The
Miwok or
Miwokan languages (; Miwok: ), also known as
Moquelumnan, are a group of endangered languages spoken in central California in the
Sierra Nevada. There are a few dozen speakers of the three Sierra Miwok languages, and in 1994 there were two speakers of Lake Miwok. The best attested language is
Southern Sierra Miwok, from which we get the name
Yosemite.
