Conversational Navajo Lesson: Emotion Vocabulary

[@ElvaGay]

The best way I know how to keep up my Native language, since no one else here in Oklahoma speaks it. Hearing it, keeps me fresh. Thank you KZbin.

[@hilbert2547]

ich habe gerade angefangen Navajo zu lernen. Wie lernst du hast du Tipps? (Ich habe die Bücher: conversional Navajo Workbook, Diné Bizaad Speak, Write Navajo, Fun with Navajo Verbs, The Navajo Verb udn Diné Bizaad Redisvoering the Navajo Language.Wobei ich sagen muss, die Lakota Grammatik toppt alle Navajo Lehrbücher, ich bin nicht so ganz zufrieden

[@earlbig11]

Your sound is so clear. Thank you.

[@sweetbre5383]

We miss your tutor sessions! lol I'm in the process of relearning Navajo language. I'm telling you it seems so hard. Come Back & bring us more videos

[@sfkjn2311]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful language. I was a long time AZ resident and had many Navajo friends who taught me some phrases. Please post more.

[@ZanetaTisi]

I love it . I am full blood but regret not learning the written language and reading Navajo these teach my children .

[@vampapi]

[@twylitejones]

Yá'át'teéh daybreaker.im trying to learn.I was not raised or taught our language.and as a result, it has been very difficult to learn on my own.Ahéheé for your videos. You dont know how much it means to me.good day to you

[@jhonaraujo6225]

I think you are doing a great work teaching us your beautiful lenguague . Greeting from Venezuela. ❤

[@TheGermanfreshman]

For me as German this language sounds like some kind of liquid knowledge, sounds from the upper ones. Thanks for sharing.

[@amadaacunia8613]

Thank you for teaching the Navajo language . You are keeping it a love for us navajo's. I know it's taught in lesson. But this a very personal way for us.

[@holichit1]

im half navajo and this is the most beautiful language in the world

[@MissAdoreDior]

Love your videos. Keep up the good work because every little bit helps to teach our language to the younger generation :-)

[@david_oliveira71]

First time trying (to learn) Navajo - which is the most difficult in my most difficult languages list. Interesting language!

[@ChiefS559]

Your videos are VERY helpfull.. I have been married to a Beautifull Navajo woman for 15yrs. Can you make one that helps a in-law properly address the family.. Aunty Uncle Niece Nephew etc....

[@roakybaby1000]

[@staisha988]

[@vivianmcalexander9999]

Thank you! I so enjoy listening to you and learning. God bless you. 💝🌅👍

[@fam.jorgbeckmann4germanvik749]

(part2) .... that we can read the single words *i.both* languages Navajo+ English/ American. Thank you for being such a good +quiet/ calm teacher speaking every word sooo clearly. It makes a lot of fun to the 2of us learning your Native language i.this way. Thus, we like to try talking (relatively) correctly to your Native brothers +sisters during our next visit to the USA *after* this horrible Covid19 pandemic. Pls keep on teaching i.this perfect way. May God bless you+ your family +keep you away from CoV19 !!! from: Irissia +Joerg (=Jorge) Beckmann, University City of D-48165 Muenster, NorthRhine- Westfalia, Fed. Rep.of Germany

[@LZmiljoona]

Very cool! I like the sound of Navajo, it sounds calming :)

[@lowellupchurch1609]

Wow! I loved going along with this video. I really enjoy how different languages work. Navajo is such a challenge but plays such an important role in American History that I hate the idea of it dying out. Also playing this video at .75 speed or whatever really helps you hear the subtle notes that are necessary to get it right! Again, I really enjoy this video.

[@thialove2121]

Very well done! Thank you.

[@jennidawn2]

I love your videos it helps me a lot....wish I could talk it more fluently!!

[@MontePrima8539]

I love your videos! Well done!

[@purespirit9]

Your so perfect with your language & so proud of you. Thank God your Navajo, blessings =)

[@intensefrank]

Trying to communicate with my mother-in-law. This helps. More posts!!!

[@ballerNAZ]

hit the wrong button. my cousins can speak and understand Navajo very well, but i don't understand. I have been learning by just listening to others speak. I have learned more Navajo with my friend's mother. she has a lot of patience in repeating the words or sentence bk to me.I often get made fun of because I speak the Navajo language that of a white man would. Thanks for ur videos.

[@iloveyertle]

Thank you so much for this vid! I just started studying, and this helped me a lot with practicing reading to pronunciation. The only thing I'm having trouble grasping is the patterns - why some use "nisin" and some don't, for example. Maybe you could make a video on this?

[@tessjones5987]

Very lovely sounding language. fascinating.

[@joycegonzales4994]

I really enjoy your Chanel

[@mosichat]

I'm hyped you did this!

[@bellylaughing]

Brilliant! It would be very helpful to have your emotes available to print out. LOL

[@sweetsonya39-]

I really like your videos.

[@mikemoore2272]

Great stuff thanks,love your language hope I can pick up some at least

[@zhertiamgonzales5650]

Ashode, continue these! Aheehe!

[@longinzaczek5857]

I am wondering about pronounciation of "Ł" in Navajo. In Poland we use this letter for sund close to English W (like in Winnipeg). In Navajo it sounds like something between soundless F and H.

[@daybreakwarrior]

Hmmm... I'd say about 35% & about 25% are not so much fluent but can speak it very well.

[@TheMysteriousRiddler]

Would you be able to do a video on Navajo verbs?

[@ghenry739]

Awesome Job!!! thank you for this!!!

[@FinnishPractice]

Great video man. I really wanna learn Navajo, it`s a vey interesting Language.

[@Eveditah]

[@JaromWorthen]

Great, these videos are very helpful, but is there anyway to get some audio file downloaded? I would love to practice at work.

[@Fayanora]

If you haven't already done it, you should do a video about Navajo curse words! :)

[@cesariquite2090]

Es muy interesante el idioma quizás un día pueda hablarlo

[@purespirit9]

Excellent! Your so perfect with your language Terry so i suggest you made your own website title Daybreakwarrior's emoticons the absolute correct emotions in Navajo. =)

[@cynthiabegay2618]

How do you say im sorry

[@purespirit9]

Excellent! Your so perfect with your language Terry so i suggest you make your own website title it "DAYBREAK WARRIOR'S EMOTICON'S" =)

[@malachidaw9730]

Daybreakwarrior, Can you make a video regarding the Diné language being spoken different everywhere?

[@Cimmarose]

Your emoticons were cute.. :) I have a question tho. Is there a difference in male and female answers to these different emotions, in first person?

[@Cimmarose]

okie, Thank you... I love your videos. :)

[@LarthVolos]

It is really hard to learn any language in online cause no material available. Make more audio books, for example for kids.

[@irvinson4026]

Hi Thinking about using your videos here at our school (Dził Ná’oodiłiidi), would that be o.k.?

[@YuriCel]

Please, I need to talk to you. How can I contact you? I'm from Brazi

[@pazuzu126]

Are a lot of Navajos still fluent in the language? How many speakers would you say there are?

[@ballerNAZ]

[@rebekahcraven9390]

So, the ' symbol suggest talking about oneself whereas the absence of ' means third person form of phrase?

[@brodyhill1449]

shi' means me or mine. ni' means you or yours. The ' means stop. Like say shi and stop abruptly.

[@hype3165]

how do you say my name in navajo im also navajo myself but speak english my names(Arayah Joanne B)

[@daybreakwarrior]

You'd say, "Arayah Joanne B." It would only be in Navajo if it had a description or it described you.

When two Dine's meet, they will greet with a handshake, but never "how are you doing"?. after they greet on another, they will go fr there to other things....

[@jguccijacgucci9160]

That's a hard core herpey got on the upper lip

[@skatee99]

How do you properly pronounce bilagaana? And, is it actually still a common word Navajo use for white people? Thank's for such a great site!!

[@puffalump76]

[@daybreakwarrior]

No, words are gender neutral in Navajo. I can tell fluent Navajo speakers who aren't too English savvy in that they will mess up all their pronouns in English, like saying, "My dad she went to his wife's house to get his keys."

[@DrWhom]

such mix-ups even occur between Indo-European languages: in English, you say his or her key depending on the sex of the owner of the key (and so in all Germanic languages) whereas in French it is always sa clé because the key is grammatically feminine. As a result, French people speaking English make similarly startling mistake with his and her!
