Best Answer

Blackfoot is a highly complex inflectional language, meaning that words change their form in different combinations and situations.

The Blackfoot word for leaves (plural) is niipistsi, indicating a singular form niipi (leaf). In combination, this changes: omahksiipitsi (big leaves), akaayiipssko (leaves are out).

What is the blackfoot native American translation of the name Two?

I am assuming you mean the Blackfoot peoples of Alberta, Montana and Saskatchewan, not the Blackfoot Sioux who are an unrelated and distinct tribe with a different language. Even some Native Americans do not realise that there is a difference. The Blackfoot word for the number two is natoka, pronounced nahtohka.
