Nuxálk (also Bella Coola) is a Salishan language spoken in the vicinity of the Canadian town Bella Coola, British Columbia
by approximately 20-30 elders. Until recently, the language was called Bella Coola, but the native designation Nuxálk is now
preferred. Though the number of truly fluent speakers has not increased, the language is now taught in both the provincial
school system and the Nuxálk Nation's own school, Acwsalcta, which means a place of learning. Nuxálk language classes, if
taken to at least the Grade 11 level, are considered adequate second language qualifications for entry to the major B.C. universities. |
