Best Answer

To be handsome:

bíiyis,

baaí dzólní,

nizhóní,

'ayóí 'áneeshłin

The marks over vowels are to mark high tone, not accent or stress. Navajo is tonal and tone can completely change the meaning of a word.

The L with a line is not in English. There is a similar sound in Welsh. It is an aspirated unvoiced L sound. Put the tongue in L position and blow out around the tongue.

Two ii is like in "bee"

One i is like in "bit"

A is like in "father". Two aa is held longer.

e is like in "met". Two ee is held longer.
