We thought you might enjoy a sneak peak into one of our language helper sessions that we go to as part of our Cherokee Practicum. We spend 2 hours a day with our language helper learning more about the Cherokee language.
One of the important facets of analyzing a language is the ability to determine how verbs or action words are constructed. In some languages the word for “we” that excludes the person listening to the conversation is different from the word for “we” that includes the listener. Using Lego People can be a big help in setting up these scenarios so that Jenny and I as well as Ord (our language helper) understand what we are looking for.
Please pray that we will be able to make the most of our language helper sessions and that the Lord would keep the lines of communication open.
