Word for 'prairie' in Hochunk.

[Henning Garvin]

I forgot some info.  While hoska refers to a clearing, it is also used to
refer to an opening in the clouds, or anything where an opening is letting
light in.  Mooska refers specifically to a clearing on the ground, either a
small clearing in the woods or a large prairie.  Mooska is often used to
talk about thwe western plains, especially by elders talking about the
removal periods.  So maNaN + hoska makes sense in this context.
