            The Cheyenne language is an American Indian language of the Algonquian family. Cheyennes lived in the Great Plains, but later they migrated to Oklahoma and southeastern Montana.

Written literature in Cheyenne is scarce.

Cheyenne is an
agglutinative language. The first person plural has two forms, one including and one excluding the listener, and there is a variant of the third person referring to a non-present person. Its spelling, based on a 14-character Latin alphabet, gives only an approximate information about pronunciation, which includes several pitches.
