This newer book provides students of Dakota—and the Lakota and Nakota dialects-the proper conjugations for 550 verbs from adi (to step or walk on) to żo (to whistle). Here find clear explanations of Dakota conjugations patterrrrns, as well as extensive word lists.
Designed to enhance everyday conversations, as well as contribute to research and the revitalization of this endangered language this resource is for all interested in Dakota and its dialects. compiled by Harlan LaFontaine & Neil McKay - 552 pp., 7x10, appendix, 2004 paperback.
