Disclaimer
This guide was written by learners of the language. There may be things that are not correct or omitted by accident. Sometimes, the exact word in a sentence doesn't have its own entry in the dictionary and a similar word will be linked below instead (or omitted if there isn't a similar entry).
If you spot any issues, or where we have used another dialect of Dakelh, please let Jessica Brown (jebrown@sd57.bc.ca) know so she can correct it.
Mussi Cho!
