Crow is a Missouri Valley Siouan language spoken primarily by the Crow Nation in present-day southeastern Montana. It is has
one of the larger populations of American Indian languages with 4,280 speakers according to the 1990 US Census. It is closely
related to Hidatsa spoken by the Hidatsa tribe of the Dakotas; the two languages are the only members of the Missouri Valley
Siouan family. The ancestor of Crow-Hidatsa may have constituted the initial split from Proto-Siouan. Crow and Hidatsa are
not mutually intelligible, however the two languages share many phonological features, cognates and have similar morphologies
and syntax. The split between Crow and Hidatsa may have occurred between 300 and 800 years ago. |
