The plural form is naadawesiwag (snakes).French explorers had trouble (as always) with the Ojibwe word and shortened it to just "siw", which they spelled Sioux in French - it is therefore definitely not a French word but a short form of an Ojibwe word.Sioux means absolutely nothing in any of the Siouan languages, since it is not a Siouan word, but Ojibwe.
