from Anishinaabemowin Word Parts · host anishinaabemowinwordparts

In this episode Dené and Rochelle explore medials—middle word parts that can be hard for English speakers to recognize—and discuss how medials create more specific, “elegant” expressions. They outline some categories including: classifiers, incorporated nouns, environmental medials. They focus on -abiig- (string-like), sharing a clip from an interview with Alan Corbiere and give practical examples involving yarn, cords and cables, and even body parts.
