Ojibwe (Anishinaabemowin)

Ojibwe, or Anishinaabemowin, is spoken by around 36,000 people in the United States and Canada. It has multiple dialects and can be written in either the Latin alphabet or the traditional Canadian Aboriginal syllabics. Ojibwe is agglutinative, with a flexible word order and complex verb morphology. As a key Indigenous language of North America, it is central to Anishinaabe cultural traditions, storytelling, and spiritual life, and revitalization efforts are underway through immersion schools and community programs.
