纳瓦霍英语西班牙语NavajoDiné)是美国西南部的一支原住民族,为北美洲地区现存最大的美洲原住民族群,人口估计约有30万人。“纳瓦霍”族名由西班牙人所起,族人则自称为“Diné'”,即纳瓦霍语“人”之意。

纳瓦霍族也拥有现今美国面积最大的印第安保留地,部族政府称为纳瓦霍国,横跨亚利桑那新墨西哥犹他三州,面积7万平方公里。部族政府拥有地方自治权,首府设在亚利桑那州温多罗克(Window Rock)镇。

语言[编辑]

纳瓦霍族群有自己的语言纳瓦霍语,没有文字,只能口口相传,其构成相当复杂,外族人几乎无人能了解。因此,在太平洋战争中曾用于作为密码进行明码呼叫用,以让日本军无法破解美方密码,至二战结束时也没有被破解。
