Lexember 2020: Dec 1
Today's first #Lexember2020 word is in Rílin (see more about it here http://aeniith.com/rili/language.html).
Dec 1 : íha [ˈiha], [v tr/intr] : [1] forgive, pardon; accept, understand; [2] know, acknowledge, recognize; [3] bring attention to, point out, remark on; [4] notice, realize
Etymology: Possibly from iŵ- [iɸ] 'take in, accept' and ja 'know'
Example: Íhazim kasa tañ lönenet naba ŵedínla
íha -z -im kasa tañ lön -en-et naba ŵedí-n-la
forgive-pst.prf-1s already dist woman-pl-abs whatever wrongdoing-pl-instr "I have already forgiven those women for any wrongdoing” ---
Additional related words as an end-of-day bonus (I’m waiting for my cheese milk to simmer): Íphua [iˈɸua] : “accept, take in, receive; adopt (a child, etc.)”
íphatra [iˈɸatɾa] : “an act of forgiveness or grace”
íhané [iˈhane] : “take and return, exchange”
There also ípha “show, display, introduce, spread out” but I think this is a diff. etymology. Might be from í- “look, watch” and maybe pha “air”, original meaning to wave or spread the hands through the air? Not sure.
