This book examines how two consecutive groups of youth in a Yup'ik village negotiated eroding heritage language learning resources, changing language ideologies, and gendered subsistence practices while transforming community language use over time. Wyman shows how villagers used specific Yup'ik forms, genres, and discourse practices to foster learning in and out of school, underscoring the stakes of language endangerment. At the same time, by demonstrating how the youth and adults in the study used multiple languages, literacies and translanguaging to sustain a unique subarctic way of life, Wyman illuminates Indigenous peoples’ wide-ranging forms of linguistic survivance in an interconnected world.Bilingual education and bilingualism ;85.Education, BilingualAlaskaYupik childrenLanguagesYupik childrenEducationEnglish languageStudy and teachingAlaskaForeign speakersEnglish languageStudy and teachingYupik speakersLinguistic changeAlaskaAlaskaLanguagesEducation, BilingualYupik childrenLanguages.Yupik childrenEducation.English languageStudy and teachingForeign speakers.English languageStudy and teachingYupik speakers.Linguistic change370.11709798Wyman Leisy Thornton1691315MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910812609703321Youth culture, language endangerment and linguistic survivance4067595UNINA
