Aski

Really good and btw it is Zoey

Great!

This is a wonderful app! The only things that would make this better is providing the other languages in written forms as well and not just vocally. I was hoping syllabics would be used for Cree. English being the only writing system used isn't promoting literacy skills in Cree, Dene and Michif. Oh and get Ojibwa in there too, please! Thank you for providing this!!
