Description

In this Science Update, from Science NetLinks, you'll hear about Virginia Algonquian, an extinct Native American tongue that was revived for the film "The New World." Linguist Blair Rudes rebuilt the language from about 600 words jotted down by English settlers and noticed that a few of these words were later absorbed into English. Science Updates are audio interviews with scientists and are accompanied by a set of questions as well as links to related Science NetLinks lessons and other related resources.
