'''Crow''' ([[endonym|native name]]: {{lang|cro|Apsáalooke}} {{IPA|sio|ə̀ˈpsâːɾòːɡè|}} or {{IPA|sio|ə̀ˈpsâːlòːɡè|}}) is a [[Missouri River Valley|Missouri Valley]] [[Siouan languages|Siouan language]] spoken primarily by the [[Crow Tribe]] in present-day southeastern [[Montana]]. The word {{lang|cro|Apsáalooke}} translates to "Children of the Large Beaked Bird" (from ''apá'' 'beak/nose', ''isáa'' 'big', ''dooká'' 'child'), which was later incorrectly translated into English as 'Crow'.<ref name=LBHC>[http://lib.lbhc.edu/index.php?q=node/128 Little Bighorn College]</ref> It is one of the larger populations of [[Indigenous languages of the Americas|American Indian]] languages with 4,160 speakers according to the 2015 US [[Census]].<ref name="census">{{Cite web |publisher=United States Census Bureau |title=Detailed Languages Spoken at Home and Ability to Speak English for the Population 5 Years and Over: 2009-2013 |url=https://www.census.gov/data/tables/2013/demo/2009-2013-lang-tables.html |access-date=2024-09-20 |website=Census.gov}}</ref>
