A member of an Athapaskan Indigenous people of northern Canada, or the language they speak.
From the Athapaskan language family, the name possibly derives from an Indigenous term or descriptor. The Dogrib people have inhabited the Northwest Territories for centuries, and their language remains spoken today.
The Dogrib (Tłı̨chǫ) people have one of the most remarkable linguistic situations in North America—they've successfully maintained their language while most Indigenous languages have nearly disappeared, with immersion schools ensuring new generations speak it fluently.
