreThanYouWantedToKnow

Diese Woche auf der Odonischen Freitagsbühne: #Tunica!

"Die vierköpfige Kölner Band bringt seit 2023 einen vielschichtigen Sound zwischen #Psych, #Wave und #Chanson auf die Bühne, der unterschiedlichste Lautstärkepegel bedient, häufig melodisch-zart anklingt und sich bei verzerrtem Bass, Gitarren und Synthesizern in Kracheskapaden auflöst."

Looks like the eye of this junt is just west of #Tunica, moving northwest, and will miss #Memphis “by a whisker”

I’m thrilled to announce that I will be moving to #Philadelphia for a fellowship at the American Philosophical Society, where I will continue working on locating, building, and analyzing a corpus of #Tunica language documentation, as well as gathering all information I can on the history and culture of the Tunica-Biloxi people.

I have been remiss in posting here that the #Tunica Language Textbook is published and available for purchase![1] Here’s the press release.[2]

If this sort of book is up your alley, have a look at it (you can preview it on Google Books)[3] and let me know what you think. Advice is crucial, as we’re planning a second textbook.

Today is the first day of #Tunica language & culture summer camp, the first in-person camp since 2019. It’s been a while since I taught the language, having spent the last couple of years immersed in analysis of the documentation. I’m looking forward to getting back to engaging with the language in the present!

Also looking forward to seeing how much the kids I remember have grown and inevitably feeling old as a result. 👴

@Coocho I love astronomical names in different languages! In #Tunica, it can be called the White Trail or the Dog Trail

Day two of the #Tunica language #immersion workshop is done. It’s been the most well-attended Tunica immersion by far. I hope attendees continue to engage with the language through classes or just using Tunica words in everyday conversation.

The video of the language apprentices’ journey to becoming assistant language instructors is a good intro to the language program and (I hope) a great recruitment tool for learners and linguists!

Leaving today for for a three-day #Tunica language immersion workshop. I’m looking forward to seeing people I haven’t seen in person since the pandemic and to working with folks new to Tunica to make their first experience fun and rewarding.

I’m also eager to see (and likely marvel) at how well the assistant language instructors now speak the language.
