Klahowya konaway tillikums,

I am a chee chako to Chinook Wawa. But in the spirit of the Jargon's
original intent, I think it's best prevent any 'dialect' from becoming
too different from any other given version. It is good, in fact hyas
kloshe, to speak and learn your local version of the Jargon. One should
also readily learn, and assimilate if reasonable, any way speaking or
spelling you encounter. After all, the Jargon was used by people who
spoke different languages because it was more easy to learn than any
given native tongue (ie.: Native Am., Pacific, Asian or Euro.)

Nawitka?
