Wow teach me!! I’m Hopi and have been urbanized my entire life... always wanted to speak Hopi like my grandma.

[@linguistfanatic1895]

Fun fact the closest related languages to Hopi are the Aztec languages for example Nahuatl.

[@tsuwisiwmapolikwaptiwa21]

Hak’i = who is, you have a glottal stop after the hak, meaning stop before saying the I sound paas’i pàasa’a noova = food nonova = eating (pl). tuumoyta = eating (sg) Huvam nonova’a = Y’all eat Just as English, if you have a singular subject you must have a singular verb and if you have pluaral subjects you must have a plural verb. Example: Tiyòoya tuumoyta. The little boy is eating. Totimhòoyam noonova. The little boys are eating. Pay yàasa’a. Tsu’wisiwma

[@steveb1437]

So how would say the little boy doesn't like to eat meat?

[@hunkamajunka2741]

Its beneficial to those who want to learn Hopi but couldn't if you use UPPERCASE and lowercase language. It doesnt help me...aber meine Emilio Reynosa Wollen aus es ist! Go home men.

[@arvismyron1014]

@@steveb1437 Tiyooya sikwit qa kwangwayta. (Basically means doesn't like (eat) meat and understood that he doesn't eat meat).

[@Indoctrinate420]

Love it! It's always awesome to hear and learn a new language, especially from a totally different language family than Indo-European.

[@johnmguzman7491]

My mother grew up in Taos. Now I'm finally learning some of the language. Thank you both!

[@KainoaBlackeagle]

Awesome vid! I actually guessed correct on many of the words before you've given hints. I don't know how, with being Ndéé and Tsalagi.

[@isabelleashike162]

[@jilllynx9044]

Thank you. I haven't been on the rez in years. One forgets. 💚

[@RoyalKnightVIII]

Nice video! Thanks Have you seen the old Hopi Deseret alphabet by any chance? Since there wasn't a written language, guess the Spaniards never bothered huh?, the mormon missionaries tried to create a Hopi Orthography

[@wenmcbrainvansandt5240]

Hak'I" also means "Wait" with the accent more on the "I"

[@tsuwisiwmapolikwaptiwa21]

haaki = wait Hak'i = Who?

[@seanlester6112]

Noova is food in general. Nonova is to eat.

[@carlamiranda2704]

Very int

[@dotdotdotdotdotdotdottod]

Hopi should use hangul 한글 for written words or create an alphabet that fits writing system learn about the creation of 한글 and you will see it is almost the same situation almost

[@RoyalKnightVIII]

Some Aymara in Bolivia have been looking into it It may not work for every language however

[@raphaelitaduckett4148]

I enjoyed it! Esquali.

[@gsockyma2452]

This helps me a lot with my language

[@deboraheduvigen6653]

[@jarice6579]

[@yekceuewa2236]

im muscogee creek and it is very important to learn and preserve our culture if you dont know the language you are a lost indian

[@kellykkat6253]

is there a word thats pronounced.. win^chaw or wen^cha... im not sure how to spell it. this has to do with people if the land can you hear me now? great guardians have come down to our ancestors scared buriel ground. i live near the verde valley river..

[@benw9949]

For "hak'i," does the apostrophe indicate a pause or a glottal stop there? I don't hear it when you say the word. Or is it a contraction? -- I hear the longer vowel in "haaki," though. It sound like either two separate vowels, or else a longer duration (held for two or three beats). -- I just don't hear the glottal stop in "hak'i." :) Thanks, JD!

[@arvismyron1014]

Yes.......the apostrophe mark is a glottal stop which indicates a short stop before saying the rest. In this case, the i is not attached to the k, but by itself when pronouncing the word. Hak.' i

[@kellyhugentugler2104]

Askwali you guys 💞🥰👍

[@edward6246]

Samivaya JD i have a very short sound recording of someone speaking i need translating if you can get back to me please

[@BM-nk1pe]

I really enjoyed this. Would you ever consider teaching Hopi through Skype or whatsapp? I'm part of a language class like that.

[@samivayajd]

That's cool! I'm not that fluent enough anymore to teach conversational Hopi.

[@BM-nk1pe]

are there any ways to learn online without actually going to arizona? What about basic phrases and pronunciation? could you possibly continue this series? :)

[@chauntball]

Are you going to go to the bean dance in tuba city

[@samivayajd]

+chauntball I'm not from Moenkopi

[@chauntball]

Ok just asking

[@chauntball]

What village are you from

[@samivayajd]

Sipaulovi sorry just saw this comment.

[@jumgkookimagines6161]

JD Dalton um yeah hi I'm from Moenkopi or Moencopi. I'm maasaw. I just wanna say that I go to bean dance in Hotevilla and I'm not from there. And some of the words you are pronouncing are incorrect.

[@wenmcbrainvansandt5240]

Each village has their own dialect and their own Hopi words with several meanings. He says certain words with the wrong meaning from where I come from

[@tsuwisiwmapolikwaptiwa21]

Dialects do not make that much difference when we are speaking to each, we still understand each other...."mutual intelligibility". He is a 3rd Mesa speaker, so saying words in 3rd Mesa. exp.: tumala'ta/tumala'yta. 2nd Mesa dialect does not have the "y" sound in the word, just a glottal stop. Pay yàasa'a.

[@michaelireefe8118]

@@tsuwisiwmapolikwaptiwa21 I’m from Shungopavi, second Mesa. I grew up urbanized because my other grandma is Tewa/San Juan and was brought to Denver due to the Indian relocation act. I want to learn my language. Serious about learning. I just don’t have the resources to know whom I would speak to.
