Depending on how you count there are 17 native languages in the Pacific Northwest and one Trade Jargon, Chinook. There actually were and are divisions between those groups that make more languages than that. Many of them are as different from each other as English and Arabic.
In Chinook Jargon, which developed to trade from one tribe to another and then to different European traders as well, the word for shark is: hyas kahmooks pish. The language was spoke by about 100,000 people at it's high point, around 1858. It was a language with a native base and English, French, Hawaiian, Chinese and other loan words. It is still used by some people today. At one time, many residents of Vancouver, BC spoke Chinook Jargon as their first language, even using it at home in preference to English.
