John Newman, a 19th-century American explorer and writer, is not widely known for learning any Native American languages.

Newman's contributions center more on his narratives and accounts of exploration than on language acquisition.

Traders, explorers, artists, mountain men, fur trappers and many others learned at least some words in native languages, as well as the tribal customs and habits. These is entirely natural for individuals alone in a wilderness populated by people with entirely different languages and lifestyles.

Communication is vital in such situations in order to avoid misunderstandings that could be fatal.

Another factor is that many white people could genuinely foresee a time when the native population was either exterminated or "civilised" and their lifestyle would be gone for ever; one of these was the artist and explorer George Catlin, who even in the 1830s could see that the "Wild West" would very soon be gone. He wanted to visit, explore, record languages and collect artifacts in order to preserve some elements of the native cultures.

Traders and trappers lived among the natives for many years at a time and many married native women; it is no surprise that they learned languages and customs (although many never did correctly understand what they learned).
