Notes:
- If you see the image to the right, this means that my pictures will be temporarily disabled for a month. I'm only allowed a certain amounts of downloads from the PhotoBucket server a month. I can pay to have my bandwidth increased to accomodate, but I like free. So, if you see the pic to the right, the image will be disabled for a month from the date I exceeded my bandwidth. Sorry about that. A million apologies!

English Phrase: Drop It Like It's Hot!
Navajo Phrase: Sidoh Nahaloo Nanine'!
Category: Literal Translation
Note: Unlike Snoop Dogg's phrase, Navajo is very specific in terms of the shape of what is being dropped. Nanine' here means to drop a round or solid object. If an animal or stick-like object was dropped, then the phrase would end with nanit'e'. The word then changes if the object is sheet-like, multiple items, rope-like,etc. It is difficult to translate English slang, without butchering Navajo sentence structure.

English Phrase: Shake It Like A Saltshaker!
Navajo Phrase: Áshiih Bizis Jigháád Nahaloo Nigháád!
Category: Literal Translation
Note: To "shake" here means rattle. It doesn't mean "shake" in the sense of "shaking the hips." For it's poetic quality, it was worded as seen. To really say shake your hips is "nit'aa' nimaz" (roll your butt).
