We are pleased to share our November 2019 Native words of the month in Holikachuk. This month, we feature a short conversation between Tristan Madros and Mary Deacon.
Tristan: Sits’ida’onh dant’anh? (What are you doing my friend?)
Mary: Gooqa yix ts’i ghisoł. (I’m walking to the store.)
Tristan: Koon ninagi’eł. (See you later.)
For more translations, view our Native word of the month archives on the Foundation website.
