I am a potowatomi Indian. I had this app for quite a while now and if I wanted to i could have a conversation with another Indian of my tribe. This app helps me and my cousins and family a Lot. Pow wows are every twice a year and when your at a pow wow it is pretty nice for a person from the tribe to be able to speak the language. This app is awesome because they do teach you half or maybe even all of the language. My family and I are in amaze with this app. Like another person wrote that he and his kids even made little cards with the words from the language on them. And that's what I did exactly! I love this app, I hope I continue with it in the next year!!

Great App
My kids and I love this app. We sit around outside under a tree and practice. They've made themselves little picture cards to utilize on their own, as well. They love learning about our language and I love sharing it with them.
