Ojibwe Ojibwe is a First Nations language spoken in the northern US and south-central Canada. The Ojibwe people refer to themselves as Anishinaabe, and their Ojibwe language is called Anishinaabemowin. ​ There are several varieties of Ojibwe, and each variety is significantly different from the others. Because of this, some people consider Ojibwe to be a group of related languages instead of a single language! ​ Our Ojibwe course was created by Grassroots Indigenous Multimedia in 2009. It features a variety of Ojibwe spoken in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
