What native language Denali translate?

Denali is a name that is not translated from a specific native language.

Here's the breakdown:

* Denali is the Athabascan name for the mountain formerly known as Mount McKinley. It means "the high one" or "the great one".

* The name Mount McKinley was given by William Henry Seward, the Secretary of State, in honor of William McKinley, who was a candidate for President of the United States at the time.

* The name Denali was officially recognized by the United States Board on Geographic Names in 2015.

So, while Denali has origins in the Athabascan language, it's not a translation of a specific phrase or word. It's a direct name given to the mountain by the Athabascan people.
