In the listing below, selecting a document title will take you to the bibliography entry describing it. Selecting a filename will download the file.
Files with the extension "pdf" are in Portable Document Format. Such files may be read and printed using a number of programs, most prominently Adobe Acrobat Reader. On UNIX and GNU/Linux systems use xpdf or acroread.
Documents including Carrier language material are often available in
more than one version, each using a different writing system. The file
names below encode the writing system. "clc" stands for Carrier Linguistic
Committee, the practical writing system in general use today. "ipa"
stands for International Phonetic Alphabet. This is the writing
system generally used by linguists for technical purposes.
(For further information on these writing systems, see the page on
Writing Systems.)
In most cases we can also produce versions in which the Dakelh language material
is written in syllabics or in the Morice Roman system.
If a version is not listed in the writing system that you prefer, please
contact us. It will probably be possible to provide it.
