Kankanaey Dialogues by kids

It's wonderful. Kids are creative.

This video is just a small portion of a play that was formulated by pupils in a school I visited. After giving them general instructions, they created an entertaining presentation.

Blog Intention

... But your wealth is owned by somebody else. ("Ngem bulsam, natken nagin uka"-Kankanaey)

Hello Viewers,

I plan to make translations of texts written in local languages, such as song lyrics, into English. Of course, I may not post the complete original texts as my way of honoring the "copyrights". Please understand, though, that this site is created for academic purposes. I am begging for the kind considerations of individuals and bodies who may find some "concerns" due to this academic endeavor.

I may also post documentations of any creation that will emanate from my interest on Natural languages.

Thank you...
