How do you say Good morning my family and friends In Navajo?

Answer 1

To respect oneself : 'ádił nishdlį́

(I don't think my grammar is up to it if you want this to be a command or imperative.)

Here is a short passage on how to develop respect for others and oneself. Direct commands are not really the Navajo cultural way.

K'é shį́į́ bóhoo'aah dooleeł. T'áá hó jizį́įgi ádaa'ákozdínóodzįįł. Áádóó ádiłjídlį́į dooleeł. Áadi éí hamá dóó hazhé'é da dóó índa biłhajííjéé' k'é náábijididoo'niił dóó hołnilíi dooleeł. Áádóó t'áá ałtso hak'éí k'é bijididooniił dóó hołnilíi dooleeł naat'áanii t'áá ééltxą'go. Bíla'ashdla'ii ałtso k'é bizhdííniidgo éí hanaa hólónígíí. Nihoosdzáán lá. Jį́honaa'éí, tł'ééhonaa'éí, yádiłhxił, tó, dził, kǫ', honeeshgish, na'ashǫ́'ii dich'ízhii t'áá díkwíhí bitxaa'ééji'go. Áádóó éí doo yiit'ínígíí: Haashch'ééłti'í, Asdzą́ą́ Nádleehí, Haashch'é'ówaan. Diyin Dine'é danilínígíí. Díigii át'éego t'áá ałtso hołnilíí dóó jidísin łeh dajiní. T'áá shį́į́ bóhoo'aahgo hool'á.

"One way to learn to respect is to learn kinship terms. You start with yourself. Then your parents, siblings and immediate family. They say when you use kinship terms, you develop respect for those people. Then you begin to greet other relatives in the community including your leaders. After establishing kinship relations to all humans and develop and gain mutual respect, then you learn kinship relations with the natural environment like the earth, the sun, the moon, the sky, the water, the mountains, the fire, the horned toad...just to name a few. Then we establish relationships with those that we don't actually see but we know they exist like the Holy People. In this way, we establish respect for all that surround us."

Answer 2

You look in a mirror (or other highly reflective surface) and say "HI" - but don't let others catch you at this too much or go much past "HI" or they tend to take you away in a funny white jacket.
