There are three dialectes for the people typically referred to as Sioux. Dakota, Lakota, and Nakota. There is more than one word for dog. Two terms the Dakota use are cunka or cunkpana. The 'c' sounds like 'ch'.

∙ 9y agoDog in Navajo is: łééchąąʼí
It is hard for English speakers.
The marks above the ee makes it high tone, not stress. Navajo is a tonal language.
e is said as in "met". Two ee make is held longer.
"a" is said as in "father" but with the mark under it it is nasalized and is a bit like "an" in the French word "dans" but held longer.
The mark after the aa is a glottal stop like in uh'oh.
The i is said as in "bit".
The ł is not in English, it does occur in Welsh. It is a unvoiced aspirated L sound.
The word means "pet/domestic animal + excrement + the one" (perhaps reflecting the fact that dogs sometimes roll in or eat or lick feces)

What does the Sioux word for Dakota mean?
Sioux in french means 'enemy' and this is why the Sioux people actually went by Dakota or Lakota.===========================================================Answer: The Ojibwe term naadawesi means a large snake or an enemy and was applied at an early date to the Ojibwe's inveterate enemies the Sioux tribes. The plural form is naadawesiwag (snakes).French explorers had trouble (as always) with the Ojibwe word and shortened it to just "siw", which they spelled Sioux in French - it is therefore definitely not a French word but a short form of an Ojibwe word.Sioux means absolutely nothing in any of the Siouan languages, since it is not a Siouan word, but Ojibwe. A very large number of modern tribal names are incorrect in exactly the same way (mainly as the result of ignorant white people misunderstanding native languages).
