chʼosh chʼééh digháhii = snail in English
The Navajo “chʼosh chʼééh digháhii” can be literally translated as “a bug that in vain starts to go along slowly”.
ch’osh = bug
ch’ééh = in vain
dighááh = it starts to go along slowly
-ii = nominaliser
It is worth to mention that “ch’ééh digháhii” means “turtle” so “chʼosh chʼééh digháhii” can be also translated as “bug turtle”.
