An Acoustic Study of Tetsǫ́t'ıné Stress
Principal Investigator: Jaker, Alessandro M
Licensed Year(s): 2020
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.4602. The ultimate goal of this study is to provide evidence for "metrical structure". That is, the idea that syllables in the language are organized into small groups called "feet", specifically what are called "iambic feet", which have the form (weak-strong)(weak-strong). There is evidence from looking at verb paradigms, ...

Yellowknives Dene Placenames and Tetsot'ine (Chipewyan) Dictionary
Principal Investigator: Jaker, Alessandro M
Licensed Year(s): 2018
Summary: The first objective is to produce a list of placenames, with their geographical coordinates and an English translation of the placenames, to leave with the Land & Environment Office, as well as a bilingual, interlinear transcript of any stories about places or placenames that the Principal Investigator (PI) collect from elders. The second objective is to produce a Tetso?´t'ine´ (Chipewyan) diction...

The Verb System of Tetsot'ine Yatie (Yellowknife): Lutselk'e, Dettah, and Ndilo dialects
Principal Investigator: Jaker, Alessandro M
Licensed Year(s): 2017 2016
Summary: The goal of this project is to better understand the verb system of the Chipewyan dialects native to the area north and east of Great Slave Lake--these dialects are the most different from all other Chipewyan (Dene Suline) dialects, and are referred to (by many speakers) as Tetsot'ine Yatie. These dialects are unique in having lost many intervocalic consonants that are still pronounced in the sout...

Acoustics of Nasal Vowels in Yellowknife Dogrib and Chipewyan
Principal Investigator: Jaker, Alessandro M
Licensed Year(s): 2014 2013 2012 2009 2008 2007 2005
Summary: The purpose of the Acoustics of Nasal Vowels project is to measure the phonetic properties of vowels in the dialects of Dogrib and Chipewyan spoken in Yellowknife, to see if nasal vowels are produced in a more dispersed (expanded) vowel space than oral vowels. This will tell the researchers about how exactly nasal vowels are pronounced in these languages, and whether nasal vowels are more easily ...
