Language Progress and Maintenance Week 9

French: I got a new client on my caseload who speaks exclusively French. I'm not gonna lie, the parent education piece was rough at some moments. Playing with the child was mostly fine, though, except when I mixed up what a cow sounds like and used the English sound. I've mentioned this before, but I have a hard time expressing myself in English when it comes to this so in French so it just added a layer of uncertainty. I guess it'll be a treacherous and long learning curve. I kind of feel like a fraud though. Do I really speak French or am I just a faker... I also pretended I couldn't speak English and spoke French to some Mormons yesterday at the park who came up to me so they would leave me alone. I just wanted to enjoy my book in peace!! They still tried to push a little but at least it wasn't preaching, just asking about what I spoke. I think they were especially confused because I was speaking French but was holding my Persian book in my hand and probably couldn't quite figure out what I was speaking. Spanish:I only spoke a little bit of Spanish with one of my clients this week to explain something that I probably should have just explained in English. Same with French, sometimes I wonder if I am actually deserving of saying I can speak Spanish. Portuguese: Just duolingo and my Netflix show this week. I actually stuck to my schedule and did the full 30 minutes twice this week. Korean: Duolingo and I watched The Inheritors. Americans are portrayed really horribly in the show. But I guess it's only fair, Americans fill their shows/movies with caricatures and stereotypes as well. I'm honestly surprised at how much more I can understand without help of subtitles. It's really not that much but I have this sense that it's more than it's ever been. Which is a pleasant surprise considering how passively I've been "learning". Persian: I mentioned this in my other post, but I've felt a slow down and decrease in concentration. I'm using Persian more often but I'm not learning anything new or pushing myself to use more than the current amount.
Dene Athabaskan languages are spoken over a vast territory and one podcaster is connecting with speakers from Saskatchewan to Arizona.
Dene Athabaskan languages spread vast across much of North America, and one man has set out to teach it online through a video podcast.
Willis Janvier is from La Loche, Sask. and currently lives in Moose Jaw where he's studying Indigenous social work at First Nations University of Canada.
When he used to work in Fort McMurray, Alta., and his daughter lived more than 10 hours away from him, he would search for Denesųłıné videos he could listen to on Youtube, but there weren't many, he said.
He quit his job, went to university and started up "Willy FM," at first, recording his conversations with friends and family. When they learned about his idea to create more Denesųłıné content, he was met with encouragement.
Then, people back home in La Loche, where students learn from majority Dene-speaking teachers, started encouraging him to keep making videos in Denesųłıné in late November.
"That was the thing that drove me to keep going," he told Trail's End host Lawrence Nayally.
"Now, you can go on Youtube and hear the language any time, instead of the scarce little videos that were hard to find."
Willis also told CBC's Marlene Grooms, host of Denesųłıné Yatie, a weekday Chipewyan language radio program, that he's looking to connect with more speakers of Dene Athabaskan languages.
The videos give opportunities for people to interact whether they're in northern Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia or as far as Navajo country, where people speak Diné, he said.
Janvier grew up in his language, but many of the stories he has heard are new and each conversation is a learning opportunity about the interconnectedness of the languages and the people who speak them.
Janvier said he is always looking for anyone who will join the show, even if their dialects are different.
"I don't see myself quitting any time soon, where it's going to go, I don't know. I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing, share the languages,."
You can find the Dene Yati Podcast on YouTube and Facebook.
