00:00:00,000 –> 00:00:08,482
Iho̱o̱chason hachimmankala̱ mooliip.
I’m going to tell you an old story.

2
00:00:08,482 –> 00:00:19,725
Hinaayap ampolontoklon awah totchiinin amohaiyiip.
Now, I am seventy-three years old.

3
00:00:19,725 –> 00:00:24,036
Kaamiifookok, achachoobo̱ aalol hinaap.
So I think I am old now.

4
00:00:24,036 –> 00:00:32,100
Kaamiis, ya amanihtat aataliifookap pokkol awah ontokloofookok,
So when I was young about seventeen years old,

5
00:00:32,100 –> 00:00:37,028
ammaama̱, antaata̱ stoklo̱ immankalik aminchaalilahon.
I told my mom and dad to sign me up.

6
00:00:37,028 –> 00:00:44,150
Naho̱, service-koot chokhaliikalaik chabannaafookok.
‎‎I wanted to get into the service.

7
00:00:44,150 –> 00:00:47,475
Kantik aminchaaliibaanon aththalaikchommok.
But the only way to go was for them to sign me up.

8
00:00:47,475 –> 00:00:51,713
Mootohok aminchahlin athiiyalit.
Then they signed me up and I went.

9
00:00:51,713 –> 00:00:56,875
Athtakaayoofookap, naaso̱hya̱ sobbaililik aalolihchoolik.
Before I went, I thought I knew everything.

10
00:00:56,875 –> 00:01:00,813
Mootohok, inchahlok, chokhaliikalok,
Then when I signed up and went in,

11
00:01:00,813 –> 00:01:04,332
aataliifookap sobbaililik nanchasobaikohchootok.
I learned that I didn’t know anything.

12
00:01:04,332 –> 00:01:08,563
Ohaiyi ostaakan naholiitok ommook,
I had signed up for four years,

13
00:01:08,563 –> 00:01:13,075
“Hinaap saamin yahchon ilinchaaliliitooli̱?” aalolik.
and I thought, “Why did I sign up for this?”

14
00:01:13,075 –> 00:01:19,049
Chokhaliikat bakki̱ hissootok ikson ansahlok mat-hochapithkaabaanon.
Getting in, they shaved off my hair.

15
00:01:19,049 –> 00:01:26,749
Maamoosok kolostinkabiin amalpiskohchootok sobbaililik.
Then I learned that I didn’t have enough knowledge.

16
00:01:26,749 –> 00:01:30,687
Hokonlikitkat, hokotohnot, naason sa̱hila̱
They fussed at us and told us what to do

17
00:01:30,687 –> 00:01:33,582
atlawistasi̱ yaamooson hokochikkiit naahoofookon.
and treated us like little kids.

18
00:01:33,582 –> 00:01:48,713
Mootoskaap, naho̱, mootohok aataliifookap, maan waachiliik, an-seventeen naimaththok waachit aatalitoomattok,
‎‎I had waited to turn seventeen to get in,

19
00:01:48,713 –> 00:01:53,029
chokhalihkalok aataliifookap, ohaiyi ostaakan inchaaliliitok ommok,
and had signed up for four years, and then I wanted to hurry up

20
00:01:53,029 –> 00:01:57,450

and turn twenty-one.

21
00:01:57,450 –> 00:02:00,212
Mootoskaap, maan, stankaanohchoolik.
As days went, I liked it.

22
00:02:00,212 –> 00:02:06,352
Katik, thoikat iilok aatalitok, maan chokhaliikallao̱ aaloliitooliiyok,
But I came home thinking I would go back,

23
00:02:06,352 –> 00:02:12,158
stakano ya aata achon achhalihkalok, achhaliik stankaanoofookok
but I enjoyed being out,

24
00:02:12,158 –> 00:02:17,100
ath–, athtakaayot, piila stachonafailok, piila athiiyalik trade school-kon.
I didn’t go back and went to trade school.

25
00:02:17,100 –> 00:02:21,168
Motoskaak, ottiltonohlok, haalahkat
And then I went to work, moved

26
00:02:21,168 –> 00:02:25,738
tokpon chokoolok aatat stachonasihnohchok ommihchok.
and settled somewhere else and got old living there.

27
00:02:25,738 –> 00:02:29,325
Kaamis, stankaanohchok aataliifaamok.
So I like where I’m living.

28
00:02:29,325 –> 00:02:34,775
Yaaliimook, istilkabaanafaamok iilaliik stankaanotik,
I like coming here where we have always lived

29
00:02:34,775 –> 00:02:37,294

but I like where I’m living too.

30
00:02:37,294 –> 00:02:46,424
Kaamis, yaamoosiimaam. Mokkoop stakanofiinon naathiikaliis. Moos, mooliip.
So that’s about it.
