As stated in the video, it's an Algonquian language. Navajo is a Na-Dene language, which in turn could make it part of the Dene-Yeniseian language family, if the latter can in fact be confirmed.
Personally speaking, i think the Algonquian languages needed their own writing system because their words are TOO LONG for the latin script. The Canadian Native Amrican Syllabary won't work. It needs a new one.
The language that has an incredibly weird orthography which completely does not represent the pronunciation (hello, English); moreover, all the words sound almost the same
It's because of all the whispered vowels (those with a dot on top of them) which tend to be either whispered or not said aloud at all and also vowels preceding /h/ and the ultimate syllables, which tend to be devocalized.. When it comes to stops sounding the same, his dialect seems to differ a little from the ones I've heard - the glottal stop sounded more like a velar or alveolar one (for what I've heard Tsehesenestsestotse, the glottal stop usually just lengthens the vowel or is very weak) and that, added to the whispered/unvoiced vowel thing makes Tsehesenestsestotse sound totally off-the-wall with its orthography, which is"more of a pronunciation guide than a phonemic inventory", according to the linguist who came up with Tsehesenestsestotse orthography.
@@andypaulsibakoff9816 Well, makes sense, but I still do not understand why it must be so complicated. The purpose of every orthography should be, first of all, making reading possible and easy for all learners and speakers...
@@chorronmekhlug2666not especially, the first purpose of an orthography is to be able to write down a language, regardless of if it is immediately intuitive
Languages scribed with Latin letters aren’t always gonna use ‘em in a simple way. Our own English language isn’t written as it’s pronounced. Just like Irish and Scots Gaelic, words aren’t always written how they sound either, but the weird spelling is tied to the ancient forms of the words back when they were longer and fully pronounced. Adharcáilí (ayar-koh-li), Beochaoineadh ("byo-khwee-nyu”), etc. I am initially intimidated by the way Cheyennes words look as a simple outsider with no knowledge of how their writing system works, but like any other language it’s entirely possible to learn as long as you have good patience.
Tit for tat. Portuguese language is a language descended from VULGAR latin. Vulgar means lacking any sophistication or good taste; unrefined. Improper. And rather than sounding unique, the language sounds like Spanish with a nasally Slavic accent to most people. Not that there isn’t something to find beautiful in the language, but that I’m matching your level.
To make this claim in English of all languages is especially silly considering the grammatical vagaries that are common in other languages that English lacks
When I hear Native American Languages they sound like they are from other world's. They are great to listen to and very interesting.
RIP to all fallen indigenous warriors, may they once again have their land…
But they are still remaining Cheyenne people. We do not know if they are pure or mixed with other European races.
@@peterdavidsalamanca8404indigenous people do not look at other indigenous people as pure. Purity in genetics is a European concept.

🇨🇦✝️🇮🇪 It’s Indiginous history month in Canada now. June
Great video.
Wow! Both varieties are so far apart, but that's to be expected from a people who are known for being nomads and migrators.
wonder if we could reach more indigenous people to get an additional chance to share their own language.
Is this language related to Navajo or is it some kind of Alqoin language?

Glad to see an indigenous north american language

Cheyenne, the lost sibling of Finnish & Tahitian.

native americans are from late glacial middle siberia
tbh, it sounds like a conlang, and is very, let me say, unsophisticated.

what does it mean for a language to be unsophisticated? just wondering
what would make a language sophisticated and another unsophisticated? other than racism?

It was just such an attitude that led to European settlers wiping out almost the entire Native American population.
