Actually it can be frustrating as I just checked the list of words for No  on 
that site and it looks like someone mined our online Lenape dictionary 
(_www.talk-lenape.org_ (http://www.talk-lenape.org) ) and submitted a  number of 
words that have No or Not plus some verb form with it, but without  giving the 
full meaning.  For example:
 
Lenape (Delaware United  States)            Mahchikwi                [it is 
no good]
Lenape (Delaware United  States)            Ku  ntakohchi          [I am not  
cold]
Lenape (Delaware United  States)             Okeksene                 [he 
wears no socks]
