Munsee es una lengua en vías de extinción del subgrupo Algonquino Oriental, sendo una de las dos lenguas de los Lenape. Es muy cerca de la extinta Unami, la otra idioma Lenape. El Munsee fue antiguamente hablado por nativos en la actual Ciudad de Nueva York y las áreas vecinas, más precisamente Manhattan, Staten Island, el sul del valle del Río Hudson, el oeste de Long Island, el norte de Nueva Jersey, y el nordeste de Pensilvania.
