no one knows the true answer to this story. what we do know is that we dont know anything.
Sacaga: bird wea: woman Sacagawea= bird woman that's in Hidatsa and it also means the same in Shoshoni
bird woman
No. Sacagawea was a Shoreline Indian. Her name mean 'Bird Woman'. But her Shoreline name was Boinaiv.
BEcause Sacajawea was named after a bird and she was very importanat to our loundray
I have a friend, he is part Native American, and is very influenced by his culture. He speaks many Native American languages. He said that it is spelled Sacajawea, (or Sacagawea, either is acceptable) and most people pronounce it that way. But the correct way to pronounce it sounds like sakakawea, but again it is not spelled like that.
Her Soshone name was Boinaiv (it means Grass Maiden), but when she was captured by the Hidatsa they called her Sacagawea (it means Bird Woman)
If her name was spelled "Sacajawea" the word might be Shoshoni, meaning "boat launcher." However, if it's spelled Sacagawea, the name would be Hidatsa and translate as "Bird Woman." The journal evidence from Lewis and Clark appears as to support a Hidatsa derivation.
Sacagawea is called Birdwomen the Hidatsa word for bird is "sacaga" and the Hidatsa word for women is "wea!"
Sacagawea
The name Sacagawea means "bird woman" in Hidatsa, a Native American language. Sacagawea was a Lemhi Shoshone woman who helped the Lewis and Clark expedition in their exploration of the Western United States in the early 19th century.
Sacagawea
Native Americans did not have last names. We were only given last names when European contacts forced them onto us-so they were Anglicized names such as "John" and "Williams". Sacagawea did not have a last name.
