Cup'ig Language
The Cup’it speak a distinct language that is a sub-dialect of Central Alaska Yup’ik language and is the only dialect of its kind in the universe. A Cup’ig dictionary was published in 2003.  Many English primary books have been translated into Cup’ig language are are used by the Cup'ig Immersion class. Presently, pre-recorded traditional stories are being written and will be published in the future and be used by the Cup'ig Bilingual class.
