Native Americans have influenced the English language in many ways. Native American words have found their way into military communications. Native American words are also used to name cities, and roads in the United States. For example, the Wampanoag trail in Rhode Island.

What is the native language maeans to the europeans?

Your native language is the language you learned as a child. The Europeans have no native language. Instead, people in Europe have a number of native languages. Most people on this earth learn two or three languages. That way they can communicate with their closest neighbors. England used to have a great commercial empire. They spread their language far and wide. It became convenient for people to learn English to trade with the English. People who traded with the English and Americans could then use English to trade with each other. English became an important language for world business. Each country kept its native language. Each of the 28 nations of the European Common Market have all of its documents translated into its native language. That means there are 28 different translations done of every document. Most of the work of the Common Market is done in a language derived from English. It uses a simplified vocabulary and is developing its own idioms. Americans can easily understand it but have not been trained in using it. In America, the Indians spoke their native language. They now learn English. Many of them still speak their native language.
