What are "Iroquoian languages"?

Iroquoian languages are a family of Indigenous languages spoken primarily in the northeastern United States and parts of Canada. Major languages in this family include Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Cherokee. Iroquoian languages are known for their complex grammatical structures, including polysynthetic features where a single word can express what would be a full sentence in English. These languages hold significant cultural importance, reflecting the traditions, histories, and social organization of the Indigenous communities that speak them. The study of Iroquoian languages provides valuable insights into the linguistic diversity of North America and the cultural heritage of the Iroquois peoples.
