Abstract
his latest volume of the First Nations Language Readers continues the evolution of the series and crosses further boundaries in a number of ways.Once again, we are able to present the very first collection of stories to ever see print in a particular Indigenous language of the Americas.I deliberately refer to Aaniiih/Gros Ventre in this way to highlight one obvious boundary that is being crossed.All previous volumes in this series have originated in Canada, while the people popularly known as the "Gros Ventre" are currently located solely within the United States.But such borders are recent and had no meaning for First Nations through the millennia of life here on Turtle Island, and traditional territories were not so restricted.In fact, the earliest recorded European contact with the Aaniiih took place in what is now Saskatchewan.I like to think we are helping the language to come home and be heard here once again.And if we are to hear the language again, we need also to recognize the true name of the speakers.Thus, we also hope to redress a misnomer that has persisted among English and French speakers since that early contact when the Aaniiih or "White Clay" people were erroneously referred to as the Gros Ventre or "big bellies.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
