The French settlers in North America became particularly adept at Native American languages and skills. They often established trade relationships and alliances with Indigenous tribes, which required them to learn local languages and customs. French fur traders, missionaries, and explorers frequently interacted with Native peoples, leading to a deep understanding of their cultures and languages. This facilitated both economic and diplomatic relations between the French and various Indigenous groups.
