The Chickasaw language (Chikashshanompa’ IPA [tʃikaʃːanompaʔ]) is a Native American language of the Muskogean family. It is agglutinative and follows the pattern of subject–object–verb. The language is closely related to though perhaps not entirely mutually intelligible with Choctaw. It is spoken by the Chickasaw tribe now residing in Southeast Oklahoma centered on Ada.
