	~~<b>Description:</b>~~

	Coast Tsimshian, known by its speakers as Sm'algyax, is a Tsimshianic language spoken by the Tsimshian nation in northwestern British Columbia and southeastern Alaska. Sm'algyax means literally "real or true language."
	Strictly speaking, Tsimshian is not a language indigenous to Alaska, but has been spoken there since under the leadership of missionary William Duncan moved to Metlakatla on Annette Island in 1887. A few Tsimshian also live in Ketchikan. As of 2002, about 50 of an ethnic population of 1,300 Tshimshian in Alaska speak the language.
	The Sm'algyax orthography in use today is based on that developed by Tsimshianicists since the 1960s, beginning with Bruce Rigsby's work on the Gitksan language and including John A. Dunn's work on Sm'algyax and Marie-Lucie Tarpent's work on Nisga'a and Southern Tsimshian. Dunn, Tarpent, and Susan Marsden substantially revised it for School District No. 52 (Prince Rupert) when preparing the Suwilaay'msga Na Ga'niiyatgm, Teachings of Our Grandfathers book series in the early 1990s, with the blessing of the Tsimshian hereditary chiefs.
