Lakota has no noun meaning "trust", the idea is expressed by various verbs with different shades of meaning:

  • wachinyekiyA is to trust one's own
  • iwachinyAn is to trust someone else to do something
  • wachinyAn is to have confidence or trust in something or somebody
  • wachinkichiyA is to trust or depend on each other

The noun wowachinye means someone or something that can be trusted.

In all cases the superscript n is used to indicate that the previous vowel is nasalised, much like French.
