SynopsisThis small booklet contains simple and common phrases in Lakota. These terms are used daily and are basic in the interactive involvement in speech. You will also find a Pipe Filling Song, a Four Direction Song, a Grandfather Song, and a Thanksgiving song. Songs that are very relevant and purpose of the Inipi (Purification Rite), also a sample of a prayer. This is the Lakota that I grew up speaking.Lakota medicine man Pete Catches Sr. states in the book, Sacred Fireplace, "If you are going to participate in Lakota ceremonies, you should learn the language."With the help of this booklet and CD, you have journeyed into a beautiful realm that is unique in the Western Hemisphere. My prayers are with you.Zinktkala Oyate
