Since the 1940’s it has been declared “extinct”. We acknowledge that this description is inaccurate, as pieces of knowledge of our language have always existed. By refusing the definition of extinction, we have allowed ourselves to feel more strongly connected to our ancestors by carrying on their words to influence the minds of our people both young and old. This project began formally in 2017, based on a vision from Chief Michael Recalma, with support of the BC Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation and the University of Victoria. However, many individual descendants of the pentl’ach people have, in their own ways, been protecting and researching this sleeping language for decades. This small community-based team has now initiated the multi-generational task of awakening and reclaiming the pentl’ach language.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cb08b164d8711c846a1106e/1674000057598-KH8ZKDXGY0ZJ1J01047T/pentl%27ach+-+cucin+mouth.png Pentl'ach Alphabet -

The pentl’ach logo The pentl’ach logo was designed by community artist Jesse Recalma. In Jesse’s words:The Thunderbird design is based off the sets of old poles that were found around Comox Harbor and are currently at RBCM. This style of pole was used by a few families with roots amongst pentl'ach peoples with the same style having been found as far south as Departure Bay in Nanaimo and on Denman Island. This is in reference to the old people who guide us from the other side. The Ayhos, or two headed serpent, that surrounds the Thunderbird is a creature found referenced in old stories that would travel between Comox Valley and Lund. The Ayhos represents the balance of the work needed in order to progress further on this project. The sleeping face in the middle is that place we started from, and the two heads of the serpent are the supernatural forces that drive our work to wake up our language. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cb08b164d8711c846a1106e/d38cf7c4-f437-496f-af82-d7d804530640/Qualicum+First+Nation+pentl%E2%80%99ach+-+Su+Urbanczyk.jpeg Pentl'ach Alphabet - Su Urbanczyk Associate Professor - Department of Linguistics Su Urbanczyk is an Associate Professor of linguistics at the University of Victoria, focusing on the sound and word patterns of Central Salish languages.
