Xaad Kil · Xaayda Kil

Built in Both Haida Dialects

We respectfully acknowledge that Ride N Share operates on the ancestral, unceded territory of the Haida Nation, stewards of Haida Gwaii since time immemorial. Ride N Share supports the revival of Skidegate Haida (Xaayda Kil) and Old Massett Haida (Xaad Kil), in addition to English and French. Every menu, button, and notification can be viewed in the language of this land.

🌱 A Tool for Language Revival

Haida is one of the most endangered languages in the world — fewer than 20 fluent first-language speakers remain. By weaving both dialects into an app locals use every day, Ride N Share aims to put Haida words back into daily life: in greetings, in directions, in thank-yous between drivers and riders. Every ride becomes a small act of language revival.

This is not decorative. It is stewardship. The more the app is used in Haida, the more the language lives.

🪶 Calling All Haida Citizens & Elders

We built the first-pass translations with care, but we are not fluent speakers. We humbly ask Haida citizens — especially elders and language keepers — to help us correct, refine, and grow the translations so they are worthy of the language.

How Your Edits Go Live — Community Approved

1️⃣

You Edit Freely

Log in, find the word or phrase, and rewrite it in the dialect and grammar you know to be correct. No approval needed to propose a change.

2️⃣

Two Friends Say Yes

Pick 2 people you trust (elders, language teachers, family). Each gets an email with the old & new text and a simple Yes or No button.

3️⃣

It Goes Live

When both friends click Yes, the translation updates automatically across the whole app. No gatekeepers, no committees, no waiting on us.

The community approves the community's language. That is the point.

Sign Up as a Language Steward

Open to all Haida citizens. Elders especially welcome. Háw'aa.

We'll email you when the editor portal is live. No spam, ever.

Our Philosophy

You & Me & The Trees = Unity

You benefit as the rider. I benefit as the driver. The planet benefits because one less car is on the road.

No ride on Ride N Share is just a transaction. It's a small act of community — a choice that says: my choices affect you, and the trees.
