Quiripi is the name of a Native American language of the Algonquian language family. It was spoken by the Quinnipiack tribe of south-central Connecticut. No longer spoken, it is documented in Puritan religious materials from the seventeenth century.
A Quiripi word which remains to the present-day is the tribe's name of Quinnipiack. It is believed this word means either "long water river" or "long water country".
