Kreyòl-English glosses for creating and translating materials in Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) fields in the MIT-Haiti Initiative:
This is a dynamic document that is being edited on an ongoing basis, thanks to feedback from MIT-Haiti workshop participants and from internet users (via email, social media, etc.). Prof. Paul Belony of the MIT-Haiti Initiative has been leading the efforts to organize and update this glossary on an ongoing basis. And we’ve benefitted from the input of more than 250 STEM faculty who have participated in MIT-Haiti workshops in Haiti since 2012. Now we very much look forward to input from Kreyòl-speaking colleagues with fluency in STEM fields, especially those with experience teaching STEM in Kreyòl.
There are two key details regarding the method and objectives of these glosses:
- We are using the term “glosses” in the technical linguistic sense where a morpheme in language X is associated with a translation-equivalent morpheme in language Y. These X<–>Y correspondences help with translation (in this case between Kreyòl and English). These are the “glosses” that we often find in articles published in scientific journals (like Language) where linguists routinely use this kind of glosses to translate examples from languages that target readers do not understand.
- This document is not a dictionary. A dictionary is a document that surveys the vocabulary that is already in use in the language. The pedagogical activities of the MIT-Haiti workshops clearly demonstrate that the vocabulary of many Kreyòl speakers, including teachers and students, have gaps in certain scientific domains. This is due to the fact, related to historical colonial and neo-colonial prejudice, that the formal teaching of STEM in Haitian schools has traditionally excluded Kreyòl in written materials. Therefore, one positive side-effect of MIT-Haiti activities (workshops in STEM, production of high-quality Kreyòl materials, etc.) is that we are enriching the language with new scientific vocabulary that can serve as an indispensable resource for teachers and students. These activities contribute to the lexical development of the language. Such development is not the goal of dictionaries whose purposes is to survey existing vocabulary—dictionaries do not introduce new terminology. This is why our inventory of glosses is dynamic. Ours is not an exercise in prescription. On the contrary, it’s an organic bottom-up process whereby we solicit contributions and feedback from teachers and students and other interested parties who use Kreyòl in scientific fields.
Many thanks to Pwòf Paul and to all the pioneer educators who are helping promote Kreyòl as indispensable instrument to open up access to quality education for all in Haiti.
