Vocabulary Words in Native American Languages: Matis

Our vocabulary sets section is under construction. Though we hope to add a set of 100 common words for each language eventually, complete with phonetic lettering and possibly even audio, that will have to wait until we get a grant of some kind. For now, we have included ten words for each language. If you need to know a Matis word that is not currently on our page, you can take part in our Native American words fundraiser or visit our main Matis language site for more free resources.

Thanks for your interest in Native American languages!
