Name origin

Moved these sentences from page to here:

Chilcotin (Tsilhqot'in) meaning for Chilko is Dzelh qox. Dzelh (Snow mountain) Qox (river). Tsilhqot'in means "people of the snow mountain river"

I don't understand what is being said here, and it seems to contradict the previous paragraph about Chilko being Tsilhqot'in for "ochre river" and Chilcotin for "ochre river people". Pfly (talk) 17:59, 17 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
