@chad That’s beautiful. I love how the languages evolve with new experiences. “Fake policeman” for referee:). In hul’q’umi’num the word for cow is “moos moos”. Cheers to the CBC for being part of #Indigenous #language #revitalization and maintenance.
For me, an #Indigenous woman forcibly removed from culture & land when I was young, there is no feeling, no medicine in the world like returning Home.
It is the greatest, most fundamental source of #healing & the purest wellspring of love.

An #Indigenous #language #revitalization movement is taking shape.
In 2022, Indigenous representatives across the globe convened on the Cherokee Nation reservation to kick off the United Nations’ International Decade of Indigenous Languages initiative.
But it’s not just this worldwide push that is fueling some to connect to the language of their ancestors.
To attune themselves to parts that feel undiscovered or untouched, U.S.-born Latines are reclaiming the languages that colonization stole from them.
There are currently 7,164 Indigenous languages around the world.
Around 40% qualify as #endangered because there are not enough speakers to pass them down.
There are 560 Indigenous languages across Latin America and the Caribbean, according to a 2019 World Bank report.
One in 5 people in the region have lost their native tongue in recent decades, and 26% of Indigenous Latin American and Caribbean languages are at risk of disappearing altogether.
In comparison, at the time of the Spanish invasion, there were a reported 2,000 native languages spoken.
