Hello in Babine: Xatk'ex daxwa (ᖓɑ̈tʰək’ɛx dɑ̀xwa)

Translation: "I greet you warmly."

The Babine language, also known as Witsuwit’en (ᗔᙣᗔᗥᐣ), is an Indigenous language spoken by the Babine people in British Columbia, Canada. Interestingly, it has a unique writing system that combines Latin and traditional Indigenous symbols, making it one of the few languages to use this hybrid script. Despite facing challenges due to colonization, the Babine community is actively working to preserve and revitalize their language.
