Answer
It really depends....actually Sioux is not a language. Siouan is the language spoke by the Sioux nation. Each tribe of the Sioux nation speaks a different variation of the language. There is many tribes among the Sioux, the Sioux ranged from the plains all the way up and down the East coast. It should also be noted that most languages used by Native American tribes deals with direct nouns, and a limited number of verbs and as such Christian / European names do not directly translate to native languages.

Sioux is not the name of a tribe - it refers to a large number of related tribes speaking dialects of the same language. The westernmost Sioux were the Lakotas or Tetons, made up of the Oglala, Minneconjou, Two Kettle, No Bow, Hunkpapa and Blackfoot Sioux tribes.
Clearly they each had their own distinct relationships, as did the central and eastern Sioux tribes.
You need to be more specific.

Yes the aborginals of the Sioux nation did and most still do. Sioux is a French word given to encompass the Lakota, Nakota, and Dakota tribes. I believe the languages for each tribe are slightly different, but the average age of a 'Sioux' speaking person is 64 or 65. Less and less young ones are learning the language.

According to the South Dakota Tourism Bureau, South Dakota comes from the Siouan language of Sioux tribe and it means allies. There are three dialects of the language: Nakota, Dakota, and Lakota.

Almost. The Assiniboine (also called Hohe) are a separate and independent tribe living in parts of North Dakota, Montana, Alberta and Saskatchwan. They call themselves Nakota or Nakoda, giving a clue to their origins; they separated from the Yanktonai Dakotas in the 16th century, so they were originally part of the Sioux family of tribes.
Their language is classed as Siouan, but it is not the same as the language of the Lakotas and other Sioux groups:
English................Assiniboine......................Lakota
sun.....................ompawee'.......................anpetuwi
day.....................ompaitoo........................anpetu
friend...................codah.............................kola
small bird..............zit'kahnah.......................zitkala
one......................washeenah......................wanchi
Although classed as "Siouan" in regard to their language they are not included with the Sioux tribes, so the term Assiniboine Sioux is incorrect.
Similarly, the Crows separated at an early date from the Hidatsas and the Arikaras split away from the Pawnees; the Crows are not Hidatsas and the Arikaras are not Pawnees, despite the very close relationships in language.

In Sioux, "Sacred One" can be translated to "Wíiyukta" or "Wíiyukta Wíiyu." The term reflects a deep spiritual significance, often connected to respect and reverence in Lakota and Dakota cultures. It's important to note that Sioux is a broad term encompassing various dialects, so the exact phrasing might vary slightly depending on the specific Sioux language being referenced.
