-á'eh   vta. generously give to s.o., grace s.o., thank you. This word is rich in meaning. It refers to meeting a real need of another, being generous and thoughtful to meet that need, for example, bringing a load of wood for someone when their wood is almost gone and it is cold weather, or giving that person a warm blanket on a cold day. The action produces a sense of gratefulness in the recipient. In verbs where the second person acts on the first person verbs, this has come to be the "traditional" Cheyenne way of expressing thanks--that is, the speaker is telling the hearer that they have met a real need. The commonly used word "hahoo" for 'thank you' is considered an inter-tribal word, not the "real" Cheyenne way of saying thank you. Some speakers point out that hahóo is said for relatively trivial things like thanking someone for passing you the salt at a meal. Nea'eše has tradionally be used for deeper thanks. But many speakers are using nea'eše instead of hahóo, as thanks for all situations. Né-á'eše! Thank you! Né-á'ėšéme. Thank you (said to more than one person). (another recording) Né-á'ėšemeno.
