I'm learning Cherokee through Mango and Memrise! I'm so happy that there are ways to learn this language, anywhere in the World now through the internet! Yayyyy!!

Great to see people that value their own language in their own lands. Their ancestors would weep with joy.

My great uncle and grandmother spoke it to me. I stopped when the world only saw me as a black woman and treated me badly. I miss this and it breaks my heart when ppl look at me and call me indian woman. I will never forget and I taught my son but, living as a black woman with Tsaligi blood is hard.

I am an American Irishman.....72 . My wife and I are trying to learn Cherokee. We are great ful to our teacher.

I had tears of joy listening to these little ones learning the Cherokee language, and listening to the whole podcast. Wado. ♥️

That is great teaching the children Cherokee language. In school.

I love that they are doing this!

Ive just returned from a Cherokee Emersion trip. The depth, importance, and ties between language and culture are so important in defining ones identity... After visiting Kituwah and Cherokee Central School, I only wish other schools had progams like theirs.

To be able to speak the native language both school and at home the parents also have to speak with the children, I'm from vn ( indigenous people ) and we never lost our native language we always speak our language among our community. Keep up and teach the children speak native language,

We have immersion schools in Hawai'i for over twenty years. Mahalo to our brothers and sisters who are saving their native language!

to can't believe people would punish them for speaking their language that is so heart breaking. I think the Cherokee language is beautiful I have tried to learn it myself.

This is awesome! I wanna learn the Cherokee language and teach my kids. I never learned my Cherokee Heritage. I would love to have my future kids to a school like this. I am learning currently from youtube

My great grandma a Tsalagi lived in Tennessee, She spoke Tsalagi, but hardly used it. I will learn it though I must.

It's so great to see our language and way of life being preserved for our future generations, Sgi !!!

This video was amazing! I am an ESL teacher and I showed this video to my young students one day during a lesson on Sequoyah and the Cherokee Syllabary. I always tell my students how important it is to know more than one language, and that they should work hard to be proficient in their first language as they learn English. It was so beautiful to see all of these people, young and old, learning to keep this language alive.

Very encouraging. I hope the momentum grows and grows. Sad that so many languages have disappeared in the last 150 years, but what a great blessing that you've caught the Cherokee language before it's too late.

This is truly humbling. Rescuing your own identity in a natural and beautiful way.

Beautiful work!! Hope it’s still alive and growing stronger!!! Aho

I love this! What a wonderful thing to teach our children.

This is so cool. As many Americans, I too have native American blood in me but its so lost now. Im mostly Hispanic and white but when i have kids i would like them to speak Cherokee just to keep the tradition alive. This beautiful language shouldn't die

I just recently found out I’m half Native American and European, after 18 years of being so confused on what I am. It may be too late for me to learn now but I’m so honored to be a part of this culture, no matter what tribe my family came from.

Yes!!! Keep learning that Native Language...

Iroquoian culture is truly one of the greatest in the world, up there with Athenian IMO, and it deserves much more attention and praise than it gets. I mean seriously, their confederation is the longest continuously running democracy in human history, and if that alone doesn’t make preserving their culture worthwhile than I don’t know what does

Okay, so these kids actually speak Cherokee... I'm just speechless.. And I got tears in my eyes.

Excellently done short video! Thank you so very much for feeling the need, listening to the great Creator's voice and putting in the effort time and energy to bring this about. Especially for the opening segment where you had Robert speak a few words about the past. It wasn't so much about the words themselves allthough they were truth that much be spoken and realized but for the man and his companion, that means the world to me.

I am so sorry that happened to you. My great great mother spoke it until the day she died and no one bothered her about it. Her name was America.

I'm still learning! My papa is proud!

OMG the Welsh went through the same thing! The called it the "Welsh Not." :( My hope is that these languages grow and people are no longer afraid to speak their own beautiful languages. Welsh is growing again, which makes me happy.

Shayo, may the world know to say Gvgeyu over bad or ill things. This feels like home to watch this video & brings fourth a sense of ground like my natural nature. Being half & mixed, yet looking differently paler, I didn't fit into many crowds as a little one, yet carry it with me always. Sincerely Paul~.

I really love learning ancient languages and when I found out about this language I'm learning it

♥ this is the first time I have seen Bo Taylor's face! haha... a few years back I was on a regular email list for his lessons!! =D

the elder cherokee ppl or great grandparents like cherokee ppl look similar to koreans/mongolians/kazahkstan people. The language itself sounds very similar to korean, it almost seems like a mixture of korean and mongolian..

wow, ive always been interested in languages like russian but now I have a new interest!

Glad your keeping your language alive.

Its good that they teach this on the qualla boundary. I lost the language long ago. But am,glad its taught in the schools on,the res,,

Fantastic!!!

this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen my mother was full-blooded Cherokee but my father and sisters came from Scotland I grew up in Atlanta Georgia and I never learn to speak Cherokee only a few things only a few words and I have forgotten them but it is a beautiful language I believe it is a language come from God and I think it is off it brings tears to my eyes to see those children talking in Cherokee and class and it makes me wish I was one of them I would like to find out if I could learn to talk Cherokee at the age of 55 I would study it the rest of my life and try to teach it to my grandchildren I have 9 of them now and anyone that would wish to learn I would teach it to them

thank you so much.

Neuroplasticity will save our language yet. The younger, the better to learn. I'm grateful that I grew up with Cherokee and English side by side, but a lot of my generation from the early 80s didn't.

This is Great for the people and the language must be learned so it can be carried on forever young and old.

I'm Cherokee

I want to learn so to speck this language of my Great Grandmother :) I have a cell called Lg so is there a free app for the Cherokee Language?

Dualingo needs cherokee

Perhaps you could help me. I live in a town in Union County georgia. We have a street spelled Kiutuestia. The locals insist that it is not pronounced (que-tues-tia) as it is spelled. They also can't seem to agree on how it is phonetically I've heard everything from Kalgiske, Cowgiski and Cowguesky. The locals insist that there was once a Cherokee that taught them how to say the word and that the white man messed up the street sign. Are there any Cherokee words that remotely sound like any of these words?

This is awesome, so glad they're doing that before the language went extinct as has happened to other languages.

Im Aniyunwiya, and im ashamed not to know that language, of my own people. my grand parent left the south and moved north to New York. That were my grandmother had most of my family including my mother. My grand mother fear racial inequalities so she never taught her children our ways I personally want to learn my language and pass it on to my children. To the next generation of my family dosent feel a part of the is missing like i currently feel.

Rich culture!

Cool

Beautiful spiritual .

BoTaylor My Friend!!!

Is there a free app I can use to learn, I asked my grandfather and aunt if they could help me but they said they couldn't remember most of it because they were shamed for using it...and now their parents are gone and I have no one to teach me and I want to spread it from me to my sons and their sons after...but I cant find anything to teach it to me.....

Is there a pool for Cherokee speakers (Eastern and Western Bands) to contribute known old words to a lexicon / dictionary, and to collect newly-coined words like slang or jargon or coined words not originally in Cherokee? With many speakers non-fluent, you'd need both the chance to poll fluent speakers to find known vocabulary and grammar, and to try out newly-coined words to help document and form a consensus for additions to the language. Also, over time, this could document dialectal changes or how Cherokee changes (like all languages) over time. My idea here being, not a prescriptive, definitive thing that says this is how you must always say it; but instead a descriptive collection that finds how the majority say things, but would record how minority dialectal or singular speakers say things, to help language study. Likewise, there's a wealth of printed materials going back to the first handwritten and printed Cherokee documents, books, newspapers, etc., so these could be gone through to compile the lexicon also.

I would love to learn the language and wish there were classes here. i have less than 1% cherokee blood but wish i had more

I want to To learn how to speak Cherokee

It's incredible how the US Government annihilated the indigenious cultures. For instance, in Russia all of countless ethnic groups still speak their languages, at least 50% of them, while with 350.000 Cherokee people in the USA only about 15.000 can speak their language - it's less than 5% ! Moreover, in Russia those were Russians who invented the alphabets to the indigenious people who didn't even know what written language was and had never written anything in their own languages. In the USA it's absolutely those ethnic minorities' business to save something while the US Government, until recently, had been only destroying their cultures and languages.

You guys are forgetting about us and I dont appreciate that. You act like you forgot where you came from.

We as Cherokee have no reason to not learn the language. Call it a rebellious attitude for something taken.

Can you teach our kids too the ones that's talking about they black and they really not

westo’s/cherokee 🤦🏿‍♂️

Ohio language

Let it die, let it die! Let it shrivel up and die!

Sequoya sure sucked at artistic design. The language looks like random scribbles added to the Latin alphabet.

to can't believe people would punish them for speaking their language that is so heart breaking. I think the Cherokee language is beautiful I have tried to learn it myself.

were can I get or go to learn how to speak Cherokee I want to learn my native language PLEASE HELP.
