((lol I'm a lurking huron for now! but registering soon!! I just have to be very quick right now!))
I'm really interested in the languages that were spoken in the lotm movie..what language was the one Hawkeye, Uncas and Chingachgook spoke?? In the book it claims they speak Delaware..or more formally today Lenni Lenape. But on movie reviews and in the script it claims they speak Mohican..does anybody know which one it is? I would be enternally grateful for any help! :) My goal is to learn a bit of the language..(If anyone knows where i could find help with that I would be soo grateful) I already know a bit of other languages like Elvish..lol but i would really like help with this one. thankyou!! :D

Hi, LH6558,

If you click on "Musings" on this site's homepage, then "Even More Mohican Musings," you'll find an essay on "Language in LOTM." If you click on "History," then "Eastern Woodland Indians," you'll find a link to a publisher that has some material on Eastern Woodland languages: http://www.evolpub.com
Here's a link to a publisher here in Central PA specializing in the history of the eastern frontier: http://www.wennawoods.com/
If you click on "Wennawoods Titles" at that site, you'll find they have a book on the Delaware language. If you click on "Historical Essays," you'll find (just keep scrolling down) an essay on the Delaware language. Good luck!

Lakota is a Plains Indian language. It was not used in The Last of the Mohicans.

I thought I remembered reading somewhere that they spoke Lakota. I could be mistakened. I've been wrong before.

they also speak french ^^
if you're looking for a language to learn, thats a good one...
(and prolly more useful in the modern world than mohican or elvish...)

Delaware, if my failing memory is correct.
