The United Nations has declared 2019 as the International Year of Indigenous Languages. To celebrate, for each month this year, you’re invited to view greetings for different languages.

For April, we feature the languages Aboriginal (Yankunyjatjara) and German:

German

Gott schütze dich – God bless you
