Chippewa) [both Native Americans]. The name Saginaw is believed to mean "
where the Sauk were" in the Ojibwe language)
(b) Saginaw Gears (IHL)

(f) For begrudgingly, see begrudge (vt):
"to give or concede reluctantly or with displeasure "
(g) The report states, "The feeling is more begrudging for the workers
inside the company. One, who called the Chinese "commies," complained to a
union official that the U.S. flag and a P.O.W.-M.I.A. memorial flag were
taken down when Chinese officials visited recently."
Ask Taiwanese: The same sometimes happens in Taiwan.
