Today's Navajo Word of the Day is: 2012. To say this in Navajo, you say "Naakidi mííl yázhí dóó bi'aan naakits'áadah." To use it in a sentence, you would say, "Naakidi mííl yázhí dóó bi'aan naakits'áadahgóó yihah," which means, "The year is 2012." The breakdown: Naakidi: Two of them Mííl (millin) yázhí (little one): thousand Dóó: and Bi'aan: over it Naakits'áadahgóó: twelve (-góó is hard to describe) Yihah: the year You can also say, "Naakidi mííl yázhí dóó bi'aan naakits'áadahgóó yoołkááł." Yoołkááł means "day" but it means the sentiment, "It is 2012."
