Best Answer

The Navajo do not use the phrase "great spirit" . Although I could give you a literal translation, I think you mean the Navajo name for the monotheistic Christian God. That word is: Diyin Ayóí Átʼéii

God in the Navajo religion, meaning a supernatural being is: Haashch'ééh

A male god is Haashch'ééh biką'. Female is Haashch'ééh ba'áád.

There are many different important deities in Navajo thought and they all have their own names.

The marks above vowels are high tone marks, they change meaning as much as having a different vowel.

The marks under some vowels mean they are nasalized..

The Ch' and t' sounds are glottalized consonants, they are different than regular ch and t sounds. The mark between after the ba in the last word is a consonant called a glottal stop, We have it in uh'oh.

What were the Shawnee beliefs?

The Shawnee language is a Central Algonquian language spoken in parts of central and northeastern Oklahoma by only around 200 Shawnee, making it very endangered. It was originally spoken in Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, and Pennsylvania. It is closely related to the other Algonquian languages Mesquakie-Sauk (Sac and Fox and Kickapoo. The stem for the word Shawnee, shawa, is historically preserved as a word meaning "warm," in reference to the Shawnee weather beings of the sun, and this word was also rooted in the word for "south wind." The Shawnee considered the Delaware Indians as their spiritual and cultural grandfathers, as well as the root for all of the Algonquin tribes. Identical language proves their oral histor
