Language

Pónka Íye-the! The Ponca Language
Need help saying the words? Hear audio recordings on the PTN website at
poncatribe-ne.tv/category/language/ and refer to the pronunciation guide
on this page.
Our Ponca words have been color coded with the corresponding English
word. As you can see, English is most of the time backwards to Ponca. And
remember, our Ponca words have more meaning than what English words
can approximate. So, just because the Ponca word(s) is used for a English
word in one sentence doesn’t always mean it will be used for that English
word in all sentences.

Due to the recent report
that was done by the
Nebraska State Patrol,
we know that our Native
young men are just as affected by this epidemic as
our women. This is why
we chose to focus our
efforts on our Murdered
and Missing Relatives

Recently the Osni Ponka
Youth Council has submitted a Business Plan
to UNITY. UNITY is a
national network organization promoting personal development, citizenship, and leadership
among Native American
youth. This project was
worked on by three of
our members: Makayla
Laravie, Maci Schott, and
Cami Schott. We created
a business plan that ties
into our MMIR 5K we
plan to attend in May
of 2021. This business
plan was centered around
murdered and missing
indigenous relatives. In
the United States, Native
American women are
more than twice as likely
to experience violence
than any other demographic. One in three
Native women is sexually
assaulted during her life,
and 67% of these assaults are perpetrated by
non-natives.
