So basically "Indians from the other side of the water"? That's pretty cool. —Aryamanarora (मुझसे बात करो) 22:37, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, Navajo is extremely descriptive and logical. There are very few true nouns (almost all are single syllables, such as tó (“water”)), so most nouns are created by nominalizing verbs or phrases. Bitsįʼ yishtłizhii is usually translated as Indian, but literally it means "the one whose skin is brown". —Stephen (Talk) 00:22, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
- I can see that - it's pretty well planned. Good to see it has coverage on Wiktionary. —Aryamanarora (मुझसे बात करो) 02:04, 1 March 2016 (UTC)
