Bangii’eta Anishinaabemodaa
Let’s speak a little Ojibwe
Why is it important to learn an informal greeting?
The objective is to learn Anishinaabe customs and etiquette on how to greet Elders, family, friends, community members and teachers.
The goal is to learn Anishinaabe through speaking with everyday conversations. Join Judy Doolittle as she mentors a group of second language speakers. They will share their successes and challenges with learning the language as they grow to be confident speakers. This podcast will allow people to follow along and learn by repetition and conversational skits.
Episode 4 – Terms of endearment
The objective is to not only learn the terms of endearment but to use them more amongst family and to normalize the use of them again. Residential school disrupted our family closeness including use of kinship terms and terms of endearment.
