Pretty good

As a non fluent speaker, whenever I need a word definition, this is my go-to resource, can’t just google stoney words and texting someone what a word means is inconvenient.

I noticed everyone in ANSN has different ways of pronunciating and spelling words.
When other people disagree with a meaning or a word spelling, the info is atleast here, as a base, rather than lost.

I guess language preservation is still in its infancy, but this dictionary/tool is great as a start.

Ishnish to H&L for the efforts.

Ish nish, elders

Ish nish to the elders back home on the Alexis reservation, I can learn my language when i’m off reservation traveling. So grateful for this app 🙏🏽

Mother

Thank you love your laughter & language blessings to your elders & the children are our future ⭕️
