More of you are starting to ask questions and understand that this course only work when the student and teacher interact. Today, I want to answer several questions sent by one of our California students.
 |
| At this size, they can also drill for oil! |
A: Yes! In fact, it describes almost any smaller liquid container – a mosquito, for instance (a flying blood bottle) or a gourd IF used to hold a liquid.
Q: Is there a difference between hayulasdi (Labels 1) and hayelasdi (Labels 2)?
A: No. There is still no standardized spelling in Cherokee.
Q: In the crossword, you have pigeon as "woyi" but show pictures of pigeons in the video as gule disgonihi. Is there much of a difference on how they're used in Cherokee?
A: Yes, that was a goof on my part. Gule disgonihi really refers to the mourning dove, while woya or woyi is a more general term applied to all doves and pigeons.
Holiday specials coming to an end:
Right night, you can still get one full year of Speak Cherokee access for $147, reduced from the regular annual price of $200, or $240 if paid monthly. It’s a great deal, and it ends on January 1.
The Cherokee Calendar Calculation and Analysis for any birth date is still $77, reduced from the regular $97.
More to come tomorrow, Christmas Eve!
Until then, Danistayohihv!
