Is there anything else like an app to learn Euskara language , just found out I have Basque DNA . Would love to learn this language, I've just subscribed to your channel , thank you for posting.
My great grandmother is from Las Aldudes as well and my great grandfather is from Urepel, my great grandfather moved here in the early 1900’s and my great grandmother in the 1910s. I have their Certificates of Citizenship framed in my office, they gained US citizenship in 1934. Unfortunately it doesn’t list the year they migrated here. I do have copies of the papers listing their names from Ellis island so I need to look for those to see exactly when they arrived here. I also have a bunch of letter my great grandfather received in the 1900s-1920s that are written in Euskara and I’m currently getting them translated thanks to a very nice group of Basques in Urepel I befriended online. One letter from 1915 was particularly sad, it was how a huge number of men (really they were boys) from Urepel were killed in WW1. Not long after moving to the US, my great grandmother’s cousin and three other stockmen were murdered by a group of outlaw Native Americans which lead to the last Native American Massacre, known as The Battle of Kelley Creek outside Winnemucca, Nevada. You can see his body on the Wikipedia article on the battle, i won’t say his last name because I don’t want to dox myself, but I think two of the other men were Basque as well. After the massacre, the sheriff of the area told the white citizens to shoot any “Indian” they see. Oh how times have changed, and for the most part for the better.
@@lucieweaver3324 Ardans is a family name on the basque side of my family tree, it was my great grandmother’s Maiden name and she’s from Aldudes as well! We’re all three very likely related, and probably not too distantly as well! Crazy!
Such a rude and unnecessary comment. I guarantee if you are on the internet you have seen this in humans, you just personally don’t like it, and you think your opinion is so valued that being rude by making a comparison to a cow or pig will make people care about it.-- (it’s not)
Egun on Ana Marie, ongi zaude ? Izigarri pozten naiz zu berrikusi interneten. Pasatu ditugun egunak zurekin atseginak ziren. Bi muxu bidali dizkizu eta behar bada laster arte
Almost forgot, I love the Basques, lived with them on the Spanish side for 5 years.
Those 652 Euros for ten days, did they include food and lodging, too?
Or were they for the tuition, only?
You go girl - wish I was in my twenties again!! I so remember to Urepel as next to Aldudes (my dad's kin). Thanks for sharing!!
Very interesting! Did you consider doing a basque class at the universities of the Basque Country?

@@ETAFan wow. My grandmother was Marie Harriet, my grandfather was Leon Ardans.
Leon and Marie married in Elko, Nevada. He was a rancher. They had three kids, Rene, Peter (my dad), and Rose.
What I would like to know is why you have a ring in your nose. I have seen this in cows and pigs, but not in a human. Interesting.
