Hogan is the only word I know of that is from Navajo and now used in English. It is a traditional Navajo home. In Navajo it is: hooghanThere are quite a few place names in New Mexico and Arizona that come from Navajo.
The first recorded contact between the Spanish and the Navajo was in 1583 near Mt Taylor. The Navajo name for the Spanish is Nakai, meaning "one who wanders around". The Spanish claimed but never really controlled the Navajo territory so there was not a lot of direct contact except in towns and Pueblos in what is now New Mexico. The Spanish had a large demand for Native American slaves. Navajo were captured by the Spanish or by other tribes and sold in markets in Santa Fe. Slaves were sent as far south as the silver mines in Mexico. Navajo women were in demand as weavers as well. By the late 1700s it is estimated that 66% of all Navajo had some family member who was a slave. The Navajo aided in the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 which killed 400 Spaniards. They gave shelter in 1692-3 to some of the Pueblo people when the Spanish returned. Quite a few Navajo clans come from this period of mixing.

The word Navajo does not come from Spanish. The Spanish learned it in the middle 1500s when they were asking Pueblo Tewa speakers names of the the different Apache related groups. They were told the Dine' were the "Apache of the wide or river bottom fields". "Navahu'u" is Tewa for "farm fields in a valley". Navajo is how the Spanish then spelled it. The Navajo language is related to other Apache languages about the same as Italian is to Spanish or Portuguese. The word Apache is thought to come from the Zuni language word for "enemy" or "stranger" Some other Apache groups were the Jicarilla ("little basket") and Mescalero ( mescal was a food staple) Apache.
In order to obtain materials for making Navajo pottery you must first learn songs and prayers for removing clay and items for the pottery. these songs are for the dine deties that govern harmony for ones self. with out these songs and prayers you maybe come sick and disablities may occur. the earth and humans must live in harmony and respect must be given. Only people that have pottery and items may show you if you ask them for assistants. Travis Manygoats, Navajo potter

Horse blankets come in a variety of colors, and the variety can often depend on what specific use the blanket has. For a basic turnout blanket (a blanket for outdoor use), you can have a variety of colors from red to blue to even fun patterns such as one with peace signs all over them. (http://www.statelinetack.com/blankets-and-sheets/waterproof-turnout-blankets-and-sheets/2324/) If you are looking for an indoor/inner layer stable blanket, there are fewer patterns, but the color variety is still pretty good with red, black, and blue all possible.
