![]() | A fact from Eel River (Wabash River tributary) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the
Did you know column on 4 August 2004. The text of the entry was as follows:
| ![]() |
The river lay between the Miami and Potawatomi tribes. Which language, if either, does "kenapocomoco" come from?
It is supposed to mean "river of the snake fish". In the Potawatomi language, "river" is sibe, "snake" is mnlto or mjumnito, and "fish" is gegos [1]. In the Miami language, "stream" is siipiiwi [2], and "fish" is kiconessa. [3] I cannot find any more comprehensive online Miami-Illinois dictionaries, though there seem to be several hardcopy sources that I don't have ready access to. Both languages are in the Algonquin family, so playing amateur linguist and hazarding a guess based on phonology would be, umm, hazardous.
