Zuni language revitalization

Zuni language revitalization involves efforts to preserve and promote the Zuni language, spoken by the Zuni people of New Mexico. Since younger generations use it less, initiatives include language classes, creating educational materials, recording native speakers, and incorporating Zuni into daily life and technology. These efforts aim to sustain cultural identity, improve linguistic continuity, and ensure future generations can speak and understand the language. By revitalizing Zuni, the community works to prevent language loss and keep their cultural heritage vibrant.
