There are only about 1,500 native speakers of Arrernte in the world today. The Eastern and Central Arrernte Picture Dictionary is the latest in IAD Press' highly acclaimed series of illustrated Aboriginal language dictionaries. The picture dictionary series has proven to be a fantastic resource for school children and their teachers.
Compiled with the help of linguists and native speakers, this series of dictionaries aids both Arrente-speaking children as well as adult scholars studying the rare language. Forgoing traditional alphabetical order, each dictionary is instead arranged by topic as Arrente society organizes them, giving non-native readers a sense of the culture. Translations are provided in a separate section, as are pronunciation guides.
