Blackfoot, also known as Siksika (ᓱᖽᐧᖿ) – the language's denomination in ISO 639-3 – Pikanii, and Blackfeet, is the Algonquian
language spoken by the Blackfoot tribes of Native Americans, who currently live in the northwestern plains of North America.
There are four dialects of Blackfoot, three of which are spoken in Alberta, Canada and one of which is spoken in the United
States: Siksiká (Blackfoot), to the southeast of Calgary, Alberta; Kainai (Blood), spoken in Alberta between Cardston and
Lethbridge; Aapátohsipikani (Northern Piegan), to the west of Fort MacLeod; and Aamsskáápipikani (Southern Piegan), in northwestern
Montana. There is a distinct difference between Old Blackfoot (also called High Blackfoot), the dialect spoken by many older
speakers; and New Blackfoot (also called Modern Blackfoot), the dialect spoken by younger speakers. Among fellow members of
the Algonquian languages, it is relatively divergent in phonology and lexicon. Like the other Algonquian languages, Blackfoot
is typologically polysynthetic. |
