What is the ojibwe words for little wolf?

Answer 1

I think it is something like Makeyan. But im not sure if that is spelled right.

==================================================

The Cree word for wolf is mahihkan; this can also be spelled mahikan. The prefix meaning small (of animate objects) is apist- or apis- so a small wolf would be *apismahihkan. This word is only theoretical (hence the *) because a small wolf is a coyote, which has a different translation.

Answer 2

Accodring to The Ojibwe language manual for missionaries, Neeje is the word for friend, and uhgahshe is the word for small (as in little, the other word for little means not a lot of)

So Little friend would probably be uhgahshe neeje.
