Anrish

Etymology

From Middle Anrish seál, from Old Irish scál ("giant, hero")

Pronunciation

(Anrish) IPA: /seːa̯l/

Noun

séal (runic:‧ᛞᛆᛁᛚ‧)

1. A title and social role adopted by an adult in Anrish society; (approximately) a non-binary person

Usage notes

The Anrish do not assign gender based on biological sex, but rather the ternary role deliberately adopted by a member of society at their coming of age. Thus, the Anrish concept of séal does not strictly refer to gender non-conforming people as does the term "non-binary" in other societies.
