    My husband’s grandmother fought hard along side the elders for the language to be taught and kept alive! 💖 This is wonderful! I really want to teach my daughters their heritage 💖

    AS for my personal views, its more than a a blessing,
    One that dates back to 1888
    My father's grandmother,
    Loved her so much, unsure there reasons no to pass on this knowledge, Creek and Seminole. I find so many
    Family's who language not pass on . As I listen, my thoughts so Grateful ,
    Someone listened to there hearts to do this
    So many deep thought
    Share yet a need to pass on to people even years to come
    That feeling a need ,
    Thanks you for, for giving thought and savings this knowledge

    My dad & uncle's know some words, my grandpa Joe Smith could speak it fluently but unfortunately when he passed away so did the language.. I'm trying to learn my native language so I can pass it to my son's, they as myself owe it to ourselves & our heritage!!

    Hi. I also want to thank you. I just found this today. I am not Native, but I have 2 very good friends who are Creek. I am learning because not only do I legitimately love learning, but I want to surprise them! I have already saved this and plan on playing it back until I master it as best I can!

    Mvto, it sure helping me remember and refreshing our language to me again. I learned the old language, as my grandpa Newman told me the Old Semvnolē language the long words.
    And I sure miss hearing him speak to all his brothers and sister in our language. Growing up listening to them speak it every time they got together I could figure out what they said and I always loved when they change there expression and have the loong ending to the word. Lol
    I understand the old language I do have hard time understanding the shorter words idk why. I guess use to hearing old language lol

    Languages have their own alphabets. Greek alphabet letters are different from English alphabet letters, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Arabic, all have their own letters. What do Mvskoke letters look like? Are they similar to Aztec?

    • @snakejumper3277
      @snakejumper3277 Před 2 lety +2

      Creek writing is based on the Latin alphabet which was derived from the Phoenician alphabet. Carthage was founded by the Phoenicians but conquered by Rome. Some of the sound values were changed due to phonetics being different from English. Mvskoke is a beautiful language & is not related to the Carthaginian language as you stated in another post. Btw, it may help you appear more scholarly if you learned to spell "Carthaginian".
