Etymology 1[edit]

From the Lakota word thípi (/ˈtʰipi/), which consists of two elements: the verb to dwell, and pi, a pluralising enclitic (a suffix-like ending that marks the subject of the verb as plural), which means "they dwell". Lakota verbs can be used as nouns and this is the case with thípi, which in practice just means "house".

Thank you Stuart.

 

16th and early 17th centuries, Dakota-Lakota speakers lived in the upper Mississippi Region in present-day Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas. Conflicts with Anishnaabe and Cree peoples pushed the Lakota west onto the Great Plains in the mid- to late-17th century.[5]

Dear Stuart,

 

Please teach your sources. I have lived on the plains for 71 years, and we know the science.

 

Thank you Stuart.
