300+ languages, so there is no single "native american" word for tobacco. In my native Numunu (Comanche/Shoshone) language the generic word for all tobacco is kwi'pu, which literally means "smoke". Our favored tobacco was a twist made by the Arikara people, and it is said that it was very, very strong and could take you to the other side in high doses. I figure that this was likely a rustica strain. Our word for this type of tobacco is "pah'mu". For general smoking pah'mu was not used straight, it was a small portion, maybe 20% total of a blend that was made from osier bark, dried and powdered chokecherries, and whatever else struck a particular person's fancy, with maybe a bit of bear root sprinkled on top of the bowl. After contact and trade with Europeans, ground anise seed and powdered mint leaves were a favored flavoring. Even now I like a good rollie with a bit of anise seed in it. Pretty tasty, almost like dessert
