Yes, in Lakota men and women speak differently. My mom used to laugh at women (usually non-Lakota) who would speak like men.

She speaks Dakota. I'm pretty sure that includes Nakota speakers as well.

Yes. The difference between the dialects of Lakota, Nakota & Dakota is that the L's in Lakota are replaced by N's and D's in their respective dialects.
