e/Conneaut

Information
has gloss	eng: Conneaut is a word of disputed meaning, believed to come from the language of the Seneca tribe of Native Americans. According to local tradition, it may mean either "place of many fish" or "snow water" (referring to Conneaut Lake, notable for its ice in winter). According to the Bureau of American Ethnology, conneaut is most likely a corruption of ga-nen-yot, meaning "standing stone." Still others believe it to be a corruption of gunniate, meaning "it is a long time since they are gone." Maps from the end of the eighteenth century spell the word Conyeayout and Connewaut.
