Dr Andrew Taylor Still, MD, DO, founder of osteopathy was so well versed in the language of Shawnee tribe that he would think in that language as well.

It was known that whenever students asked him difficult questions that required thoughtful answers, he would throw his head back, squint his eyes and then answer in Shawnee language. Once he finished speaking then he would translate it to English for his students.
