The IowaOtoLanguage is a ChiwereLanguage of the UnitedStates. SIL code: IOW. ISO 639-2: sio. Population: Ethnic population of 2,400, including 1,000 Iowa, 1,400 Oto (1986 SIL). Last fluent speakers of Iowa and Oto died the end of 1996. There are others who have some degree of knowledge of the language (1997 Jimm G. GoodTracks). Region: North central Oklahoma and Iowa Reservation, northeast Kansas. Dialects: IOWA (BAXOJE, IOWAY), OTO (JIWERE, OTOE, JIWELE, CHIWERE), NIUTAJI (NYUT'CHI, MISSOURI, MISSOURIA). Comments: Bilingualism in English. Iowa and Oto are effectively a single language, with some family variations cross-cutting the tribal affiliations. Speakers believe certain minor differences of pronunciation and vocabulary reflect original tribal dialect distinctions (J. E. Koontz 1996). Missouri dialect has been extinct for many years. Extinct.(extract from http://www.ethnologue.com/)
