The Siraya language was considered long lost until a recent discovery revealed religious texts written by Dutch missionaries centuries back in a local tongue. They have become a primary source of knowledge about the Siraya language and a basis for its revitalisation.
In the last part of this series, we speak with the Sirayan scholar and activist Jolan Hsieh about her language's path towards revival, the discoveries that enabled it, and the work that lies ahead.
New episodes are released every Tuesday at 21:00 (Taipei, GMT+8).
