Progress: #23. study Mi'kmaq language


Thanks to my friend Megan, I have discovered "Learning from the Knowledge Keepers of Mi'kma'ki", an innovative free live - and online streamed / archived - lecture series from Cape Breton University.

Today, I watched all five archived short complementary language videos

They proceed as follows:

Lesson 1: greeting
Lesson 2: weather
Lesson 3: food
Lesson 4: learning
Lesson 5: listening

The video posted above is Lesson 4.


Two other resources I want to spend some time investigating are:

1. Mi'kmaq Online Talking Dictionary
2. Aboriginal Language Initiative
