Hello there :wave:
I'm just curious to know if anyone around here knows how to speak, even if only some words, Okinawan?
Nice group :aww:

Haisai!!!
I know some words, but not so many.
Also it depends on what you want to learn or say. ^^

Haisai~! :wave:
For quite a long time now I've searched the Internet for words in Okinawan and have found some sites that look good, but alas it is still difficult to find more words :no:

Well, I recently found that "Chaachaa" means "Daddy" - is that true? (I've seen more than once that "Suu" is "Father")
And I know "Anmaa" is "Mother", but is there a version that's "Mommy"?

Oh and thank you~ :iconarigatouplz:

I think that okinawan dialect is quite uneasy to learn.
I will try to help you at my level.
I am not sure that "chaachaa" means daddy ("Suu" means definitely father) but there is another word to call father; it's "taarii". Unfortunately, I can't teach you the nuance of this word as I don't know myself.
For Mommy, there is a word that could be close. it's " Ayaa". Once again, the nuance is kind of hard to define for me.
Hope it could help! ^^

That's so sad... I understand how you feel.
I left there one year ago... still not healing. I want to go back there.
Take a lot of pictures! This club is also here for that... sharing fond memories.
