Coyote is an aboriginal word. The Cree elders pronounce it ‘coy o tay’ with the accent on the final syllable.

We actually borrowed it from Spanish after they borrowed it from the Native Americans living in central America, so it’d be a loan word for the Cree, too, either from transmission through various Amerind language groups or just taken directly from English/Spanish.
