Cherokee Translation

Translation Request

Greetings!

Can you please kindly help me translate this article into the Cherokee language?

Your help would be very gratefully appreciated, Thankyou very much!

(Aaron Walden told me that the Cherokee name for the church would be " ᏗᎦᎳᏫᏍᏗ ᏥᏌᏯ". What is your opinion?)

Well, here's what Aaron gave you:

digalawisdi tsisaya

"saya" (and sayani) are corrupted words for "zion" (which is a phonetic equivalent of the word, not the meaning of "land of god" - unelanvhiyi, however the way its worded is not what he was saying I do not believe.

tsitsaya means "I am getting married" (tsi is first person "talking about myself" is is used the same as "I" in english).

One other possibily has to do with corruption of the syllabary in Oklahoma by converrting "ts" sounds into "j" sounds. The word for Jesus is "ji-sa" (in syllabary tsi-sa). So "tsisaya" can also mean - The place of Jesus covering all the people, since "ya" at the end of a word also means "of broad concern or broad area or broad coverage"

"galawi" is the root noun for the word "digalawisdi" and it means "proxy" or "representative". adding "di" makes it plural and -s-di means its a permaent place or condition (or position, like a minister).

So the way he gave you the word is:

"digalawisdi tsisaya" - place of meeting of the proxies (representatives of Christ) where I am going to get married or "place of meeting of the proxies of Jesus Christ (broad meaning)". -- basically "Church of Christ" -- a particular denomination.

There are a lot of strange Otali word usage dialects in Oklahoma, so I am not ruling out that Aaron may have gotten it from one of the Vian communities, however, here are the accepted words for Church in various Cherokee dialects:

Otali (Oklahoma):

church:digalawisdi

churches:tsunilawisdi

Giduwa (North Carolina)

church:danilawiga

church:digalawiisdi

church:tsunilawisdi

Note use of the prefix "tsu", which is first person for a word about human beings. Most words in our language append "u" or "tsu" (plural/singular) to words about people. Places and non-human objects use "di".

Here is the translation:

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Jose77. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Jose77~chrwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
