The correct spelling is "Lewis and Clark," referring to Meriwether Lewis and William Clark who led the famous Lewis and Clark Expedition in the early 19th century.
Lewis and Clark used a combination of pantomime, sign language, and trading goods to communicate with the Native American tribes they encountered during their expedition. They also relied on the help of a few translators, such as Sacagawea, who served as an interpreter between the expedition and the Shoshone tribe.
One of the problems that Lewis and Clark had was the difficulty in understanding natives and traders along the way. After meeting up with Toussaint Charbonneau and Sacajawea, Toussaint was able to bargain with other traders in French and Sacajawea could speak Hidatsa and Shoshone. Without them, Lewis and Clark could only communicate in English.
Meriwether Lewis (1774-1809) and William Clark were the explorers of the Louisiana Territory and US Northwest from 1804 to 1806.
