North Slavey is a Dene language spoken primarily by the Dene people in the Northwest Territories of Canada. It is one of the two main dialects of the Slavey language, the other being South Slavey. North Slavey is used in various communities, including Fort Good Hope and Deline, and is an important part of the cultural identity of its speakers. The language is part of the larger Athabaskan language family, which includes several other languages spoken across North America. Efforts are ongoing to preserve and revitalize North Slavey, as it faces challenges from declining numbers of fluent speakers. Educational programs and community initiatives aim to promote its use among younger generations.
