  • Are you serious there are only 390 Gidwah speakers left?

  • vV!

    Very different... in some ways... very similar in others-- at least, when written.  But when spoken, the differences loom even larger. That's why i'm posting eastern- to preserve this dialect. There are only 390 native eastern (Giduwa) speakers (that have been identified) still living. That isn't much.

  • This is considerably different than the way its spoken in the western/overhill dialect. I didn't know it differed that much.

    The same conversation in that dialect:

    o'siyo (hello)

    tohistu (how are you?)

    osda (good)

    nihina (and you?)

    howa (okay/alright)
