A Note on the Udugi Language

Please do not use the Udugi language for anything fraudulent. Do not, for example, say that it is "an ancient dialect, most closely related to the Cherokee of the Eastern Band of Cherokee." That is simply not true, and it is obviously not true (you'll get caught in your lie). Udugi was constructed on the basis of Cherokee vocabulary and a subset of Esperanto grammar. Esperanto was invented in 1885, which is hardly "ancient." If you say anything that is untrue about the language you are using, I will not give you any assistance whatsoever. If you are using Udugi, you must call it Udugi. If you have lost your original language, as many have, you need to be honest about that, too.

I cannot stop you from using Udugi: it belongs to everybody. But I will not participate in or assist any project that is dishonest or fraudulent.

Thank you and wadó. ꮹꮩ.

Donald C. Traxler (creator of the Udugi conlang)
