		Adai, a language isolate known only from a 275-word list, may be a Caddoan language, but the documentation is too scanty to determine with certainty.
		Caddoan as part of Macro-Siouan is a possibility, but more research is required to determine the validity of this proposal.

	Language families and languages - Open Encyclopedia
		Languages that cannot be reliably classified into any family are known as language isolates.
		Thus, provincial dialects of Latin ("Vulgar Latin") gave rise to the modern Romance languages, so the Proto-Romance language is more or less identical with Latin (if not exactly with the literary Latin of the Classical writers), and dialects of Old Norse are the protolanguage to Norwegian, Swedish, Danish and Icelandic.
		Language families can be subdivided into smaller units, conventionally referred to as "branches" (because the history of a language family is often represented as a "tree" diagram).

	Siouan Languages and Related Subjects
		I don't mind answering questions on Siouan languages, including things like "What's the word for [your choice]?", or "Is there a word for [your choice]?", but if what you really need is a good reference work of some kind, and I know it exists, you might get a bibliographical citation instead.
		Subsequent to that I was an associate at the now defunct SILP (Study of Indigenous Languages Program), originally known as the Center for the Study of the Native Languages of the Plains and Southwest (CeSNaLPS) - or the Plains Center for short.
		It's not want of pleasantness on the part of the speakers of the languages, of course, just cultural differences on what formulas are needed and how much contextual variation there may be in the formulas that exist.

	Native American Language Net: Preserving and promoting indigenous American Indian languages
		Actually, Native American languages do not belong to a single Amerindian family, but 25-30 small ones; they are usually discussed together because of the small numbers of natives speaking most of these languages and how little is known about many of them.
		These are linguistically diverse languages deserving of individual attention, and it is very difficult to make accurate generalizations about them as a group.
		We are a small non-profit organization dedicated to the survival of Native American languages, particularly through the use of Internet technology.

		Four of these are on Plains languages: Ives Goddard’s “The Languages of the Plains: Introduction” provides an overview of the linguistic diversity of the area (skillfully illustrated by comparative lexical data), with general comments on the Plains languages other than Algonquian, Caddoan, and Siouan, i.e.
		The Caddoan and Siouan articles also contain sections on comparative phonology, major structural characteristics of the family, and borrowings, and are extremely useful summaries of information on the respective families.
		But DeMallie (the second editor; he took over from the late William W. Bittle in 1983) has done a splendid job of ensuring that recent research is taken into account, and all of the language articles are thoroughly up-to-date.

	Caddo
		The Caddo historically consisted of three confederacies of at least twenty five different tribes and spoke a variety of dialects of the Caddoan languages.
		At one time both the Wichita and Pawnee were part of the same nation as the Caddo, a fact attested to in that the Whichita and Pawnee spoke Caddoan languages.
		Today the Caddo are a cohesive tribe with their capital at Binger, Oklahoma, and the Caddoan dialects have converged into a single language.

		The ultimate goal of that work is to contribute to the reconstruction of American Indian culture history generally, but the focus of it is the study of the languages of the Great Plains, particularly the Caddoan and Siouan peoples.
		Finally, a fundamental part of my study of endangered languages and North American culture history is the recording, editing, and translating of native language texts, both those recorded from contemporary raconteurs and those in documentary collections of stories compiled earlier in the century.
		Another dimension of my career is native North American philology, the study of older linguistic records of American Indian languages, and the combination of American Indian language research with the writing and interpretation of history.

	biology - Pawnee
		Descended from Caddoan linguistic stock, the Pawnee are not typically known as Plains Indians in the context of traditional representations; their villages constructed of earthen lodges tended to be permanent.
		In the 19th century, epidemics of smallpox and cholera wiped out most of the Pawnee, reducing the population to approximately 600 by the year 1900; as of 2002, there are approximately 2500 Pawnee.
		They were an agricultural people who grew maize, beans, pumpkins and squash.

		EuroScript allows you to type the accents and special characters of 21 European languages using only the semicolon and slash keys to produce all their special characters.
		TransRoman differs from TransSlavic by not covering Roman Azerbaijani and Lappish, plus its keyboard layout is optimized for west European languages.
		For example, all of the diacritical marks of Romanian can be produced just by typing a semicolon after a letter with which that diacritical mark is associated.
