Best Answer

In the Natick language spoken by the Massachusetts, Narragansett, Wampanoag and neighbouring tribes, the word for "clothes" is hogkoonkongash or aukookongash, which both derive from acoh, meaning deer skin. -ongash is a plural word ending.

When these tribes first met European explorers they called the unfamiliar garments of cloth maunek.

In Cheyenne, the term for a piece of clothing is hone'oo'o or hone'oonotse.

In Lakota, hayapi is the general terms for clothing; hathanni means old clothes or rags; washapa is dirty clothing; wokoyake means fancy or special clothes.
