Algonquin First Nation - Internet Project
(1997)

Created by Wayne Campbell

Hila, the Algonquins of Golden Lake and the Renfrew County RC Separate School Board have created a partnership to develop First Nation language resources for the Internet.

This page features Algonquin words, spoken by students at St. James School, Eganville, Ontario, Canada.

This resource was created with the assistance and guidance of Algonquin language instructors Ms. Suzanne Polson, Mr. Gene Cada and Carol Bob. Thanks also to Native Counsellor Mike Porte and classroom assistant Valerie Smith.

To use this resource your computer must have sound capability and your web browser must have a wav player configured.

Make a selection and hear some of the first words spoken in North America.
