hello
The Miwok people spoke several dialects of the Miwok language, which belongs to the Penutian language family. There are three main divisions of Miwok: Northern Miwok, Central Miwok, and Southern Miwok, each with its own distinct dialects. These languages were traditionally spoken in the area that is now Northern California. Today, efforts are being made to revitalize and preserve the Miwok languages.
The Lake Miwok people traditionally spoke the Miwok language, specifically a dialect known as Lake Miwok. This language is part of the larger Penutian language family, which includes several other indigenous languages of California. However, Lake Miwok is now considered extinct, with few fluent speakers remaining. Efforts are ongoing to revitalize the language and preserve the cultural heritage of the Lake Miwok people.
The Coast Miwok Indians spoke various dialects of the Miwok language, which is part of the Penutian language family. The dialects spoken by the Coast Miwok people included Marin, Bodega, and Bolinas.
