Cahuilla language
Cahuilla is an endangered Uto-Aztecan language, spoken by the Cahuilla tribe, living in the Coachella Valley, San Gorgonio Pass and San Jacinto Mountains region of Southern California.〔("Cahuilla." ) ''Ethnologue Report for the Language Code: chl.'' (retrieved 13 Dec 2009)〕 Cahuilla call themselves Iviatim, speakers of 'Ivia' - the 'original' language.〔("Cahuilla Indian Language (Iviatim)." ) ''Native Languages of the Americas.'' 2009 (retrieved 13 Dec 2009)〕 A 1990 census revealed 35 speakers in an ethnic population of 800. It is nearly extinct, since most speakers are middle-aged or older.
Three dialects are known to have existed, referred to as Desert, Mountain, and Pass Cahuilla.

Alvin Siva of the Los Coyotes Band of Cahuilla and Cupeño Indians, a fluent speaker, died on June 26, 2009. He preserved the tribe's traditional bird songs, sung in the Cahuilla language, by teaching them to younger generations of Cahuilla people.〔Waldner, Erin. (news/inland/stories/PE_News_Local_E_eobit10.4511347.html "Cahuilla elder, one of last fluent in language, dies." ) ''The Press-Enterprise''. 9 July 2009 (retrieved 13 Dec 2009)〕 Katherine Siva Saubel (b. 1920 - d. 2011) was a native Cahuilla speaker dedicated to preserving the language.
In April 2014, the University of California, Riverside offered free public workshops in the Cahuilla language.
