anālmañen
Used as the first argument in a PA clause, a feeling of social connection, generally arising from a shared event. The shared event in question can be anything from being stuck in a snowstorm together to working together for a common goal.
il pa anālmañen sāim il teteñ jalūhi il ñi ankiēnarrāni tiēlen;
They were feeling connected when they helped each other during the earthquake.
I’d like to see the etymology of this word.
(Also, couple typos: from shared event > from a shared event; shared even in > shared event in.)
Fixed the typos.
I don’t have an etymology, but -ālm- is the stem for ‘across, crossing, ford’, and -añen has a connotation of ‘coming together, unity’. How’s that?
I don’t have an etymology, but…
No, no: That is the etymology. Thank you! 🙂
