HLINGIT WORD ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Origin of Copper
After 20 years sitting on breakthrough knowledge while I worked the avenues for publishing and the funds and formats, the spirit and readiness… at last I am relieved to say the great Celtic linguistic knowledge that I have been blessed with is coming out to the public to be of use.
I am very happy to announce the publication of my Native American work, by way of the Hlingit language, a language of the people of Southeast Alaska and the Yukon.
This book brings to light not only easy ways to grasp a Native American language, but it also puts the whole of human language into perspective, in a whole new light, and with it the history of humanity, from earliest beginnings.
The story is a traditional myth about the origin of copper…

NEW ZEALAND MāORI WORD ENCYCLOPEDIA
Completed in 2007, the Māori work was my first due to my adoptive language and culture of Samoa, and my land of birth, New Zealand. I am happy that the book has been well received, and grateful to users, believers, keen learners and devoted teachers, earnest translators and people of social conscience and scientific mind for giving this book place in the bookshelves of the nation’s libraries, people’s homes and shops.
I hope I can manage to reprint the book as time is coming for that. If you have benefitted from the book and would like to support its reprinting, please do contact me. As I support the publishing through my teacher’s salary, as well as dealing with writing and travel, it’s a challenge for me. But I know the book can be of use to many more people. I would love to hear from my customers. Not being in New Zealand nowadays, it’s something I miss, to enjoy the success of the book more at first hand and help people to get full benefit from it.

WORD ENCLOPEDIA OF GAUL
In 2007 I visited France, to stimulate my progress on the Gaul project. I stayed with WWOOF program gardeners, it was wonderful, and I learned and saw great things. I expect this book will be actually in French, so I’m having to improve my French. To do this, I’ve been reading French rather than English novels for the past three years. Generally, I choose Fred Vargas’ detective novels.
In this book I plan to let my medicine woman spirit loose. I believe my time in the Middle East starting September 2011 will help prepare me in this. As I love to bring together the best of science and culture, I should be able to get more of a grounding in how the medical and chemical history of the Mediterranean sprung up. I’m expecting this to be the next Word Encyclopedia, but life has a way of springing surprises on me.
Also this time in the Middle East will prepare me for the Gàidhlig and English book projects, as it represents that other major root of human language other than Neandertal-Celtic. (See the Hlingit Word Encyclopedia’s 170+ page Bibliography & Notes for the story of human language from prehistoric times.)
