What a good job of finding these, I am Klamath Tribe from Southern Oregon & Blackfeet from MONTANA.
ulihelisdi danisdayohihv Is the Cherokee way
I'm trying to learn to speak Blackfoot. My grandmother was Blackfoot and my other grandmother was Yaqui.
IDK where you got the translation into Tlingit, but what I've seen ciculating for several years is: Sigowu (or Sigoowu) Kiswas. FYI I am unable to verify that - or your translation - as 'accurate.'
