The South American
people from Buenos Aires, Argentina believe in their own opinion the word 'Navajo' signifies what they already know about the Navajo
people & culture. On the other hand when it comes to its similarity in Spanish, how it's related to the word "Navajo" & Navaja (knife)."
The word "Navajo" makes them think of the
people as "First Nations" when again sounds like "navaja/cuchillo" which is knife but they
don't think it comes from there because there are lots of words that sound similar but aren't the same thing like station or stationary. So for them, (Navajo) really couldn't be the word (knife). They
don't think there's a chance that Navajo Y Navaja aren't related. It sounds like an attempt to establish a connection or source.
