'''Chub'''(''wya:cǫbʼ'', <small>Chub:</small> [[Help:IPA|[ | '''Chub'''(''wya:cǫbʼ'', <small>Chub:</small> [[Help:IPA|[w̯jäːt͡ʃɤp̚]]]), also called '''Wyaa''', is an Ogbami language spoken by the Chub people of the Sleeping Bull Confederacy. The language, and to an extent the people, are sometimes called ''Kachur'', though this is a [[Ñgnw|Gnu]] word that is generally considered offensive by most Chub people. | ||

The Chub people(''wya:cǫbʼ'') and the Gnu people(''ñgnwə'') have historically been(and still are) bitter enemies. The exact reason varies by account: Some say that the Gnu and Chub were originally one people under the Ugwinda culture that inhabited both sides of the Ogbami river, until the Gnu, whose name meant "[people] of the east river bank" in Ugwinda, rebelled and caused the collapse of the unified culture. | |||
