[Many thanks to Peter Jordens for bringing this item to our attention.] Danica Coto (Associated Press, July 1, 2021) reports on Dominica’s efforts to preserve Creole, an important part of the island’s culture.
The elementary school student stood up, pulled down her face mask and leaned into the microphone. She swallowed hard before trying to spell the word “discover” in French Creole.
