Lake Waswanipi : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lake Waswanipi
Lake Waswanipi is a lake in south western Quebec, Canada. The name is of Cree origin. ''Waswanipi'' is compound word composed of ''wâswâ-'' (to fish at night using a torch) and ''nipî'' (water), and is usually translated as "light over the water" 〔(Commission de Toponymie du Québec )〕 referring to the traditional night-time fishing method of luring fish to light by using torches. An island in the lake was historically the location of a Cree summer village, also known by the name of Waswanipi. In the 1970s its people were relocated to Waswanipi, a community located at the intersection of route 113 and Waswanipi River. == References ==
