Explanation: The American Indians, also known as Native Americans, were the first people living in North America when the Europeans began to settle (or begin to live there).
解釋:美國印第安人,也被稱為美洲原住民,是當歐洲人開始在北美定居的時候(或開始生活在那里),最先生活在那的人。
Although many people think about the American Indians as a homogenous group, or a group of all the same kinds of people, they were actually many smaller groups known as tribes.
盡管很多人認為美國印第安人是同質群體,或一群完全相同的人,他們其實是許多被稱作部落的小群體。
The tribes had different languages, customs (or ways of doing things), foods, and cultures.
這些部落有著不同的語言、習俗(或做事的方式)、食物和文化。
Some of them were very large and others were very small.
一些部落非常大,而另一些部落則非常小。
Only a small fraction (or percentage or portion) of the original tribes still exist, because many of them were destroyed by the European settlers.
只有一小部分原始部落依然存在,因為很多的部落都被歐洲殖民者給毀滅了。
Today, the U.S. government officially recognizes (or accepts and lists) 563 American Indian tribes.
如今,美國政府正式承認(或認可并列出)563個美國印第安部落。
