The two videos are a good interplay of the language...one a direct teaching....from Floyd Looks for Buffalo Hand, the next is a clip from the movie "Dances with Wolves" There is actually an error between the use of the word Han...males and females have a different way of speaking...but the video is good to hear an interchange of the language between two people.
