@DeepPerspectiveBooks I really don't know. I'm currently switching to the minimal course approach as described in "Keeping It Simple: the Minimal Course…". See conormquinn.com/professional.h (scroll down to "downloads").

I'm also leery of anything patented or not sharable which is why everything I do is normally Creative Commons Share Alike or CC0 (Public Domain).

@beandreams Yes, the Anki app is based on the analog way of doing things. There are a lot of studies related to graduated interval recall learning. Another analog way is via timed audio challenge response exercises.

I find this horribly offensive.

I am asking Bing to create me ten sentences that are not the same as ten already provided sentences which only contain English words which match a Mohegan vocabulary list.

It refuses.

Safety rails have become the new censorship and discrimination tool of the elites.

So, just a couple of months after I signed up, mastodonbooks sent out a shutdown notice! Fun.

Appears I have to repost my posts? No way to import them I take it.

The Language

The main goal of the lesson materials is to help you improve your listening and speaking skills in the language. You don't have to be able to describe the language or its grammar rules in depth to be able to use the language. The most important thing is to learn the basic sounds of Mohegan.

Comprehensible input is a key concept for language learning, especially for polysynthetic languages such as Mohegan. Polysynthetic languages are languages that combine many morphemes (meaningful units) into single words, often expressing complex ideas or sentences. Learning polysynthetic languages can be challenging for speakers of other types of languages which have simpler word structures and more rigid word order...

Many people who want to learn a new language have a high standard of perfection for themselves. They think that they need to speak flawlessly, write correctly, and understand everything. However, this mindset can be counterproductive and discouraging for language learners.

“In the pursuit of language, let not perfection be the enemy of the good. For it is in the realm of `good enough' that we find progress, joy, and the true essence of communication.”

There is a misunderstanding about the Ojibwe word for Hello: “Boozhoo”.

Many people incorrectly think that “Boozhoo” is a corruption of the French word “Bonjour”.

This is not the case. It predates any contact.

It refers to the central character in all the oldest Ojibwe stories who is named Nanaboozhoo (or “Waynaboozhoo”).

“Giin inna Nanaboozhoo?” (Are you Nanaboozhoo?) was a greeting that became Boozhoo over time.

Also available as an audio book for commuters I just discovered!

@corbden I grew up near the intersection of #Mohegan #Nipmuc and #Podunk people. Currently live on #Schaghticoke lands. Very cool map.
