I stumbled upon another pretty good Ojibwe resource and thought it may be of use to
some.
It's called the Ojibwe Vocabulary Project, and is the result of a meeting of
elders that took place in 2009 to discuss the addition of new words into the language.
You can either purchase a hardcopy book or download a PDF from here:

Sounds good but it seems to have done down. Any idea what the problem is, Hrhenry?

This is the error: Could not load file or assembly 'App_Licenses' or one of its
dependencies. There is not enough space on the disk. (Exception from HRESULT:
0x80070070)
I was there less than two hours ago, so this is recent. I could probably post the PDF if
interested, otherwise hopefully they'll get on the error and fix.

Ojibwe is certainly one of my favourite N. American langs, so I'd be happy to have the pdf. Though, I'm happy to wait and see if it comes back online first.
Thanks for the help, HrHenry.

It's actually a very contemporary dictionary, looking at it. I have to chuckle at the
thought of elders sitting around discussing entries such as "shart".
There are some good technology-oriented terms, though.

I've looked through it a bit and there are some truly great words. Quite hilarious overall. :)
