Ep. 48: Yulha Lhawa on Khroskyabs Language Documentation & Revitalization
<p>This month's episode is with Yulha Lhawa from the<a href='https://linguistics.washington.edu'> University of Washington </a>and the <a href='https://www.endangeredlanguages.com/'>Endangered Languages Project</a>. </p> <p><a href='https://linguistics.washington.edu/people/yulha-yi'>Yulha Lhawa</a>, originally from Siyuewu Village in Sichuan, China, is a passionate advocate for her community's traditions and language. Growing up as a yak herder, Yulha developed an interest in linguistics during high school. This interest fueled her to create the trilingual book "<a href='https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/items/e76d2158-360d-46ac-8e85-1e0fedff6341'>Warming Your Hands by Moonlight</a>," aimed at preserving local history and folklore. Taking her dedication a step further, Yulha journeyed to the United States from the Himalayas to study linguistics at the <a href='https://humanities.uoregon.edu/linguistics'>University of Oregon</a>. Currently, she's pursuing a Master's in computational linguistics at the <a href='https://linguistics.washington.edu'>University of Washington</a>, hoping to merge her linguistic knowledge with modern technology to contribute to the preservation of her community's cultural heritage.</p> <p>Things mentioned in this episode</p> <ul><li><a href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khroskyabs_language'>Khroskyabs language</a></li> <li><a href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyalrongic_languages'>Gyalrongic languages</a></li> <li><a href='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibeto-Burman_languages'>Tibeto-Burman languages</a></li> <li><a href='https://www.endangeredlanguages.com'>Endangered Languages Project</a></li> <li><a href='https://endangeredlanguagesproject.as.me/schedule/9f4dee73/appointment/40138205?appointmentTypeIds%5B%5D=40138205'>Endangered Languages Project Mentorship Program </a></li> <li><a href='https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUgfvqpBlF7Tvurb_ChXvIg'>Khroskyabs on YouTube</a></li> <li><a href='http://patreon.com/fieldnotespodcast'>Field Notes Patreon</a></li> </ul> <p> </p>
