I haven't heard this in "tawnkiiyazh". It tugged at my heart. I wish I could speak it. My grandpa left it with him and passed on. I got from this conversation they were talking about food and celebration. Le bullet, le zaff, le tea and cake, pigs and square dancing. Love it thank you
@SkinnyWmn69 Yeah, it's a shame there are not so many native-speakers around. But I think you can do it. Good luck with your Cree, Spanish and whichever linguistic adventures you embark on :)
@SaimDI I agree, but it's much easier if there are people around you who know the language so you learn how to say things the right way. My grandparents passed away when I was very young and out of shame in their language they did not pass it down to thier children. But I do agree putting work in does help.I studied Spanish and Cree at university, but I went to Guatemala for a month and therefore can speak more spanish than cree, because I used it with native speakers.
Love it. My grandparents spoke this language but society made them ashamed to use it and they did not pass it on to their children, such a loss. My family spoke this language since Red River, I would love to learn it but I am so terrible with learning languages

I'd love to learn to speak Michif. Unfortunately, I only picked out a few French words, I'm terrible with languages...
