Re: [globaloutlookDH-l] DHSI unconference session on Multilingualism in DH

20 Jun 2014

      I agree with you Stuart. Perhaps you would like to propose a working group.
I know others in the list would love to help you out. David Golumbia, for
example, has done fantastic work in this regard.
Perhaps we should start another thread just on this subject.
Best,
Alex.

I think it's worth thinking of another kind of multilingualism:
language revival and endangered languages.
At the NZETC we have a wonderful corpus He Pātaka Kupu Ture / The
Legal Māori Archive which resulted from our engagement with Māori
language revivalists.
Pretty much wherever you are in the world (except perhaps England),
there are local indigenous languages and language communities
struggling to bolster their languages. These communities are typically
under-served by digital tools.

There is room to add the "I can whisper" in other languages right above
or below the English version.

How about: a generic "I can whisper," "I can interpret," "I can share"

and

then some flag stickers for the languages? (assuming we can find

that turns out to be too complicated, then just a generic sticker (or

Cheapest is always single colour.

four languages from different language families.
