One of the challenges for language study and revitalisation has been generational connections: users and learners, speakers and acquirers, cultural insiders and entrants. Few studies have systematically investigated these critical relationships and their effects on learning, identity and community formation. This book is an important instalment in how to validate and benefit from intergenerational community resources, giving meaning and depth to the adjective community or heritage qualifying the noun 'languages .
