Interior Salish languages
The Interior Salish languages are one of the two main branches of the Salishan language family, the other being Coast Salish. It can be further divided into Northern and Southern subbranches.
These languages are spoken by the Interior Salish peoples. The first Interior Salish people encountered by American explorers were the Bitterroot Salish (seliš).
Languages with no living native speakers are marked with an obelisk, †.
The Southern Interior Salish languages share many common phonemic values but are separated by both vowel and consonant shifts (for example k k̓ x > č č' š).
Many speakers and students of these languages live near the city of Spokane and for the past three years have gathered at the Celebrating Salish Conference which is hosted by the Kalispel Tribe at the Northern Quest Resort & Casino.
