About Hidatsa Vocab Builder
Build your Hidatsa vocabulary with the Hidatsa Language Project’s FREE vocabulary game for your Android phone or tablet. Quiz yourself every day to learn different categories – wild animals, food, drinks, and more! The free version of the app includes:
➢ 20 culturally-relevant categories designed by Hidatsa speakers
➢ 10-25 words per category, for a total of 200-500 words!
➢ Audio pronunciation and visual aid for each word in the category
➢ Quiz yourself by matching English words to Hidatsa words, and vice versa
➢ Progress through levels to unlock new words
➢ Track your progress and review words you’ve learned by category or activity
Additional categories are available (~40 categories, and growing!) with purchase of the app, for only $0.99!
After downloading and opening the app, choose ‘Download New Words’ to get started on learning Hidatsa vocab!
Installation instructions: Download the app to your Android device. When you open the app, click "Download New Words". You will see a screen showing the progress of the download that says "Downloading Database". On some versions of Android, the download may stall at 50%. In the case that this happens, simply restart your phone and the app will be ready to use.
Whether you are learning on your own, or taking a beginner’s Hidatsa class, Hidatsa Vocab Builder will help build your confidence in using new Hidatsa words!
➢Designed for learning that is memorable and fun!
Each word you match correctly increases your score, and each level you finish unlocks a new one! Words that are not matched correctly are repeated until you master them. This repetition method is an effective learning strategy.

The app is simple and easy to use! Very useful in trying to teach my kids who aren't exposed to our language on an everyday basis! Thank you to the MHA Nation and to the people who took the time to develop this app! A++
