He is now in a hospital and gradually recovering, which is a reason for us to be thankful. Please send your ...

Háu Mitákuyepi,

The NLD-I is in my opinion very helpful, especially in a case like mine. i.e. Thinking Lakota vs now thinking 50% European.

Háu, tȟaŋháŋši Daniel, Thank you, yes, I realize that about the verb forms, but your post was helpful to remind me that it was "uŋya..pi" that I was looking for. Later, I looked in the grammar section of the NLD to see how long it would take to find it there. ...

I found it very helpful...switch screens and "click-click" and it's there. Since this writing system is new to me it helps me to find the LLC spelling quickly, whereas the big NLD book takes forever...ESPECIALLY since, even ...

Háu Mitákuyepi,

For example, the word tȟatȟáŋka. I have always used the word spelled like this --> tatanka.

... appropriate entry in the on-line dictionary and the entry is shown in a window floating above the page next to the selected word. One of the most helpful features of the NLD-I is its ability to recognize conjugated words and link them to their basic form (this is called lemmatizer). You can see ...

... I did not find "maníŋtu" in the hard copy of the NLD either. Having the variant words in the O-NLD available would be extremely helpful to the student of the Lakota language. :) Again, a very big "Thank You" to Kostya and all the other people who have made the O-NLD ...

... and I will get the meaning. And not even the meaning as such I will get, even example sentences are shown. This is something very special and very helpful as well. The orthography is such that it helps to find the correct pronunciation, but still it is not the same as to listen to the spoken word. ...

... greater! I am learning best by listening and I know many others do, too. This would make my learning progresses faster.

A good study group can be very helpful in increasing the participants’ proficiency, provided it uses some of the effective strategies. It is wise to base the study group on a sequenced ...

It is just great. The linked words are a very helpful feature, especailly as the English side of the page does not disappear while the Lakota half shows the search results. So I am able to compare various solutions. And still it is helpful to have ...

... available. The interaction is phenominal. I love the fact that I can make a post and almost immediately have input about it. The quizzes are very helpful and fun.
