Creation and Usage Notes

Every time I see this word I remember Nichole Galicia and the work she put into using Kinuk'aaz. Never have I worked with an actor more dedicated to perfecting their conlang work than Nichole. It was a pleasure and a privilege. -David J. Peterson 02:04, 18 February 2020 (PST)
