Bahasa Navajo

Bahasa Navajo atau bahasa Navaho (Diné bizaad atau Naabeehó bizaad) adalah sebuah bahasa peribumi di Amerika bagian utara dan tepatnya di sebelah barat daya Amerika Syarikat. Bahasa ini terutama dipertuturkan oleh suku bangsa Navajo; penutur bahasa ini berjumlah kurang lebih adalah 175.000 orang penduduk. Bahasa ini termasuk dalam rumpun bahasa Na-Dene.

Bahasa ini pernah digunakan Tentera Darat Amerika Syarikat semasa Perang Dunia Kedua untuk menyulitkan perbualan dan komunikasi sesama askar dalam peperangan kerana tatabahasa ia yang dilihat lebih rumit serta kurang bertulis daripada bahasa Inggeris pada ketika itu, sebilangan penutur jati bahasa ini ditugaskan untuk melaksanakan komunikasi sedemikian.
