Abstract
In the Russian Federation 63 minority languages are mentioned in the “Red Book of the Languages of Russia”. This means that they are practically dying out and it is highly important to make and preserve original recordings of these languages and to prepare their documentation. Arctic peoples of Russia are demographically small and the number of speakers using their languages is decreasing dramatically. The paper describes three projects related to two Northern Languages — Nenets and Nganasan: the Nenets Audio Dictionary, the Nganasan Audio Dictionary and the Russian-Nenets Online Multimedia Phrase-book.
