I’ve got a solid copy of Everyday Lakota: An English-Sioux Dictionary for Beginners, a later revised printing designed for practical use. This one isn’t just a word list—it’s built to actually help someone learn and use the language.
Inside, it covers dictionary entries, commonly used phrases, idiomatic conversation examples, reservation-style dialogue, time and number systems, native animals and birds, plus pronunciation and grammar sections. It’s the kind of book that stays useful instead of getting replaced after a week.
Condition is honest and usable. Covers show light shelf wear from normal handling. There is a barcode sticker on the back cover. Inside, there is a short handwritten inscription on the front blank page. The rest of the interior is clean with clear text and strong structure throughout.
This is a great pickup for language learners, educators, Sioux studies buyers, or anyone building a collection around Indigenous language preservation.
