Northern Chinook Jargon in real life: GameSense brochure from BCLC
This is probably more Chinook Jargon than you’re used to reading at one pop — take it easy!
But in case you’ve missed it so far, here’s the newest Indigenous-language pamphlet from the BC Lottery Corporation. (Click that link to read the whole thing.)
It’s in the Northern Dialect, so if you can understand the wording in the old “Kamloops Wawa” newspaper, you can work with this.
Excellent stuff. So, this whole brochure exists in fluent Northern Chinook Jargon? I’m amazed by this. The spelling “karc” took me a little bit. Was it a frequent spelling of “karts” = “cards”?

That < c > reflects the “ts” sound as traditionally written in Chinuk Pipa, the Chinook Jargon alphabet of British Columbia.
