WELCOME TO "BOWATUNG GICHIAMING ODENNA" ..... English and Anishnabemowin (Ojibway Language) do not translate equally ....... Anishinabemowin is a verb based language ....... this of course reflects our world view ... which is that everything has a spirit and relationships are imperative .......... everything is in flux ....English is noun based ---- thus it is easier to categorize things ---- ie village town city .......... BOWATUNG ..... name for rapids area--- joining of Lake Superior to Lake Huron ......... GICHIAMING ---- essentially lake superior ........ ODENA .... a community .... place of many hearts
