1 Not Wordle - Gitksan
t’s been the year of Wordle. The free game now has 64 language variations, including Cantonese, Yiddish—even fictional Klingon. Not Wordle Gitksan uses the language of the Gitksan Nation in northwestern BC. Chief Sim’oo’git Geel (Catherine Blackstock) and others helped develop the game with Victoria-based linguist Aidan Pine. Chief Geel told CBC Radio, “We talk about the colonization of the land, and the language is one of the things that was taken away—there’s a reason why we don’t speak it fluently.” She tackles a new word each day. Not Wordle - Gitksan draws from UBC’s Gitksan.
