Mino-Miigwechwigiizhigad
Mino-Miigwechwigiizhigad, which is an Ojibwe phrase that is often used as “Happy Thanksgiving” among the Northeastern Amerindian tribes. And yes, for the scholars out there, I could have instead used, “Ohèn:ton Karihwatéhkwen,” which is the Kanien’kéha (Mohawk dialect of the Haudenosaunee language group) phrase for “Thanksgiving Address.” However, the Ohèn:ton Karihwatéhkwen isn’t related to the American Thanksgiving holiday and is or was used quite often at the beginning of meetings throughout the year.
But, in that vein, I will give thanks to the Creator for the things that go about on the earth, especially the native beauties that do so. 😉
