Dialogue: 0,0:01:10.03,0:01:11.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:11.97,0:01:14.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The goal of the language\Nrevitalization accelerator
Dialogue: 0,0:01:14.88,0:01:17.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is to make it easier for people to launch

Dialogue: 0,0:01:24.52,0:01:28.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the challenge with that\Nis we're basically standardizing something
Dialogue: 0,0:01:28.78,0:01:32.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that cannot be too standardized\Nand needs to still be locally relevant
Dialogue: 0,0:01:32.77,0:01:35.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because every community\Nhas different needs
Dialogue: 0,0:01:35.23,0:01:38.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and language revitalization takes\Na lot of different forms.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:38.47,0:01:42.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so while we're kind of\Nin the early stages of this program,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:42.45,0:01:47.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,one of the things that we're trying to do\Nis to make sure that each cohort has
Dialogue: 0,0:01:48.51,0:01:51.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a certain geographical diversity,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:51.57,0:01:55.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as well as an urban-rural diversity\Nand a diversity of ages,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:55.53,0:02:00.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so that we're sure that our approach\Nto language revitalization
Dialogue: 0,0:02:01.51,0:02:04.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,can apply to as many different\Nkinds of people as possible

Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.52,0:02:10.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We also learn a lot\Nfrom the people who we work with.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:10.28,0:02:11.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.27,0:02:15.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the more different kinds of\Nlanguage revitalization projects
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.03,0:02:17.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we have in the accelerator,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:17.56,0:02:20.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the better we can\Nsupport people the following year.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.24,0:02:25.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So even though we don't have\Nan exact reserved number of slots

Dialogue: 0,0:02:41.10,0:02:45.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,More specifically, when we're looking\Nat a successful application,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.02,0:02:50.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we're interested in projects
Dialogue: 0,0:02:50.28,0:02:53.75,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that are framed in a long-term context.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:53.79,0:02:57.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,One of the first questions is what do you\Nwant for your language in ten years?
Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.90,0:03:01.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the reason we ask that question\Nbecause language revitalization
Dialogue: 0,0:03:01.26,0:03:05.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is generational and you are not going\Nto revitalize your language in one year.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:05.47,0:03:10.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What you can do, though,\Nis have a vision for the next ten years,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.50,0:03:12.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,which is a slice of a generation.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:13.20,0:03:18.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then that can be broken down\Ninto more bite-sized goals for one year
Dialogue: 0,0:03:18.20,0:03:20.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because the accelerator lasts one year.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:20.55,0:03:25.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This is why the next question is\Nwhat do you want to do for your language

Dialogue: 0,0:03:29.02,0:03:32.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so projects that aren't\Ntrying to do a million things
Dialogue: 0,0:03:32.79,0:03:36.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but instead, focus on one thing\Ntend to be more successful.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:37.38,0:03:38.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And
Dialogue: 0,0:03:38.92,0:03:43.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we can more confidently help someone\Nwho wants to do one thing.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:43.24,0:03:46.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you're trying to build a dictionary\Nin your language, we can make sure

Dialogue: 0,0:03:50.84,0:03:53.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,However, I don't think\Nthat in the course of a year
Dialogue: 0,0:03:53.32,0:03:56.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we can help you develop\Nan orthography for your language,

Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.95,0:04:05.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The other thing\Nthat we're that we look for
Dialogue: 0,0:04:05.28,0:04:09.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are applications that think\Nnot just about language documentation,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.62,0:04:12.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but language revitalization more broadly.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:14.22,0:04:19.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Documenting your language\Nis a part of revitalizing your language.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.25,0:04:22.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But documentation alone\Nis not language revitalization.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:22.82,0:04:25.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Language revitalization\Nis a community process.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:26.18,0:04:31.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so if your goals include\Nengaging your community in a certain way,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:31.98,0:04:35.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so perhaps if you are working\Non documentation
Dialogue: 0,0:04:35.28,0:04:38.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like you're recording\Noral histories in your language.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:38.49,0:04:43.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If you are enlisting a group of five\Nyoung people in your community

Dialogue: 0,0:04:47.71,0:04:50.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,what you're doing is effectively
Dialogue: 0,0:04:50.50,0:04:53.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,kind of putting young people\Nin immersion scenarios
Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.80,0:04:57.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where they learn from elders,\Nwhere they learn about their language,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:57.73,0:05:02.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and that is more revitalization oriented
Dialogue: 0,0:05:02.26,0:05:06.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,than you alone going around\Nwith a camera and recording people.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:08.54,0:05:10.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So that is to say that
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.78,0:05:12.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it's also important to point out
Dialogue: 0,0:05:12.51,0:05:16.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that language revitalization\Nmight not include language documentation.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:16.31,0:05:19.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Maybe your language\Nis already really well documented

Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.41,0:05:36.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's important to think about how\Nyou are going to engage your community

Dialogue: 0,0:05:40.02,0:05:45.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because that is the kind of community\Naspect of language revitalization
Dialogue: 0,0:05:45.51,0:05:47.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that's really, really important.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:47.24,0:05:51.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So from the top,\Nwe are looking for projects
Dialogue: 0,0:05:51.23,0:05:57.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that have a kind of a very strong\Nand achievable focus for one year,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:57.88,0:06:01.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but that are thought about

Dialogue: 0,0:06:14.22,0:06:15.91,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Ch: Yeah, those are great points.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:15.96,0:06:19.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And one other I would add\Nthat we get asked a lot is:
Dialogue: 0,0:06:19.22,0:06:21.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"Do I need to be a speaker\Nof this language?"
Dialogue: 0,0:06:21.83,0:06:26.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So we do prioritize mother tongue\Nand ancestral heritage language learners.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:26.78,0:06:31.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So if the language is your mother tongue,\Nwe will prioritize your application.

Dialogue: 0,0:07:13.25,0:07:15.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and applying through a joint application

Dialogue: 0,0:08:33.13,0:08:37.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So the first question that is narrative,

Dialogue: 0,0:10:22.66,0:10:25.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and just gives us an idea\Nof the scope and the situation.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:26.04,0:10:27.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I put two examples here of last year
Dialogue: 0,0:10:28.02,0:10:30.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and we don't have\Nto read them out completely.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:30.20,0:10:33.76,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But the first one says:\N“In order to revive our language,

Dialogue: 0,0:10:41.53,0:10:44.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And they gave us four very specific goals.

Dialogue: 0,0:10:50.26,0:10:52.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and they gave very specific\Nmetrics for that.
Dialogue: 0,0:10:52.51,0:10:56.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this long term language goals\Nactually shows how this cohort
Dialogue: 0,0:10:56.32,0:11:00.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,will help in moving forward\Nwith their long term language goals.
Dialogue: 0,0:11:00.97,0:11:04.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then the second example\Nis a bit more of a narrative answer,
Dialogue: 0,0:11:04.46,0:11:06.69,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it says, To revitalize our language,
Dialogue: 0,0:11:06.71,0:11:11.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,we first urgently need to facilitate\Nthe passing on of language from the elders

Dialogue: 0,0:11:12.52,0:11:14.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Our focus is on both digital preservation

Dialogue: 0,0:11:17.77,0:11:21.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We will love to build out a more formal\Nprogram to match teachers and students

Dialogue: 0,0:11:23.48,0:11:26.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so we liked this answer\Nbecause it talks about now,
Dialogue: 0,0:11:26.10,0:11:29.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but also talks about how those\Nare building blocks and stepping stones.
Dialogue: 0,0:11:29.89,0:11:33.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So building out more formalized\Nprograms in the future.
Dialogue: 0,0:11:35.02,0:11:39.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Next we have, “What are\Nyour language goals for 2023 to 2024?”
Dialogue: 0,0:11:39.23,0:11:42.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Of course, that's the question\Nfor this year, last year was 2022.
Dialogue: 0,0:11:43.24,0:11:45.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So someone for this year's cohort wrote,

Dialogue: 0,0:11:55.16,0:11:57.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And they gave us a very specific metrics.
Dialogue: 0,0:11:57.60,0:12:02.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So as Daniel mentioned at the beginning,\Nwe want we're really looking at projects

Dialogue: 0,0:12:05.96,0:12:09.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's why we ask about your long-term\Ngoals and then your goals for this year.
Dialogue: 0,0:12:09.70,0:12:13.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So if you want to compile\Na dictionary, it's helpful to it.
Dialogue: 0,0:12:13.66,0:12:15.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We want to compile a dictionary

Dialogue: 0,0:12:23.79,0:12:28.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But if we have some type of metric that\Nwe can go on and benchmark that helps us
Dialogue: 0,0:12:28.26,0:12:30.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it also helps you in your project
Dialogue: 0,0:12:30.26,0:12:33.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to not have too much on your plate\Nthroughout the year.
Dialogue: 0,0:12:33.33,0:12:37.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So say also maybe you want\Nto work on children's books.
Dialogue: 0,0:12:37.10,0:12:41.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So in your application for\N"What are your language goals for 2023?"
Dialogue: 0,0:12:41.25,0:12:46.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Instead of writing, "I want to compile\Nchildren books for kids in my community",
Dialogue: 0,0:12:46.70,0:12:51.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you can write, "I want to compile five\Nchildren's books for kids in my community,

Dialogue: 0,0:12:56.88,0:12:59.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this example\Nis great because it gives us

Dialogue: 0,0:25:33.74,0:25:36.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is part of language revitalization.
Dialogue: 0,0:25:36.26,0:25:40.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because after your community\Nreclaims their language,
Dialogue: 0,0:25:40.48,0:25:45.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they need to feel comfortable and proud\Nusing their language in their daily lives.

Dialogue: 0,0:26:09.70,0:26:13.51,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And this is partly\Nto normalize the language,
Dialogue: 0,0:26:13.56,0:26:18.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but also to educate people\Nwho aren't Ohlone about Ohlone, right?
Dialogue: 0,0:26:18.41,0:26:22.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So there are all kinds of projects\Nlike this in Cornwall, England.
Dialogue: 0,0:26:23.51,0:26:25.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,There were efforts to get\Nrestaurants and bars
