I would rather that you learn the simple commands and phrases that facilitate conversation. But the words that most people are requesting are nouns and with that in mind, I want you to try to integrate these words with the words and phrases that you have learned in previous lessons. Here are a list of words that have been most requested. The first word will be the formal and the following entries will be conversational forms. wolf wa-ya wa-y bear yo-nv yo-n eagle a-wo-ha-li a-wo-ha-l buffalo ya-nv-sa ya-n-sa ya-n-s horse so-gwi-li so-gwi-l hawk ta-wo-di ta-wo-d turtle (box turtle or tourtoise) da-ka-si da-k-si da-k-s turtle (water turtle) sa-li-gu-gi sa-li-gu-g fish a-tsa-ti a-tsa-t bird tsi-s-gwa tsi-s-gw beaver do-yi or do-ya ground hog o-ga-nv o-ga-n snake i-na-dv i-na-d cat we-sa we-s dog gi-hli gi-hl fox tsu-la tsu-l man a-s-ga-ya a-s-ga-y woman a-ge-ya a-gey boy a-tsu-tsa a-tsu-ts tsu-ts girl a-ge-yu-tsa a-ge-yu-ts Creator U-ne-hla-nv-hi U-ne-hla-nv Jesus Tsi-sa or Ga-lo-ne-dv Tsi-s or Ga-lo-ne-d Note: Ga-lo-ne-dv means he has been anointed.
