Center for Culture & Health Family Medicine, <a href="http://www.ualberta.ca" target="_blank"><strong>University of Alberta (U of A)</strong></a> are partnering to develop a web based interactive First Nations language portal with dictionary and curriculum based resources to further the development for Cree language in Canada. <p>In addition to the collaboration with Dr. Waugh from the University of Alberta, the project secured the use of another dictionary from Professor Arok Wolvengrey of the <a href="http://www.firstnationsuniversity.ca" target="_blank"><strong>First Nations University</strong></a> of Canada in Regina.<br /> Professor Wolvengrey has been instrumental in providing this project with linguistic and grammatical support for the Cree language and the different dialects. He is working on expanding his existing dictionary with additional contents and examples.</p> The <strong>Cree Language Resource Project (CLRP)</strong> dictionary will have the ability to translate words from English to Cree in Syllabics and Roman Orthography (Cree written in English) with explanation of how it fits in a sentence. The translated word will be associated with a picture, sound and a video clip. The goal of the project is to promote the <strong>learning and preservation</strong> of the Cree language. The online dictionary will have the ability to accommodate different regional Cree dialects.</p> <p>In addition to translation function the system will allow the creation of flash cards and storyboard using the picture and the words (syllabics and English) from the database. Others features will be managed educational games such as word matching and puzzles. These games will have testing component to assess student learning. The system will include a database of Cree language lesson plans that will guide teachers in integrating First Nation Languages in the curriculum.</p> <h2><a id='HideSplash' href="javascript://">Start using Online Cree Dictionary</a></h2> </div> <div id="content" > <h2>Word search</h2> <div id="search-form"> <ul> <li>- <a href="javascript://" title="Cree Syllabics Keyboard" id="SwitchVK">Hide Virtual Keyboard</a></li> <!--i>- <a href="javascript://" title="Cree Syllabics Keyboard" onclick="CD.switchBinder();">Virtual Keyboard</a></li--> <li>- <a href="/search/advanced.php" title="Advanced search">Advanced Search</a></li> <li>- <a href="#" title="Search options" id="options">Options</a></li> <li>- <a href="/help.php" title="">How to Search</a></li> </ul> <form action="/search/" method="get" name="form" id="SearchForm"> <table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" width="100%"> <tr> <td class="input-language"> Input language:<br/> <div id="select_field" class="comboBox"> <div id="select_field_value_search">roman orthography</div> <div style="visibility: hidden;" class="comboOptions" id="optionsList"> <a href="javascript://" title="English">english</a> <a href="javascript://" title="Roman Orthography">roman orthography</a> <a href="javascript://" title="Cree Syllabic">cree syllabic</a> </div> </div> </td> <td> <input type="text" name="q" class="main-inputtext input" value="" id="compleate"/> <input type="hidden" value="1" name="scope" id="lang"/> </td> <td id="search_button"> <input type="image" src=" /img/adult/search_button.gif" alt="search" name="submitButton" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3" id="search_checkbox"> </td> </tr> </table> </form> <div id="inputBinder" style="visibility:visible;"> <div style="margin:0;"> <div id="virtual-keyboard"> <div id="virtual-keyboard-header"> <!--img id="kbDragHandle" src="/img/adult/move.png" alt="Drag" style="display:none;margin:2px;" /--> <a id="virtual-keyboard-close" class="popupBoxClose" href="javascript://" title="Hide virtual keyboard"><span>Hide virtual keyboard</span></a> <span id="dialectTitle">Maskwachis Plains Cree</span> </div> <div id="virtual-keyboard-content"> <div id="switch-dialect"> <span>Switch dialect:</span> <div class="comboBox" id="select_dialect"> <div id="select_field_value_dialect">Maskwachis Plains Cree</div> <div style="visibility: hidden;" id="option_list2" class="comboOptions"> <a href="javascript://" title="Maskwachis Plains Cree">Maskwachis Plains Cree</a> <a href="javascript://" title="Saskatchewan Plains Cree">Saskatchewan Plains Cree</a> <a href="javascript://" title="Woods Cree">Woods Cree</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="divkeyboard" class="object"> </div> <!--input class="input" placeholder="Tap on the virtual keyboard to start" /--> <div class="simple-keyboard"></div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="FontError"></div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="sidebar"> <h2 id="softwareAd"><span>CREE SOFTWARE</span></h2> <div class="sidebar_widgets"> <h3>Download for free Cree<br/>Software right now!</h3> <div> <a href="/software/index.php" title="Cree Dictionary and Cree Converter Gadgets!"><span>Cree Dictionary and Cree Converter Gadgets!</span></a> </div> <a href="/software/index.php">Read more and download</a> </div> <h2 id="kidsversion_header" class="adult"><span>VERSION FOR KIDS</span></h2> <div class="adult sidebar_feedback"> <a id="kids_banner" href="http://kids.creedictionary.com" title="kids.creedictionary.com"><span>kids.creedictionary.com</span></a> Visit <a href="http://kids.creedictionary.com" title="kids.creedictionary.com">kids.creedictionary.com</a> </div> <h2 id="news_header"><span>NEWS</span></h2> <div class="news"> <span class="news_date">09.04.2021</span><br/> We removed obsolete components based on Adobe Flash. </div> <div class="news"> <span class="news_date">14.10.2013</span><br/> Online Cree Dictionary App Update We announce an update of iOS Cree Dictionary application.
