I'm not sure how you guys feel about Disney, but if you subscribe to Disney+ in the US, you can watch Finding Nemo in Navajo. For some reason, it's under the "extras" and not listed as a separate title the way the Spanish dubs are. Also, there is now a Duolingo course in Navajo, though it's still very short for now.
Hi. I recently found myself in a conversation that prompted me to consider the experiences of a Navajo language learner. What has your experience been in trying to learn Navajo with current resources? Do you have suggestions on additional resources that may help someone learn? What is the impetus that motivates you to learn Navajo? What will you gain from learning to speak it? :)
YÑ'Ñt'ééh! As the title says, I am trying to learn and become fluent in the Navajo language. If anyone could give me some tips or pointers that would be great appreciated. Ahéhee' :)
I am starting to see "I am learning Navajo" everywhere. Navajo is a Native American language. It has 7600 native speakers and over 150,000 "fluent" speakers worldwide. I think its safe to discount the fluent Navajo speakers being fluent as fluent is traditionally understood. For this reason, Navajo is considered an endangered language.
These days I see Navajo "learners" popping up everywhere. Has Navajo made an appearance on Duolingo or something? Its so obviously b*llshit and they aren't learning Navajo just like they aren't learning any of their other languages.
