The Land That Gives Life

Language

WZnWnB

Teachings are passed down through the generations through stories and songs in Anishinaabemowin, the Ojibwe language. In Pimachiowin Aki, this ancient language is in vibrant everyday use. It is often the first language children learn to speak.

It is important that a person maintains his or her language in order to understand the land.

Anishinaabe Elder, in translation
