Last November, the Lakota language rocketed into the 21st Century with no looking back: LLC introduced mobile web-access to the the New Lakota Dictionary-Online at the Language Summit in Rapid City the weekend of November 15-16.
The NLD Mobile Dictionary connects your phone with the NLD-O, and is optimized to be faster and more responsive than any other dictionary web-app for a smart phone. It allows the user to call up Lakota words and find translations and pronunciations, connecting directly to the NLD-O web site but with an interface designed for mobile phone. This will allow language students to practice speaking anywhere, without feeling tied to a computer terminal or a big printed book.
LLC staff at the Summit saw new users immediately texting friends and sharing the web-app.
