Wintertime is upon us, ready or not! As we enter our snowy season, peepoonki, we start curling up next to the fire, drinking hot chocolate, and telling aalhsoohkaana ‘winter stories.’

Here are a few sentences you can use throughout the season to talk about snow! Be sure to search them in the dictionary to hear them.
manetwa piihsaata ‘it is snowing, it snowed’
manetwa kati piihsaata ‘it is going to snow’
kooniki ‘there is snow on the ground’
kooniwi kati ‘there is/was snow on the ground’
What’s the weather forecast for you this winter? Let us know in the comments!
