Lakota language
Lakota (also Lakhota, Teton, Teton Sioux) is a Siouan language spoken by the Lakota people of the Sioux tribes. Though generally taught and considered by speakers as a separate language, Lakota is mutually intelligible with the other two languages (cf. Dakota language), and is considered by most linguists one of the three major varieties of the Sioux language. The Lakota language represents one of the largest Native American language speech communities in the United States, with approximately 6,000 speakers living mostly in northern plains states of North Dakota and South Dakota.〔(Lakota ). Online version of: Gordon, Raymond G., Jr. (ed.), 2005. ''Ethnologue: Languages of the World'' (15th ed.). Dallas: SIL International.

The language was first put into written form by missionaries around 1840 and has since evolved to reflect contemporary needs and usage.
==History and origin==
The Lakota people's creation stories say that language originated from the creation of the tribe.〔SNEVE, PAUL. 2013. "Anamnesis in the Lakota Language and Lakota Concepts of Time and Matter."
