Beginning the Mvskoke Language- Nelson Harjo Sr. 

My grandmother, Lucy Condren, only spoke Muskogee until she was 5 yrs old.

Mvto. I am Poarch Creek, Northern Band of Florida. I live in Bellevue, Nebraska, south of the Omaha tribe. Thank you, glad to be welcomed to the fire. I’ll try, I’ve been wanting to learn as best as I can. 🤲🏽

My husband’s grandmother fought hard along side the elders for the language to be taught and kept alive! 💖 This is wonderful! I really want to teach my daughters their heritage 💖

So good, thank you!! I go to Haskell Indian Nations University and I’m about to start creating videos about Afro-Indigenous life and universal consciousness. I appreciate this video & just ordered a mvskoke dictionary ❤❤

I hope to see more videos of your teachings 🙏 I know a little bit of Yuchi language from my dad , he is full blood Creek. His mom spoke fluently until she passed.I would love to see more of your videos of your teachings. I hope to learn so that I may pass it on to my children and there children as well ❤ * Mvto Koeetah*

Hi. I also want to thank you. I just found this today. I am not Native, but I have 2 very good friends who are Creek. I am learning because not only do I legitimately love learning, but I want to surprise them! I have already saved this and plan on playing it back until I master it as best I can!

My dad & uncle's know some words, my grandpa Joe Smith could speak it fluently but unfortunately when he passed away so did the language.. I'm trying to learn my native language so I can pass it to my son's, they as myself owe it to ourselves & our heritage!!

Mvto, it sure helping me remember and refreshing our language to me again. I learned the old language, as my grandpa Newman told me the Old Semvnolē language the long words. And I sure miss hearing him speak to all his brothers and sister in our language. Growing up listening to them speak it every time they got together I could figure out what they said and I always loved when they change there expression and have the loong ending to the word. Lol I understand the old language I do have hard time understanding the shorter words idk why. I guess use to hearing old language lol

AS for my personal views, its more than a a blessing, One that dates back to 1888 My father's grandmother, Loved her so much, unsure there reasons no to pass on this knowledge, Creek and Seminole. I find so many Family's who language not pass on . As I listen, my thoughts so Grateful , Someone listened to there hearts to do this So many deep thought Share yet a need to pass on to people even years to come That feeling a need , Thanks you for, for giving thought and savings this knowledge

My father used to speak mvskoke to me when i was young im one of a handful of creek in iowa thank you so much

Thank you for this my great-grandfather chief Dody McIntosh told me if you lose your language you lose your culture

Extremely helpful! Thank you!

My husbands mother is a Burch. He was born in Mobile. I wish we lived close enough to take classes like this so our son could learn it.

I Know a lot of Harjos in Okemah

are there any like terms of endearment or ways to say you love someone??

Languages have their own alphabets. Greek alphabet letters are different from English alphabet letters, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Arabic, all have their own letters. What do Mvskoke letters look like? Are they similar to Aztec?

I was on the roles of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation until they change the requirement of the blood inheritance. Our family did own plot 20 and 21.

What're the words for 'shrew' and 'mole'? I've had a tough time searching for a reliable Creek-English dictionary.

Just FYI mvskoke r should be the voiceless lateral fricative, a sound which does not exist in English. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiceless_dental_and_alveolar_lateral_fricatives

You do know the Mvskogee language is rooted in the Carthaginian language; this is known by the Government.
