    Thank you Kristina kundze and Zoe Dirse for this unique language sample. Around year 2000 Finnish Broadcasting Company (YLE) sent a document about a young girl that could speak Livonian. She had learned it from her grandfather. I wish we could find that young woman! Best wishes! Esko from Finland

    Perhaps Ērika Krautmane can help you find her. She's a teacher of Livonian courses. Ērika can be reached at her Latvian university address ( at lu.lv)
