"-GIZH" meaning in Navajo

See -GIZH in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Root

Etymology: From Proto-Athabaskan *ɢəž (“to act with a stick, to be forked”). Cognate root found in Ahtna delggez (“it is forked”), gges (“skewer”). Found in Navajo in a number of disparate themes related to cutting, to forked or gapped shape, to seeping/spreading, and to acting with a stick or gestures. Also found in a base related to flashing, probably a corruption of the root -GĘZH, of similar meaning (see -KĘ́Ę́Z/-KÉÉZ for a similar situation).
