Which language was spoken on the queen charlotte islands?

The Queen Charlotte Islands, now known as Haida Gwaii, were inhabited by the Haida people. They spoke Haida, a language isolate, meaning it is not related to any other known language family.

It's important to note that there are two distinct dialects of Haida:

* Haida (also known as Skidegate Haida): This is the more widely spoken dialect and was historically spoken on the southern islands of Haida Gwaii.

* X̱aat Kíl (also known as Masset Haida): This dialect was spoken on the northern islands of Haida Gwaii.

Both dialects are considered critically endangered, with only a small number of fluent speakers remaining.
