I believe the word you're looking for is quimichin.  I believe it
would be pronouced "kee-MEE-cheen," with capitalization
indicating the stressed syllable.

Interestingly, this word is also used as a diminutive, so,
based upon context, one might translate it as "small" or
"little."

Hope this helps.
