This is great because outside of Youtube, I had a hard time finding any pronunciation of the sounds of Navajo. Thank you!

Thanks.
I've had a hard time finding pronunciations for Navajo.
I'm guessing most of the less popular languages have less features than the more popular languages like Spanish, German, & English.

Thank you I Really want to learn Navajo. I want to bring the language back to my family. My great grandparents spoke it
Grandmother then was somehow her and her mother seperated from tribe. Nobody talks about it too painful I am sure
Never met any of my family from there my grandmother is past. I have no answers. So I want a new beginning for my family and have my 6 yr old grandaughter see that she has a long line of family out there. I hope we can learn from and be proud to be part of.

Nice resource. Seeing all the factors in the writing and pronunciation make the language appear even more difficult but it's nice to see the explanations of the marks and the factors like rising and lowering tone and "breathing through" certain sounds. Wow! There's a lot to learn!
