"Algonquian" is a language group, not a tribe of Indians, although many Indian tribes speak one of the algonquian dialects.

There are 6800 known languages spoken in the 191 countries of the world. Fewer than 1,000 have writing systems (the others are only spoken) and currently over 260 are represented by on-line dictionaries.
