I've been trying to research to learn my native tongue, haven't spoken since I was 8 years old. I was forced to speak English in the school system when I lived in Chicago. My ancestors are deceased, so it's hard for me to learn from them. Is there anyone who might know someone willing to teach? 👍🏾

Can this term be used in the form of a verb and a noun??

[@witchdoctor1394]

Cherokee doesn't work that way.
