Waa sa duwasaakw yaat'aa Lingit x'einax?
This is a definitive first course in Tlingit, a native Alaskan language related to Navaho and Apache. Since it is intended for Tlingit school children, it avoids much of the form analysis that a linguist would want to see, but one thing at a time. If you want to see more of the highly complex verb system, try the advanced course.
