Beaver, also known as Tsattine and by the people themselves as Danezaa (ᑕᓀᖚ ''Dane-zaa, Dunneza'') or Dane-zaa Zaageʔ ("people-regular language"), is an Athabascan language of western Canada. About half of the Danezaa people speak the language. Beaver is closely related to the languages spoken by neighboring Athabaskan groups, such as Slavey, Sekani, Sarcee, Chipewyan, and Kaska. == Dialects == The dialects of Dane-zaa language are two main groups. Dialects that developed high tone from stem-final glottalic consonants are called ''high-marked'' and dialects that developed low tone ''low-marked''. From north to south are as follows:〔Julia Colleen Miller 2013.
