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).
解释:美国印第安人,也被称为美洲原住民,是当欧洲人开始在北美定居的时候(或开始生活在那里),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.
尽管很多人认为美国印第安人是同质群体,或一群完全相同的人,他们其实是许多被称作部落的小群体。
The tribes had different languages, customs (or ways of doing things), foods, and cultures.
这些部落有着不同的语言、习俗(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,而另一些部落则非常小。
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,因为很多的部落都被欧洲殖民者给毁灭了。
Today, the U.S. government officially recognizes (or accepts and lists) 563 American Indian tribes.
如今,美国政府正式承认(或认可并列出)563个美国印第安部落。
