O'siyo AwiAdisi, I have never been a great student. Only once have I tried to learn a second language and that was in the early 70's .I had a hard time then and I got to hear it everyday,so i am having a realy hard time with Cherokee, is there anything you could suggest that might help me get this language ? with respect Rick

hiya rick, Marie Junaluska, has made a cd with some simply phrases a brief introduction i would call it to the cherokee language. i suppose she speaks the Kituwah dialect as Siyo is the greeting that is taught on there. also the western nation website has a language page and they teach with the sounds.
 
sounds hmm if i may ask our language teacher, the Enunciation of his/her name AwiAdisi, i have heard 2 different enunciations i suppose of the Adisi( running) part used in person , one is uh dee see, and the other was Uh deesh. i was abit curious as to which one or if both is correct.
 
i am told the uh deesh enunciation is more of an AniKituwah dialect, which seems to be a 6 on a scale of 1-7 for extinction.
 
a curious student

O`siyo sevenbearswalking

Did you see my post on the Cherokee Letter and Vowel word list?
a = ah ; i = ee
AwiAdisi = a-wi a-di-si [Ahwee ahDEEsee

I mostly speak and teach the Eastern Dialect. Just for a few words there is barely a difference between Eastern and Western Dialects.

Tsigalagina (I am male).

I belong to a yahoo group called AniTsalagi Language.
oginali Lady Spirithawk is the list owner.

If I can figure out how to get my e-mail out, people can ask for personal requests for translations and home study lessons.
