| Mi’kmaq Online Talking Dictionary | The talking dictionary (Nnuigtug Ugsituna’tas’g Glusuaqanei) is a resource for the Mi’gmaq/Mi’kmaq language. Each headword is recorded by a minimum of three speakers. Multiple speakers allow one to hear differences and variations in how a word is pronounced. Each recorded word is used in an accompanying phrase. This permits learners the opportunity to develop the important skill of distinguishing individual words when they are spoken in a phrase.
