Tonia Jo Hall showing her sister Alayna Eagleshield How to lele aka Trill aka lulu....Practicing helps you alot! Dont be shy !! ALL YOU NATIVE AMERICAN GIRLS perfect you lele/trill/lulu.....

[@sabrinazarogoza8686]

So fascinating to me to see how many cultures this is a part of and it always signifies joy. I had no idea that our Native American tribes do this as well as the Arabs.

[@TemujinMSM]

I found that out at Standing Rock!

[@AngelinaSkylove_719]

Yes, we do it all the time. 😄

[@Jojo_Flake]

Ethiopians do the same thing too when singing

[@MCH555]

We're all connected! ❤️

[@biioinv1012]

​@@Jojo_Flake 😮all Africans as well

[@jamagrant6967]

That quilt above the bed is absolutely stunning!

[@CaptainAMAZINGGG]

Jama Grant gotta love a good quilt.

[@depressedcat2561]

I noticed that there are so many cultures that do this. Arabs, Africans, Indians, and Native Americans. That’s fascinating

[@gabemccue3497]

I once trilled during class and got in trouble for it😝😝😝😝😝

[@CaptainAMAZINGGG]

Gabe mccue racists

[@mintyrose6686]

Gabe mccue oh dear! XD

[@kbarts316]

I did it once during gym when I was running and two girls started smiling and laughing like "whut in the world??". XD

[@habeshawit2008]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@habeshawit2008]

I had a friend named Josh who does that in gym class

[@samiyajaylani2009]

We do this in Somalia too :D Especially in wedding and ceremonies!! We call it elele

[@najma2613]

All africans/arabs (whom are by products of africans) and native people from the americas do this. It's global and beautiful.

[@s.1489]

not all africans, seems to just be the north, east and south, idk if we may be related waaaaaay back but west africa doesnt

[@atlnigga3818]

Mwansa Samantha M yes west africa and even southern don’t do this.....

[@atlnigga3818]

Namo rin Huh?Arab????where in tha world you even get that?do everyone a favor and delete your comment no offense....

[@s.1489]

SoutheastasiaOceania 1. i’m southern african, people from Zambia down to South Africa ululate, its a very common fact and i see it at home celebrations. 2. i have seen in documentaries and films that people from the Arab region also ululate, search ululate on youtube and the first few videos that come up are of east and southern africans along with people from the Middle Eastern region. you came on the internet to fight for no reason lol, i don’t know why you’re angry, at least search and educate yourself on cultures before you make bold statements, you’re only embarrassing yourself

[@Txitxitt]

We do this in arabia arabic tribes always do like this when they want to celebrate Btw Indigenous women are really pretty

[@jvampyre1744]

Is it just the women in arabic countries that do it? Or do the men ululate as well?? And for same of different reasons?

[@معرفةوترفيه-ت2ظ]

@@jvampyre1744 For most of the Arab world, only women ululate. I think most guys attempted it at least once in their life though.

[@jabu1591]

@@jvampyre1744Men don’t ululate in Arab countries, it’s a false stereotype typically seen in family guy. I’m not Arab but Berber and our men don’t ululate but the women do for celebration

[@MrDavidrex]

you are spreading smiles woman, have a good year sister.

[@ahaley3292]

Thanks for the instructions! My students are reading "Habibi" and I wanted to know what trilling sounded like. I plan to play this video for them= )

[@carolloughridge8483]

It’s an absolutely beautiful sound the most amazing vocalization the human being can utter in my humble opinion i’m having a bit of difficulty though, because I lost my two front teeth and it’s a little bit harder to do it now but I had a Shoshone tell me that I did it like a razz girl and I’m white

[@Lauraorientale3110]

lelelelelele!!! wow awesome!

[@Penelope642]

Shared this with my friend who was an exchange from Santa Fe Indian School who taught us to do this in Hawaii. Good memories.

[@peneleapai]

*WOW that's awesome*

[@rickysanchez8709]

I found in many culture that the woman does during special occasions. Hindu women does something similar sound at weddings. Its beautiful to hear.

[@SmashinAdams]

East Indians have the same make-up as West Indians; those are our cousins across the ocean. PS - Not all of them are Hindi.

[@jobullock111]

This made me giggle and smile, thank you !

[@leilawitherspoon503]

great video and two beautiful women !!

[@slimthugga2666]

I LOVE NATIVE WOMEN

[@kbarts316]

This is a great video! I always come back when I want something to smile about.😄 I shocked my folks when they first discovered that I could lulu. My auntie and cousins were floored and lost their minds. Heck, I surprised myself because I never practiced before, let alone even knew I had that gift. Mom says that I should always practice and never lose my ability to lulu. She even said at some point that I should enter in a lulu contest the next time we go to another powwow. It's even funnier because I am half-white. I guess that's my indian spirit coming out. 🤣

[@antonitayellowboy4210]

love you Tonia jo hall

Lelelelele!

[@DragonWriterGirl]

Maybe this is silly or clueless to ask, but does anyone know if it's okay for non-native people to do this? As a white woman this looks cool but I don't want to culturally appropriate or disrespectfully / inappropriately use someone else's expression

[@whitefawn01]

So cute, keep it up!

[@whitefawn01]

[@genecoppedge5972]

Lol, too funny. Hey you could do a home course study, but wait if you order now we will include a recipe for Indian frybread. If not fluent in LELELE in 30 days feel free to return for a full refund but keep the recipe as a gift just for trying.

[@peneleapai]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@K.MorrisDavison]

I am very interested in Native American culture and think it would be fun to learn how to trill like a Native American, but I am an Australian without a drop of Native American blood to speak of so I'm not sure it would be appropriate for me to learn it.

[@rezkidz841]

thx for the advice

[@jvampyre1744]

Us english/white people call it "ululating", but upon doing some research, ive found it called different things in different countries. As someone who wants to learn, im asking ANYONE that comes from a country, or culture, that ululates... Reply to my comment letting me know what YOU call it where youre from :)

where from this tremo meaning called? would it not be ululation too?

[@mtbgreatmusicmtbsmothyloun7424]

Hahahah yes yes

[@jessicamshannon]

Hmmm. How do I ask this. How much is enough native american to say "I'm part native american". For example, my Great Grandma was native, giving me juuuust enough genetic material to tan better than most white people. But seriously, I would feel SO SILLY if I ever said "Oh yeah I'm part native american". Fuck was she great great gma?? I think she was just one great. I only met her once and don't know about that side of my family. But it's a running joke, the whole "I'm 1/64th native america (or in my case 1/8th).

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

jessicamshannon If your grandparent is/was native, yes. In my opinion, as long as you have it in your blood. But tbh what matters is the heart.

[@kristinboxwell]

My bloodline is so diluted with many different ethnicity. But it's the opposite for me, because our paternal side on my maternal side, is all white, not sure what specifically was told Welsh but I have an English last name so I'm not certain, my grandfather (my mothers father passed when I was a baby) never met any of his side of the family) my grandmother on my mother's side had a white father as well again not sure what specifically. Never met a single one of that side either. 🤷🏻‍♀️ my native side is all I know. I married a native man, so my kids bloodline is a bit stronger.

[@arcticablue]

Lol!!!!!!
