OBS

In South Slavey, "cho" is a suffix meaning "big." In accordance with the rules of the language, a suffix does not comprise a word on its own and must be compounded with another word to be grammatically correct. While the single-word spelling of Dehcho is now understood to be correct, the alternative spelling continues to be popular.
