The
OJIBWE Language:
Ojibwe,
otherwise anglicized as Chippewa, Ojibwa or Ojibway and known to
its own speakers as Anishinabe or Anishinaabemowin, is an Algonquian
language spoken by 50,000 people in the northern United States and
southern Canada. There are five main dialects of the Ojibwe: Western
Ojibwe, Eastern Ojibwe, Norther Ojibwe (Severn Ojibwe or Oji-Cree),
Southern Ojibwe (Minnesota Ojibwe or Chippewa), and Ottawa (Odawa
or Odaawa). The Ottawa have always been politically independent
from the Ojibwe, but their language is essentially the same--speakers
of all five dialects, including Ottawa, can understand each other
readily. Many linguists also consider the Algonquin language to
be an Ojibwe dialcet, but it has diverged more and is difficult
for Western Ojibwe speakers to understand. As its name suggests,
Oji-Cree has borrowed many elements from Cree and is often written
in the Cree syllabary rather than the English alphabet. On the whole
Ojibwe is among the heartiest of North American languages, with
many children being raised to speak it as a native language.

The
Pimsleur Method:
With
Pimsleur language courses, you will quickly learn to speak Ojibwe
and understand it as well. You're not just learning "phrases"
with the Pimsleur method, you're acquiring essential, conversational
language skills! You'll be thrilled to discover you can hold real
conversations in your new language when you have finished the course.
Dr. Pimsleur devoted his life to language
teaching and was one of the world’s leading experts in applied
linguistics. After years of research and development, including
field studies of spoken language training with adults, Dr. Pimsleur
created a new method for self–instruction in spoken languages
that is based on the way the human brain takes in language as speech.
Of the several unique features of the Method, two key principles:
the Principle of Anticipation
and a scientific principle of memory that he called Graduated
Interval Recall This is the only language teaching program which
incorporates these essential principles to provide you with the
most easy–to–do, amazingly rapid, and highly cost–effective
learning method available.
