Enok Mikael Svonni (born 3 September 1950) is a Swedish Sámi linguist, professor, and translator.
Svonni grew up in a reindeer-herding family in the Gabna Sami village in the municipality of Kiruna, spending the first two years of his life living in a peat goahti.
[1] One of the places he spent time was at his family's camp on Lake Rautas (Northern Sami: Rávttasjávri).
As a translator, he has translated books like Astrid Lindgren's Ronia, the Robber's Daughter and August Strindberg's A Dream Play into Northern Sámi.
Together, they founded a publishing house called Ravda Lágádus[3] in order to publish a wider range of non-fiction, fiction, and children's books in Sámi.
