Dialect features
The distinctiveness of North of Superior is reflected in a small number of "grammatical features and substantial lexical features."[2] North of Superior is in the southern group of Ojibwe dialects, but also contains a mixture of Ojibwe northern dialect features.[3] Communities such as Aroland and Long Lac that are in the northern part of the dialect area show more features found in northern dialects.[4]
North of Superior Ojibwe is not included in Ethnologue.[5]
