Being from the eastern band they speak so differently than us it’s difficult for me to understand much besides a few words here and there because they have such a different accent and way of pronouncing their words is very different but they use a lot of words that’s we don’t use and we use words they don’t use
As for dialects Ed Fields said "If it sounds kinda like a word you know there is a good chance it is that word." Being in California I tend to mix the dialect sounds together. Thank God all the words are spelled the same.
I enjoy this sometimes I recognize certain word's
Listening to these conversations is helping I don't understand it All but can recognize and pick out sertain words
Imagine talking to the one and only Durbin Feeling 🤯
Love watching this every day I do something Cherokee
Great to see this still alive!
Good to hear this! Good to see the language is being kept alive
I use wade Blevins classes there very helpful

Patrick has learned the language pretty well! I remember when he and I were starting out in Ed Fields' language class way back when.
Ed is a good teacher.
I wanna learn it and use it as a secret language.
