Language Revitalization
In 2012, Susan Pavskan reported:
On Thursday evenings Denaakkâe (Koyukon Athabascan) classes are held at Yukon-Koyukuk School District offices in Fairbanks and Huslia.

The students demonstrated these to their parents and grandparents.

Famous quotes containing the word language:
“But as some silly young men returning from France affect a broken English, to be thought perfect in the French language; so his Lordship, I think, to seem a perfect understander of the unintelligible language of the Schoolmen, pretends an ignorance of his mother-tongue. He talks here of command and counsel as if he were no Englishman, nor knew any difference between their significations.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
