has gloss	eng: Piscataway is an extinct Algonquian language formerly spoken on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay, in present-day Maryland, United States. Piscataway, also known as Conoy (from the Iroquois name for the tribe), is considered a dialect of Nanticoke. This designation is based on the scant evidence available for Piscataway. The Doeg tribe of Northern Virginia are also thought to have spoken a form of the same language. These dialects were intermediate between the group of Lenape languages formerly spoken to the north of this area, (in present-day Delaware and New Jersey) and the Powhatan language, formerly spoken to the south, in what is now Tidewater Virginia.
