Mastery of Navajo language also requires a level of familiarity with Navajo customs, something even some Indigenous people no longer have access to. </p><p>"That said, the most daunting aspect of learning Navajo is the language itself. Described by linguists Robert W. Young and William Morgan as a 'hopeless maze of irregularities,' its unique grammar, syntax, and tonal pronunciation are so indecipherable to outsiders that, during the Second World War, the American army used Navajo as a form of military code."</p><p><a href="https://bigthink.com/high-culture/navajo-language/?utm_source=pocket-newtab-en-us" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">bigthink.com/high-culture/nava</span><span class="invisible">jo-language/?utm_source=pocket-newtab-en-us</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CulturalPreservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CulturalPreservation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousLanguages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IndigenousLanguages</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousCulture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IndigenousCulture</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Linguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linguistics</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Anthropology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Anthropology</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Codetalkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Codetalkers</span></a></p>
