+hollora Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Well - you have mail - I think I covered all the possibilities - kicking and hoping! Here's to your son's study of this discipline! Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted June 19, 2008 Author Share Posted June 19, 2008 RE: Randumb Question 6 I'm getting a lot of good answers but y'all aren't being specific enough so to help you out here is a chart of the possible belts my son could have. All ya gotta do is guess which one. White Yellow Yellow First Green Green First Blue Blue first Red Red First Red Second Recommendation Black Hope this helps. CF30 Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted June 19, 2008 Author Share Posted June 19, 2008 (edited) Hollora is the first person to send the correct answer. Red First is my son's belt in Tae Kwon Do. A lot of you sent Red, Blue, Green, Yellow etc. but did not send Red Black, Blue Red, Green, Blue, etc. I guess this could have been confusing if you are not familiar with Tae Kwon Do belts...

+FluteFace Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I wanted to know more about Yáahl, so Googled up this interesting story: Yáahl Raven by Erma Lawrence Original version published in: Xaadas Gyaahláang (1974), Society for the Preservation of Haida Language and Literature. Yáahl uu st'igáalaan, hal st'i'áwyaagaan. Raven got sick, he was very sick. 'Wáadluu xíl hal tlaahláayaan. Then he made some medicine. Gut'iláa k'íit k'uts hal ts'asláangaan. He boiled different kinds of tree roots. 'Wáadluu sáng kwáan hal néilaan gyaan hal 'lagáalaan Then he drank it for many days and got well. Asgáayst hal xitgwáangaan táawk uu hal diyáangaan. Then he flew around looking for food. 'Wáadluu, chíin kwáan gándlaay aa hal táagaan. Then he ate a lot of fish in a creek. Hal sk'ísdlaayaan gyaan xitgáay aa hal jagíyaayaan. He got full and couldn't fly. 'Wáadluu hingáan an sáanjuudaayaan. So, then, he just rested. Ahljíihl uu tl' hlgúujuu jahlíis gám 'láa'anggang. That is why it doesn't pay to be too greedy. It was interesting to me that my grandmother's name was also Erma Lawrence. Quote Link to comment
