i don't really know how to structure sentences without guidance right now, so i had to use some online resources to put together these small sentences, but here's my attempt at a small diary entry and introduction to myself in tsalagi.
ᎣᏏᏲ. ᏥᏍᏚ ᏓᏆᏙᎠ. ᎣᎦᎵᎰᎻ ᏗᎨᎬ. ᎤᏍᏘ ᏥᏬᏂ ᏣᎳᎩ. ᎣᏍᏓ ᎡᏃᏱ.
osiyo. jisdu daquadoa. oglihomi digegv. usti jiwoni jalagi. osda enoyi.

went through my tsalagi syllabary flashcards to test myself. turns out after just a few days of studying and making those vocab lists, after 5+ years of not studying I can correctly identify exactly half of all syllabary characters! I think I had it up to 70-some memorized when I was actively studying and going to classes, so I've only got another 30 to go to be back to where I was before 🥲

languages that don't distinguish between formal and informal you are missing out on so much petty drama. my grandparents have two neighbours who once got into a huge fight over something honestly pretty trivial, so neighbour A said he was going to revoke neighbour B's du (informal you) privileges. neighbour B was like "okay but can i use du one last time?" and neighbour A was like "yeah go ahead", and neighbour B said "du arschloch" (you asshole). incredible.
but it can also create strangely wholesome situations! my mum regularly visits her 94-year-old ex-neighbour who moved into a retirement home a few years ago, and yesterday towards the end of my mum's visit the 94-year-old was like "can we go pick up a bottle of alcohol-free prosecco? i'd like to invite you to call me du." however, my mum had somewhere to be, so they've agreed that my mum will bring a bottle of prosecco with her on her next visit so the 94-year-old can officially ask her to address her informally. you can't rush these things, i guess.

Monday- ᏙᏙᏅᎢ- dodonvi
Tuesday- ᏔᎵᏁ ᎢᎦ- taline iga

In Cherokee the week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday. Here is some sentences utilizing these week days:

everyday Cherokee (Tsalagi)
To make this list readable on Tumblr I didn’t include pronounciation markers or tones, sorry for that, but it’s far easier to figure out “osiyo” than “o*3si.2yo.1”
Osiyo - Hello Tohitsu? - How are you? Osiquusgo? - Are you well? Osiquusgo nitsadvnadegei? - How have you been? Osi - fine Tohiquu - I’m well Osiquu - I’m so-so Tla osda yawadanvta - I’m not well Nihina? - and you? Wado -thank you donadagohvi - we’ll see each other again kohiyv donadagohvi - see you later
kohiiga - today Osda nusda doyadila kohiiga doka? - nice weather outside, right? agaliha - sunny agasga - it’s raining gadulida - wet ale - and, or, but uhyvdla - cold uwoduhi - lovely, pretty, beautiful iga- day
vv - yes hawa - okay tla - no, not
gadia - I say hadia - you say adia - he/she/it says andia - they say
gega - I go/am going hega - you go ega - he/she/it goes anega - they go Diquenvsvi gega - I am going home
awadulia - I want tsadulia - you want udulia - he/she wants unadulia - they want
aquanita - I know (fact) tsanta - you know unta - he/she knows unata - they know
akiwasga - I buy tsiwasga - you buy uhwasga - he/she buys unihwasga
hatlvhinela? - where do you live? Gado detsado? - What’s your name? ___ dawadoa - my name is ___ Tlayigoliga - I don’t understand Gado usdi? - What is it? Gado usdi tsadulia? - What do you want? Tlayaquanita - I don’t know hv - What did you say? gado -what?, which? gado usdi? - What kind of? hatlv - where? kaga - who? kiloi - somebody
this list was requested by @waughinjarth (sorry it took so long). please just write me if you got any questions or found a mistake. My resources are “beginning Cherokee”, “dikaneisdi” and the mango Cherokee course
Colors in Cherokee:
ᎩᎦᎨᎢ (gigage'i) - red
ᎠᏓᎶᏂᎨᎢ (adalonige'i) - orange
ᏓᎶᏂᎨᎢ (dalonige'i) - yellow
ᎢᏤᏳᏍᏗ (itseyusdi) - green
ᏌᎪᏂᎨᎢ (sakonige'i) - blue
ᎩᎦᎨᏍᏗ (gigagesdi) - purple
ᎩᎦᎨ ᏳᏍᏗ (gigage yusdi) - pink
ᎤᏁᎦ (unega) - white
ᎠᏕᎸ ᎤᏁᎦ (adelv unega) - grey
ᎬᎿᎨᎢ (gvhnage'i) - black
The Cherokee language uses a syllabary, similar to Japanese, but it has one more vowel sound. That would be the “v” (pronounced [ə] like the “a” in “about”).
Also, a helpful hint: Add ᎯᎠ (hia) before any of these colors to turn the noun form of the color into an adjective :)
just went through my entire following list and unfollowed everyone who hasn't been active in over three years, which amounted to over half (300+) of everyone I follow. so sad :( I remember when langblr was a thriving community. what happened? was everyone in college and they just graduated and moved on? most blogs hadn't been active in 7 years or more. I know I have contributed by leaving the community too but I still log in from time to time... anyways, like I said. sad.
forgot the name of the defunct email connected to this account but I finally found where I had written it down so hiiiii i'm alive lol
you can give seven days of internet connection to someone in gaza for just 6 USD
gazaesims.com is a website dedicated to helping people donate esims for people in gaza. there are multiple options for where to purchase an esim to donate, for the price i listed you want to use nomad esims. you can get a $3 discount by using someone's referral code from the notes of this post. it also will give the referrer credit to buy more esims! (you can only use a referral code on your first purchase) BACKPACKNOMAD is another code to get $3 off your first purchase, it's been working for some people but not others so try out a referral code instead if you can't get it to work. also it took over an hour for the email with my information to come through so don't panic if it doesn't show up right away. (logging back into your nomad account seems to have helped some people get their emails to send!) (nomad promo codes do not work on plans that are already on sale, unlimited plans, and plans under $5)
edit as of 1/1/24: they are running out of all esims types right now! please donate esims from any of the platforms: nomad, airalo, holafly, simly, and mogo. here is a purchase guide i made that covers all of them. the crew is asking for people to reply to emails they sent that contain esims that are still unactivated. you can see gothhabiba’s guide for how to tell if your esims have been activated.
1/12/24: once again super low on esims! all of the above links should still be accurate on what to do.
