Oklahoma, USA (KTEN): Technology is allowing Suzanne White Eagle to hear her native tongue -- the Ponca language -- spoken back to her. White Eagle, a 71-year-old Ponca tribal citizen, and 80-year-old Henry A. Lieb Junior are among a handful of people who speak the Ponca language. The native speakers record their language today with the help of the Phraselator P-2. It's a handheld device capable of recording and playing back thousands of phrases, words, songs and stories.
