Cherokee Nation Dictionary

Speak Cherokee every day

Free · Designed for iPad

The Cherokee Nation Language Department has developed a groundbreaking searchable dictionary app. This is the first Indigenous dictionary app to integrate advanced technologies for an immersive language learning experience.    Going well beyond the simple translated word list, the App uses advanced technologies to provide assured translations across the Cherokee Syllabary, Practical phonetics, or English, along with the latest language learning tools. Includes extensive pronunciation support, audio, illustrative sentences, grammar notes, cross-referenced search, links to sources, and bios on speakers. Fully immersive in the language you select, you can choose to access the App in either the Cherokee or English language. The first release of the App digitises the foundational Durbin Feeling Cherokee-English Dictionary on its 50th Anniversary, a fitting tribute to Durbin Feeling’s decades of commitment to the Cherokee language.  FEATURES  Bilingual immersive experience in the Cherokee and English languages. Comprehensive information accessed through advanced search functionality. Pronunciation support, including an Interactive Syllabary Chart to learn the sounds of the Cherokee language. Learner support that includes share functionality. Built by Cherokee for Cherokee futures, this app was produced in collaboration with Indigenous developers Kiwa Digital.
