Some varieties of this language exhibit a phenomenon called “Ouisme” (“oo-EEZ-muh”). The St. Marys Bay variety of this language unusually uses the simple past in spoken conversation. Michif is a combination of this language with Cree, and many Ojibwe and Cree loan-words (10[1])are found (-5[1])in the variety of this language spoken by the Métis people.
