➢ 20 culturally-relevant categories designed by Lakota speakers
➢ 10-25 words per category, for a total of 200-500 words!
➢ Audio pronunciation and visual aid for each word in the category
➢ Quiz yourself by matching English words to Lakota words, and vice versa
➢ Progress through levels to unlock new words
➢ Track your progress and review words you’ve learned by category or activity


Additional categories are available (~40 categories, and growing!) with purchase of the app, for only $0.99!

After downloading and opening the app, choose ‘Download New Words’ to get started on learning Lakota vocab!

Whether you are learning on your own, or taking a beginner’s Lakota class, Lakota Vocab Builder will help build your confidence in using new Lakota words!

Designed for learning that is memorable and fun!
Each word you match correctly increases your score, and each level you finish unlocks a new one! Words that are not matched correctly are repeated until you master them. This repetition method is an effective learning strategy.

Ratings and reviews

The only problem is that the "sound" button doesn't seem to work. I press the speaker and it makes a "tapping" sound, but it doesn't speak the word. I can't move past the voice section of the first category unless I guess (I want to learn not guess), nor do I get the benefit of hearing what the words sound like. If that wasn't an issue, I would have given 5 stars! Maybe it could be fixed? Edit: After a 3rd reinstall all seems to be working. Looking forward to using this!

The sound/pronunciation doesnt work on my Galaxy J3 V. I have tried an uninstall/reinstall and have my media volume all the way up. As well, I cannot type in the selected writing boxes. The rest works fine. UPDATE: Just re-downloaded the app. I made sure the screen did not timeout during the download and launched it right after. The sound worked and the sound button was clickable. I did not try to type in the writing boxes yet, but I will when I see them and post another update. Thank you.

Did not get to even use the app! It's broken it keeps telling me to check my internet connection but yet my wifi at home and my phone internet are both working fine for everything else. The app is not working will not open I clicked on download words and it just keeps saying check my internet connection 😡 so I don't know what the app is like because it will not let me use it.
