HUL’Q’UMI’NUM’ PEDAGOGICAL MATERIALS

Hul’q’umi’num’ listening quizzes

This series of listening quizzes was created thanks to the SSHRC PDG Hul’q’umi’num’ Phonetic Structures: Exploring Paths to Fluency (2018-23). It was designed to allow for use both as a pedagogical tool – to train listening skills – and as a research tool – to understand speech perception among Hul’q’umi’num’ learners. For more information and/or to take the quizzes, you can head to the Listening Quiz landing page.
