Since today is Chinese New Year, I figured I'd make today's Navajo Word of the Day appropriate for the occasion. Today's Navajo Word of the Day is "Ná'áshó̜'iitsoh," which means "Dragon." To use it in a sentence, you can say, "Baa Hózhó̜o̜go Nináhá̜hígíí Ná'áshó̜'iitsoh Wolyéii," which means, "The Year of the Dragon." The breakdown: Baa Hózhó̜o̜go: Being happy about it Nináhá̜hígíí: the repetitive year Ná'áshó̜'iitsoh: Dragon Wolyéii: the one that it is called this If you're Chinese,or an Asian person that recognizes and honors the Chinese calendar, "Happy New Year!" :-D
