LABORATORY OF MOLECULAR AND BEHAVIOURAL NEUROSCIENCE: Our lab sits on territory stolen from the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) people. They have resided on this land for thousands of years and we honour their stewardship. As uninvited guests of diverse heritage, we are grateful for our place here.

Lesson 4: hən̓q̓əm̓in̓əm


The hə̩̩n̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ language is beautiful and unique in allowing xʷməθkʷəy̓əm to engage with their cultural heritage. While it is under threat, it is still being spoken by xʷməθkʷəy̓əm people.

The hən̓q̓əm̓in̓əm name for objects carries information about what that object was used for.
