"indian name for maze or is it maze ???"?

Answer 1

Maize is called Makai In Hindi and Maka (not Makka) in Marathi

It is also called Bhutta in Hindi and Gujrathi - Bhutta is maize along with knurl

Answer 2

The word maize comes from the Spanish interpretation of the Arawak word for the plant known as field corn in the Americas.  Maize is used today to distinguish between field corn, the grain that grows on cobs, and the generic European term corn which indicates any of several cereal grains raised in pre-Colombian Europe, e.g., barley, rye or oats.

Other tribal groups probably had different names for the plant, but maize is the one that stuck.

Answer 3

corn

Answer 4

Maize (Zea mays L. ssp.) is a cereal grain that was domesticated in Mesoamerica and then spread throughout the American continents.  The term maíze derives from the Spanish form of the Arawak Native American term for the plant. However, it is commonly called corn in the United States. Corn is a shortened form of "Indian corn".

Answer 8

I think it is spelled maize, and I'm not sure if there is another word for it.

Answer 9

Maize, not maze.  Maze is a thing you wander around in.  Maize is what you eat so you don't starve while you're wandering.

Various indian tribes called maize different things.  Remember that there were thousands of distinct tribes in the americas, and they each had their own languages.

For example, the Lakota called corn "Nadaa."  The Blackfoot called it "aohpiikiinaatts."

The word "Maize" is actually from the Spanish word "Mai'z," which arose from the Arawak word "mahiz."

I think everyone's confused as to what you're asking. So you're asking what the Indian name is for maze, meaning a labyrinth, since corn is maize. So I'm also guessing you mean the Native American Indian, not India Indian...too bad I don't know the answer, sorry.
