Cool. I have been studying some Arapaho, they also have online lessons and dictionairies, as do lakota, ojibwe and others. I have done a little learning about the cherokee(not much tho), and the similarities in expression and understanding of different things has been an intriguing experience for me. The differences are equally as interesting. It has helped me to understand my own self, family, culture, and things relating to other tribal relationships much better.

I hope that in time, that type of learning can help those of eastern souian descent piece back together and better understand many of their lost things.

Are either of you guys taking the course?

Am doing the taped version. What they're trying to do is pretty cool. Should be a good class, once they iron out a few things. But, boy does it use up an old computer's resources. Need to jump start old Bessie after each session. ;~)
