WHAT DOES ATHABASCAN MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Athabaskan languages

Athabaskan or Athabascan is a large family of indigenous languages of North America, located in two main Southern and Northern groups in western North America. In terms of territory, only the Algic languages cover a larger area. Most Athabaskans prefer to be identified by their specific language and location. Although the general term Athabascan persists in linguistics and anthropology, in 2012 the annual Athabaskan Languages Conference changed its name to the Dene Languages Conference.
