SNAIL Conference 2025

The Pacific Northwest (PNW) is one of the largest linguistic areas of the world. It is full of a diverse group of peoples and languages. More recently, the area has seen thriving language revitalization and reclamation work, often through university and tribal partnerships, such as at the University of Oregon, Simon Fraser University, and the University of Washington.

The Symposium on Northwest American Indigenous Languages (SNAIL) seeks to provide a venue for language speakers, artists, communities, and linguists to come together to share knowledge and celebrate the beauty and diversity of languages within the PNW Sprachbund.

For our inaugural conference, our keynote speaker will be Scott DeLancey, Professor Emeritus at the University of Oregon. Scott has dedicated his life to language documentation, description, and revitalization; helping found the Northwest Indian Language Institute.

We would like to welcome everyone who is interested to join us at the University of Oregon in Eugene on July 12-13, 2025.
