TY - JOUR TI - ‘Jail’ in Diné bizaad AU - de la Fuente, José Andrés Alonso TI - ‘Jail’ in Diné bizaad AB - It is argued that certain words for jail in Diné bizaad (Navajo)„ e.g. ’awáalya and wáalya, come from Spanish. Although it has been long suspected that this word is a loanword, all the suggestions so far presented in the literature remain unconvincing on phonological grounds.
