If you are just practicing without any language, you are just … touching the surface.

If you don’t learn your language, you can’t truly practice your culture. “You have to learn your language it’s the backbone of your culture. Jamie Valdez, who teaches Klallam at the high school, explains the importance of language: Determined to keep the language alive as a spoken language, the Klallam Language Program was developed by the Elwha Klallam Tribe in 1992 to document and preserve the Klallam language by recording and transcribing tapes with tribal elders who spoke the language (Pierre 2003). However, more than just preserving the language, the Tribe wanted the language to come alive again. By the time Congress passed the Native American Language Act in 1990, there were only eight people who could speak the language. Over 21 Elders were recorded between 1953 and the present by linguists. The Elwha Klallam Tribe was fortunate to have so many Elders recorded as early as 1953. The site also contains several stories told in Klallam and interviews with Klallam speakers (Montler). The site contains more than 2,000 Klallam words, which are accompanied by sound files so that you can hear the pronunciation. Montler is the University of North Texas linguistics professor who has worked with the Tribe to preserve the language through writings and recordings. The Klallam words below and the alphabet are from Dr. Since the Klallam language has several sounds not found in European languages like English, some specific symbols must be used to represent these sounds. The Klallam alphabet is based on a standard set of symbols used in writing many of the Native American languages of the Northwest. Elwha Klallam, Becher Bay Klallam, Jamestown Klallam, and Little Boston Klallam are all very, very slightly different from one another in the pronunciation and usage of some words. The Klallam language, itself, has several dialects. A speaker of Lummi, for example, could learn Klallam very easily, and vice versa. Most of the words in Klallam are the same or very similar to words in the Northern Straits dialects. Lummi and Samish have been spoken near Bellinghamn on the U.S. Saanich, Songish, and Sooke have been spoken on southern Vancouver Island and neighboring small islands. It is one language in a large family of Native American languages called Salishan or Salish languages that have been spoken in what is now Washington, British Columbia, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana.Īlthough Klallam is a separate language, it is very closely related to the dialects called Northern Straits: Saanich, Lummi, Samish, Songish, and Sooke. It has also been spoken in some other areas such as Beacher Bay on the south of Vancouver Island and on some nearby smaller islands. The Klallam language has always been spoken on the north shore of Washington’s Olympic Peninsula from the Strait of Juan de Fuca inland into the mountains. The Klallam Language Program has been in effect since 1992. There are different dialects in the different areas, and were so between the different villages.
