Chíchelh means ‘high up’‘, ‘on top’, or ‘above’. Chíchelh Siyám is often used for ‘the Lord’, literally ‘respected leader above‘.
Pronunciation
Chíchelh sounds like this: CHEE-chush, except instead of a ‘sh‘ at the end you say the Halq’eméylem hissy-l (lh). This is like a regular l, but with more friction and no vibration in the throat.
