	Algonquin language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For the larger language family of which Algonquin is but one member, see Algonquian.
		Algonquin (or Algonkin) is an Algonquian language closely related to Ojibwe, although many consider it to be instead a particularly divergent dialect of Ojibwe.
		It is spoken, alongside French and to some extent English, by the Algonquin First Nations of Quebec and Ontario.

		The Algonquian (also Algonkian) languages are a subfamily of Native American languages that includes most of the languages in the Algic language family (others are Wiyot and Yurok of northwestern California).
		The group is sometimes said to have included the extinct Beothuk language of Newfoundland, although evidence is scarce and poorly recorded, and the claim is mainly based on geographic proximity.
		Because Algonquian languages were some of the first that Europeans came in contact with in North America, the language family has given many words to English.

	Algonquin Tribe and Nation
		Algonquin (or Algonkin) are used in reference to the tribe, but Algonquian either refers to the Algonquin language or to the group of tribes that speak related dialects.
		Because the Northern climates made agriculture difficult, the Algonquin were a semi-nomadic people, moving their encampments from one place to the next in search of food, which came from hunting, trapping, fishing and the gathering of various plant roots, seeds, wild rice and berries.
		The Algonquin social structure was patriarchal; men were the leaders and the heads of the family and territorial hunting rights were passed from father to son.

	Facts for Kids: Algonquin Indians (Algonquins)
		We encourage students, especially older kids, to look through our main Algonquin language and culture pages for more in-depth information about the tribe, but here are some straightforward answers to the questions we are most often asked by children, with Algonquin pictures and links we believe are especially suitable for all ages.
		The Algonquins call themselves "Anishnabe" or "Anishinabe" in their own language, which means "original person." (The plural is "Anishnabek" or "Anishnabeg.") However, Algonquins consider the word "anishnabek" to apply to neighboring groups of Indians also, so when they are referring to their tribe specifically they will usually use "Algonquins" or "Algonkins" to distinguish themselves.
		In times of war, Algonquin men usually shaved their heads in the Mohawk style, using grease to stiffen their hair so that it spiked up and occasionally augmenting it with a porcupine roach with a feather in it.

	Algonquin Language and the Algonquin Indian Tribe (Algonkin, Anishnabe, Algonquins)
		Language: Algonquin is the language for which the Algonquian language family is named.
		The Algonquins call themselves "Anishnabe" or "Anishnabek" (the original people) in their own language, just as their kinfolk the Ojibwa, Ottawa, and Potawatomi do, but use the word "Algonquin" to differentiate themselves from these other tribes, from whom they have always maintained political independence.
		The Algonquins jumped at the deal; however, though the French were good friends to the Algonquins, they did not make such good allies, and the powerful Iroquois, aided first by the Dutch and later by the English, defeated the French and Algonquins alike.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Algonquins
		The name Algonquin seemed to be a general designation, and it is not certain that they were united in a confederation at least in one as compact and as permanent as that of the Iroquois, who supplanted and crushed them.
		But as the actual number of Algonquins now living is in excess of that, it is more than likely that the early missionaries did not exaggerate and that there may have been nearly a quarter of a million of them, as some moderns still claim.
		According to one authority the number of Indians of Algonquin stock in 1902 was estimated at about 82,000 souls, of whom 43,000 are in the United States, the remainder being in Canada with the exception of a few refugees in Mexico.
