    What do you need it for? And since it sounds like you are using it to refer to a person, is the person male or female, younger or older than you, a close relative or not?

    (our language is very complex, and yeah, those factors can effect words)

    edit***************

    The literal translation then would be chííl Łáá'íí. But in Navajo, that phrase would be nonsensical. It doesn't have the same meaning in navajo as in English. What you probably want is more like: t'óó hodiilzha'.
