20260923-0 Hän 2010-01-01 2026-01-26 1950-05-09 HAA 2012-06-27 2011-10-06 Hän Hän (alternatively spelled as Haen) is a Northern Athabaskan language spoken by the Hän Hwëch'in (translated to people who live along the river, sometimes anglicized as Hankutchin). Hän is spoken and supported by the Hän nation across localized communities who have lived in what is today called the Upper Yukon region; the village of Eagle, Alaska, in the United States; the town of Dawson City, Yukon Territory, in Canada; as well as Fairbanks and Tanacross in Alaska. It is most closely related to Gwich'in and Upper Tanana. Edward Sapir originally constructed the term Na-Dene to refer to a combined family of Athabaskan, Tlingit, and Haida (the existence of the Eyak language was not known to him at the time). However, Haida is now generally considered a language isolate. haa haa HAA false HAA 1950-05-09 HAA
