Marʉaweka! Introducing #CPOW! Here's the launch of our Comanche Phrase of the Week series. We will be doing a word a day and then a phrase or phrases of the week using the words already introduced.
This week we are starting with some animals and "this is".
Have you been practicing your words of the day? Get ready and practice along with the phrase. Next week, we'll build on the words and phases from this week.
Itsa "This is" (probably close enough to see and/or touch).
Itsa = i (pronoun for close) + tsa (topic marker but does not mean "is")
Itsa kʉtseena. (This is a coyote.)
Itsa puuku. (This is a horse.)
Itsa sarii. (This is a dog.)
Itsa waʔoo. (This is a cat.)
Itsa pimoroo. (This is a cow.)
