Nootka/Nootkan
Noun (slang)
A reclaimed slang term used between Native/Indigenous people as a friendly way of referring to one another, similar to how some communities reclaim words as terms of solidarity and familiarity.
The word “Nootka” comes from the colonial name historically applied to the Nuu-chah-nulth people. According to a widely shared Nuu-chah-nulth account, European explorers misunderstood the word “Nootka’is,” which was being called out to direct a ship away from a reef, and mistakenly believed it was the name of the people.
This slang reclaims that colonial label and gives it a new meaning: a Native friend, relative, or fellow Indigenous person.

Something you say when you stub your toe in front of a group of two year olds and words like *shit* or *fuck* are out of the question. Also a mild reference to Oompa Loompas, because who doesn't love orange midgets?

Peter: Noonka Poonka!
Little Kids: Noooo sillly! It's OOMPA LOOMPA! *erupts in a fit of giggles*
*Peter collapses in pain*
