Mood board of this afternoon
Long eared dog (dachshund) tucked into a blanket with his head on a pillow Screenshot of Cherokee English dictionary (Feeling, 1975) entry for adj. “long-eared” with an example sentence translated “the long eared hound dog got his ear caught in the fence because his ear was so long”. Half the words are naturally from similar roots
