Best Answer

The tribe today called Washoe (originally Waashiw) speak a language unrelated to any other - it is classed as "endangered" and very few native speakers remain. Happily there are now efforts to rescue the language and preserve its words.

In Waashiw the word for wolf is tulí:ši' - you say toolee-shee'.

If you're one-quarter Indian does that make you one?

According to Red Wolf, a native American, "MORE THAN 20 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE UNITED STATES ARE OF NATIVE AMERICAN INDIAN MIXED BLOOD. IF YOU HAVE ONE DROP OF INDIAN BLOOD, YOU ARE INDIAN. WALK THE INDIAN PATH AS YOUR HEART FEELS". Don't forget all the Indians in Asian India. Whether you are a member of a particular ethnic group if you have one parent from that group, one grandparent, one great-grandparent, or "one drop of blood" (an obsolete and racist way of saying "any ancestry no matter how small") is a matter of how you and the culture you live in looks at things. There is no universal agreement on this point. In the days of American segregation, having a great-great-grandparent who was black would make you black - as long as your skin was also dark. The Nazis held that anyone was Jewish if they had one grandparent who was Jewish. Advocates for Native Americans, who want to preserve Native identity in the face of widespread intermarriage with descendants of Europeans over the centuries, will say that anyone with any native ancestry is a native American - thus leaving it to the individual to discover and assert that connection. On the other hand, US government criteria for recognizing a Native American for purposes of receiving government benefits is more restrictive.
