The Cree language grows stronger every time it is heard, spoken, taught, and shared.
How Do You Say This in Cree began as a classroom project to support students learning Plains Cree. Today it continues to grow through the encouragement and support of teachers, fluent speakers, families, and communities.
If you would like to help this project continue to grow, here are a few ways you can become involved.
One of the greatest ways to support this project is simply to use it.
Encourage students to practise Cree every day.
Share the app with fellow educators.
Introduce it to your school or community.
Every new learner helps strengthen nêhiyawêwin.
Schools, First Nations, Métis organizations, friendship centres, and businesses are invited to partner with this project.
Community partners help ensure that this educational resource continues to grow while remaining focused on supporting students and language learning.
In the future, Cree language educators will be invited to help review and expand the shared phrase library, ensuring that the project continues to grow through community collaboration.
Fluent Cree speakers play an important role in helping this project grow.
By contributing new words, phrases, and recordings, contributors help preserve authentic language for future generations.
This app is offered with the goal of keeping Cree language learning accessible to students and educators.
If you would like to support future development, website hosting, new recordings, or expanded classroom resources, your contribution is sincerely appreciated—but never expected.
Every contribution helps us add new phrases, record more fluent speakers, and continue providing this resource for students and educators.
