      lol … I’m Indigenous Canadian and I speak my language Ojibway/Cree

      This made me realize that the modern things we named with our old language sounds like what you describe

      Aircraft -> kah-mee-nah-mee-kook … ‘the thing that flies’

      Helicopter -> kah-kee-noo-kah-wah-nas-kee-pee-nik … ‘the thing that turns fast’
