Ungawa
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"Ungawa"--chief of the cannibals to Lou Costello in Africa Screams "Tarzan's "ungawa" was strictly a made-up word when it first appeared in the movies. But by chance, it's also Swahili, with a couple of meanings, depending on inflection. "To unite" or "to join" is one translation. It also is a kind of ground grain."--09 Sep 1999, Where did Ungawa come from? | San Diego Reader |
