About this app

The Indigenous Languages Digital Archive (ILDA) is a web based archive designed specifically to support tribal efforts in archives-based language revitalization. ILDA allows for the organization, storage, retrieval, and analysis of digitized archival linguistic materials, and associated data, for the purpose of informing language revitalization and educational efforts by tribal communities. Using information from ILDA, the ILDA Dictionary allows users to create a dictionary of their language consisting of words, word forms, and example sentences with associated translations and audio. The ILDA Dictionary app allows searching and browsing of the dictionary.

Ratings and reviews

As a long time user of Myaamiaatawaakani, I'm glad to see that it has served as a foundation for other language communities. Quick tip: you need to set up a dictionary before you run a search for the first time, or you won't get results. Just go to settings (the three dots in the upper right hand corner), tap "Select Instance", and then choose one of the available languages. After that, you're all set.

Over joyed that this tool is available, set up is a bit cumbersome however once set up, it is a powerful vocabulary reference!

Won't work at all
