Pronunciation and grammar

По-русски | In English | Suomeksi | På norsk

We are working on a mini grammar for Skolt Sámi designed especially for users of Oahpa!-nuõrti .

The materials we have used include:

Feist, T. 2010: A grammar of Skolt Saami . Manchester.
Moshnikoff, S. / Moshnikoff J. / Koponen 2009: Koltansaamen koulukielioppi. Inari.
Sammallahti, P. / Mosnikoff, J. 1991: Suomi-koltansaame-sanakirja. Utsjoki.
