Report from the Navajo Language Academy
Peggy Speas recently returned from three weeks of teaching at the Navajo Language Academy in Flagstaff. She and a group of about twenty students develped an analysis of Navajo spatial deictic terms. Peggy reports that it is a significant improvement over the existing description, which simply says there are six terms that mean "here", six that mean "there", and four that mean "over there".
Above: Peggy engaging in a lesson prepared by Cecilia Silentman Carr (in green) on how to make a peanut butter sandwich. Peggy writes: "Neither here nor there, but we got to eat the sandwiches in the end".
