Solomon Ratt’s intermediate level Cree language textbook has finally arrived, and it looks amazing!
Here’s the description from the publisher, University of Regina Press:
An important language resource that helps intermediate nêhiyawêwin learners begin to understand more advanced grammar of the language.
Building on mâci-nêhiyawêwin / Beginning Cree, Solomon Ratt’s first influential Cree language resource, âhkami-nêhiyawêtân / Let’s Keep Speaking Cree helps intermediate nêhiyawêwin learners begin to understand more advanced grammar of the language. The textbook is more than a language textbook though: it includes a series of the author’s original stories written in Cree, complete with comprehension questions, making it ideal for self-study as well as classroom use.

You can also place orders with your nearest bookstore. (I’m hearing from publisher friends that Amazon erroneously reports some books as unavailable – so be sure to try alternate sources if Amazon isn’t coming through for you!)

Hi,
Are there any accompanying on-line Cree language/conversation lessons in Solomon Ratt’s book ?
Thank you for your answer.

So far, there are only recordings (via Cree Literacy Network), of story texts in the book.
