homework

So my homework is not going well. I was supposed to find a Dakelh word for "installation" or some such. Of course, duh, there is none. Here is what I have that might work: "yats'uzkih" -- we landed (by boat) and "taba" -- shore. I will have to check a possible dialect issue; these are words from the Nak'azdli dialect, not Dakelh.

    I like the idea of the canoe landing at UNBC. Now I wish we were by the rivers...lol. It would make it nice and literal, but figurative is okay too.

    I haven't heard back about my enquiries to Kathy Shaw in the FNAT Centre either about this very same thing, Rob.
