Silk

[edit]

Is the Navajo term for silk similar? 71.66.97.228 07:17, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

No. Corn silk is naadą́ą́ʼ bitsiighaʼ. Silk cloth is naakʼaʼatʼą́hí disǫsígíí. —Stephen (Talk) 07:36, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Well, I guess I was thinking of the silk filament, which is more spiderweb-like, rather than silk cloth. 71.66.97.228 07:46, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

No, nothing to do with spiders. —Stephen (Talk) 07:54, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
