Chahta imanumpa ish anumpola hinla ho? I didn't think so. So let me translate: "Do you speak Choctaw?" Well, chahta iskitini anumpuli li Oh I forgot you don't so let me translate again: "I speak a little Choctaw." Ok, well, on to my point, which is that I think Wilson was misguided. Okeh in Choctaw I believe is a pejorative for white settlers, sort of their way of saying "Honkie". I don't believe that Wilson realized this. I understand that this is a great source of amusement among the Choctaws today as he also scribbled this in the margin of the Treaty of Versailles. A little Choctaw graffiti on the document that ended the War to end all Wars. A more practical phrase that you can practice at home has many uses if you have a dog: toners.com (Let me translate again: "Did you set out food and water for your stinking dog?") (PS: Sorry for the long download, it seems the Choctaw at the other end is a little slow speaking into the microphone.)
