The Southern Saami language is one of several Saami languages in Scandinavia and Northwest Russia. Today the Southern Saami language is an endangered language; most of the speakers are older people. This article describes an effort to transmit the language to the children in Svahken Sijte, the southernmost reindeer herding community in Norway
