Pertame

Pertame language app

This is an app for the Pertame language of Central Australia.

Pertame people belong to the country around the Finke and Hugh Rivers in Central Australia.

This app was made for younger Pertame people so they can learn more about their language, culture and natural world.

For more information about the Pertame language, see 'A Learner's Wordlist of Pertame', compiled by Christobel Swan and Marlene Cousens, and published by IAD Press.

This app was developed by a Pertame team, led by Christobel Swan and other senior Pertame people, with support from Margaret Carew, Vanessa Farrelly and Jodie Clarkson.

This app has been produced by the Research Unit for Indigenous Language at Melbourne University and Batchelor Institute of Indigenous Tertiary Education, as part of the Getting in Touch project.

The app was built on the Jila framework. http://gettingintouch.com.au
