About this service

The Hulquminum language was traditionally an oral-only language and is at risk of becoming extinct. Through the Dictionary Project, Cowichan Tribes is keeping the language alive by:

  • Converting the spoken language into a written orthography;
  • Providing community language classes;
  • Increasing the number of Hulquminum teachers and speakers;
  • Introducing the Hulquminum language in schools; and
  • Providing Cultural Teaching Assistants to the schools. There are currently seven Cultural Teaching Assistants in schools with a high First Nations enrolment.
