Chief Moon Wolf... You are AWESOME! A'HO! I've been trying to teach myself Cherokee, but I'm unsure of myself. You've brought soooooo much joy to my simple life. Thank you! I'm a quarter Cherokee. My mother was half, her biological father was full Medicine Cherokee. She's past... She was my teacher. I want to teach our ways to my grandchild. My Great grandmother is buried in Viola Arkansas. I love the way you teach for us simple people. Lol... Thank you!
My grandmother was Cherokee, from Georgia. I have always tried to honor her and all Native Americans in word and deed. Now to learn the language is the greatest gift of all. I can't thank you enough for your teachings. I ask you to please continue these lessons!
very grateful for these lessons at a time in my life when i'm willing to learn, i'm still young & have had success learning languages but it can get harder the older you get. but it will never be too late to rewelcome the language of the widest spread tribe in the land
Just me again... I'm soooooo following you. You're very patient. Thank you. I love how you repeat. I've learned more from you than my beautiful Cherokee Language book I bought.😔
Siyuu Chief Moon Wolf, Thank you so much for showing us the Cherokee language,the true language. I am half Cherokee, Dad from Oklahoma. Not sure which tribe I was to young to get to know my father lost at very young age. But very proud of my Native heritage. And wanted to learn the way's of my culture. I have been told some family of mine where on the trail of tears unfortunately. Thank You so much. Adassligi
metalman6851, I have a similar problem. I have been told I am Cherokee on both sides of my parents. my father was born in Minko Oklahoma. his parents divorced and paper trail is almost non existent. it's as if the gov did everything they can to keep us from proving who has any Indian blood line. On my mother's side I was told she is black foot. while doing genealogy I found great grandmother's name on the list surprisingly. I am so grateful to Chief Moon Wolf for teaching our language so I can learn our heritage. Hopefully we can teach our children and grandchildren so our heritage is not lost. God blessAnn
Siyuu Chief Moon Wolf Thank you so very much for taking your time to teach the Cherokee language. I have longed to learn the language. Through research I found that my ancestors belonged to the Eastern Band. I was taking lessons of the Western Band which was awesome, but I wanted to stay true to my ancestors and I found your site. Sgi doesn't express my gratitude for what you are doing to keep the Eastern Band Cherokee alive. I look forward to your videos . Again Sgi Chief Moon Wolf. Sincerely William
You are so great and thank you very much for sharing my native language to me. I never learned from my fathers side of the family and feel blessed to learn it here and now. Utsati Adassligi
I am a Rromani Sami mixture from Norway,both languages have been forbidden by our so called government until relatively recently.It is wonderfull for me to see you sharing your language and that gives me hope in a world of forced assimilation and also i love your story of speaking Cherokee with your dogs,i do something similar with other creatures in nature here where i live as i have no Dog,thankyou.
Thank you Chief Moon Wolf for your very interesting and well executed lessons. Your pronunciation is extremely clear and easy to catch on to. My family is from Murphy, Cherokee County, North Carolina. I was born in Los Angeles California and grew up there and Oregon from the fifth grade on. we found many obsidian indian arrowheads on our property. I wasn't thinking of learning to speek Cherokee but after seeing how easy you make it to sound and how I found I was able to replicate the intricate vocal inflections of the language I felt interested in pursuing it. your a good teacher. Very important work. Thank you.😊
Thank you, for teaching me the native tongue of my grandfathers. I'm still fighting to become registered but I will never give up because it is my birth rite.
Hi chief moon wolf. I am looking to learn Tsalagi sentence construction. Like for instance, how would you put the words "I love you" and "mother" together?
Thank you so much for the way you are trying to teach us. You are doing realy good. My mom is Cherokee. She knows some. I been wanting to learn the language. The music is a little loud but very peaceful. A lot of vids i found go too fast. keep up the good work. God be with you always.

Siyuu, thank you for these lessons. I am officiating a wedding soon and have been asked to learn the Cherokee language for part of the ceremony. These lessons are easy and fun.

Wado (Thank you) Mr. Thunderbolt!

if you can put the words in the description it may help people to right them down so th can practice later when they are away from the video thanks again i love this
Thanks for instructions as the only way that I can hear the language in Ohio is from teaching language CD' s that our library can get from a distant library and, out if the set of them they have never sent them all. i also have Cherokee dictionaries from the Cherokee Museum fron NC which I can understand but you need to hear spoken words. i am of Cherokee and Shawnee ancestry.
Ty, Chief moon wolf, Tsatsagali, trying to figure out I know my roots but we didn't speak 🗣️ it? It-li dog is it not? Teaching my daughter, while I need to learn starting out with the dog. Want to make sure it's right found out person still tend to not like the language or something. Or ug-na?... Ugnali.
Ugawiyuhi Moon Wolf. You're teachings are very helpful. on another note...in Chicago, there is a business developer trying to put Artists lofts inside our Pullman District, our new national monument. Similar to Big business destroying water etc. This is an in to other places. This is a heads up. WBEZ Chicago reported it. WE WANT THAT STOPPED> PLEASE WRITE BRUCE RAUNER GOV< BOBBY RUSH AND DANNY DAVIS REPRESENTATIVE> ANY OTHERS ARE OF> RAHM EMANUEL IS THE MAYOR> Hadi to the artist studios!

Can you please say them a little slower,I'm write them down and speaking them at the same time, My great grand-mother died before I was born, And grandmother was made to speak English.She once spoke cherokee, But no one else could understand what she was saying.
Osda Svnoi . I want to add something to my lesson two. I also get help by seeing at the stars (sky) they tell me things (answers) like massages (affirmaties). from the head Chief. Every night I have a moment of silence...that is important!!!
Howdy chief I am Half-Blood Cherokee I took a lot of time to try to learn my heritage language and some reason I'm still having troubles I try so hard I want to learn so bad I get frustrated
after reading the comments I just have to say neither or any dialect is the TRUE or ORIGINAL, rather, after the Trail the language had to develop seperatly. because that is what happens to living languages they evolve and change with new ideas and generations. (side note: does anyone still speak the dialect that uses th instead of d?)
My research like I said I am Half-Blood Cherokee I research goes back to where mini Maha is my great great great grandmother she married into the bunnell which it was spelled back then bunell she married my great-great-great-grandfather that was from Germany the way I take it she was from Virginia
The music is very distracting and it makes it hard to hear you I love your lessons but it's hard to hear the pronunciations of the words with that music
siyuu chief moon wolf : i wish to learn or else be taught the language of that being my people better then that to which I know . i to being native i wasn't taught the language very much . would there be anyway you would grand me a friend's request here on facebook ?
Siyuu, Chief Moon Wolf. Thank you so much for sharing your native language! I'm not Cherokee at all, but I'm very curious about the language and I am excited to learn more. Sgi.

Until there are others to talk with...it is difficult to learn & retain the language of our people.

(side note: does anyone still speak the dialect that uses th instead of d?)
