Linguist Carolyn Quintero has been working with the Osage tribe of Oklahoma and Osage elders in an attempt to preserve the tribe's dying language.

She just published "A Grammar of Osage" with the help of a grant from the National Endowment for Humanities through the University of Colorado. She hopes to get another grant to turn her tape recordings of Osage elders speaking the language into CDs.
