Best Answer

I am guessing you mean the English word "I" or "me".

In Blackfoot the first person personal pronoun is expressed in several ways, including nistoa as a separate word. It can also be ni-, n- or nits- as a verb or noun prefix. Most Algonquian languages use various forms of ni-for "I", ki- for "you" and o- for "he".

Examples:

Nitawni = I say

Nitsomani = I am speaking the truth

Notas = my horse

Nina = my father

What is the blackfoot native American translation of the name Two?

I am assuming you mean the Blackfoot peoples of Alberta, Montana and Saskatchewan, not the Blackfoot Sioux who are an unrelated and distinct tribe with a different language. Even some Native Americans do not realise that there is a difference. The Blackfoot word for the number two is natoka, pronounced nahtohka.


How do you say Melena in Blackfoot?

Modern English names can not be translated into any native American language. If you were to meet a modern Canadian Blackfoot and told him your name is Melena, that is what he would call you - it would not be possible for him to "translate" that name into any Blackfoot word.

The Stockbridge tribe was originally the Housatonic branch of the Mahicans, so the language they spoke is Mahican. Blackfoot is also an Algonquian language, but only very distantly related.In Mahican the word for grandfather is òmuxomunIn Blackfoot the word for grandfather is na-ahks'(literally "my grandfather")I guess that by "Fr.
