Sioux in french means 'enemy' and this is why the Sioux people actually went by Dakota or Lakota.===========================================================Answer: The Ojibwe term naadawesi means a large snake or an enemy and was applied at an early date to the Ojibwe's inveterate enemies the Sioux tribes. The plural form is naadawesiwag (snakes).French explorers had trouble (as always) with the Ojibwe word and shortened it to just "siw", which they spelled Sioux in French - it is therefore definitely not a French word but a short form of an Ojibwe word.Sioux means absolutely nothing in any of the Siouan languages, since it is not a Siouan word, but Ojibwe. A very large number of modern tribal names are incorrect in exactly the same way (mainly as the result of ignorant white people misunderstanding native languages).
