Introduction
IntroductionLearning syllabary is the foundation of speaking, reading, and writing the Cherokee language fluently. The Cherokee syllabary is comprised of eighty-four characters, each character representing a vowel or a syllable.
This study associates each syllabary character with a simple story that contains a key word that triggers a unique sound, the syllabary's sound. Upon completing these lessons, when you see a syllabary character you will instantly recall its story and then impulsively say the appropriate sound. In the next book, "Simply Numbers" you will learn to put several sounds together, resulting in reading written Cherokee words. After that, Simply Cherokee lessons will cover complete sentences and everyday phrases.
Son of a Cherokee mother and an Apache father, I was raised by my mother's clan and spoke fluent Cherokee growing up. But it was not my family or my heritage that was the spark for this book. It was Japanese.
As a post-graduate, I relocated to Houston, where I served other veterans as a Veteran Service Representative at the Department of Veteran Affairs for seven years. While there a work opportunity presented itself to go to Japan; I jumped on it.
Prior to the trip I wanted to explore reading and writing Japanese and discovered the book: Learn to Read and Write Japanese in a Weekend by Author Unknown. Skeptical, I bought it and began reading the book on a Friday evening. By Monday morning I was reading Japanese and could write katagana and hiragana with confidence. Of course it wasn't magic; it was word association. I learned how to associate each Japanese character to something I already knew.
As a Cherokee speaker, I noticed many similarities between Cherokee and Japanese. Upon my return from Japan, I searched for a similar book that could teach Cherokee syllabary in a weekend. There was none. Like many Cherokees, I could speak the language but could not read nor write. This deficit in the Cherokee will mean the extinction of our word. Writing and reading is just as important as speaking. New Cherokee language speakers need an easy and fast way of learning syllabary if the language is to survive the next decade. This Study of the Cherokee Syllabary is just that: easy, fast, and effective.
Cherokee Sounds
Cherokee has 6 vowel sounds:
"a" as in awful; "e" as in egg; "i" as in indian; "o" as in oval; "u" as in food "v" as in under
Several syllabary sounds do not exist or are challenging for English speakers to say. Don't worry, I'll keep it simple and let you know when they come up. There will be a note identifying when a sound is slightly altered.
Let's begin by tracing each of the 84 Cherokee syllabary characters.
