Lessons and exercises

This section contains lessons on topics such as numbers, colors, commands (or imperatives), time and hours of the day, and body parts. There are also lessons to learn how to count objects and animals, to name them, and to assign monetary values to objects. These lessons include a brief explanation of the grammar and vocabulary involved as well as multiple exercises to practice your Wendat language skills. The answers to these exercises are included at the end of the lesson so that you can evaluate your progress.

Some lessons are prerequisites to others. For example, it is recommended to complete the lessons on numbers before attempting the lesson about money and value. To help guide you in your language learning, a list of the lessons along with their prerequisites is available below.
