THE BEAR  |  2.03

I think when I was a kid, anything that would give me any sort of excitement or amusement or enjoyment, it always got kinda f*cked. You know, I don’t think my family meant to ruin it or anything like that, you know. I don’t think they did it on purpose. But I think… Sometimes they just, they try too hard. You know, or they’d make promises that they weren’t able to keep.

There are a more than a few videos out there of folks speaking Piikáni, one of the two Blackfoot dialects! It's brief, but Lily Gladstone (Siksikaitsitapi, NiMíiPuu) spoke some in her Golden Globes acceptance speech.

There's also a Blackfeet language app, and even a whole YouTube channel that's made to be educational for modern speakers, with short clips of words, phrases, and some stories, like the creation story (he's speaking slow since it's a learning tool, but also pronouncing everything really clearly):

Bonus: the word for dove/pigeon even, imo, sounds a lot like the noises the birds make themselves! https://youtu.be/umn7wWDviXs?si=YjyophoKfMqdEUlH

I'm gonna reblog with some videos of people speaking various American Indian/indigenous American languages, because I think most people don't even know what they sound like. Not to be judgement of that—just, you know, I think people who want to be informed should know what they sound like!
