Common card · No. 437718

Crow (native name: Apsáalooke [ə̀ˈpsâːɾòːɡè] or [ə̀ˈpsâːlòːɡè]) is a Western Siouan language spoken primarily by the Crow Tribe in present-day southeastern Montana. The word Apsáalooke translates to "Children of the Large Beaked Bird" (from apá 'beak/nose', isáa 'big', dooká 'child'), which was later incorrectly translated into English as 'Crow'. It is one of the larger populations of American Indian languages with around 3,650 speakers according to the 2017-2021 American Community Survey.
