Lifashian

Etymology

A nominalized usage of Proto-Indo-European *h₁su- "good", as in the Lifashian prefix suˤ- "good" and the adjective suˤás "good".

Pronunciation

Noun

su f, rarely m (undeclinable, defective)

  1. kindness, goodness
    su tarpen nósso esti.
    Kindness is what we need.

Usage notes

This noun is only ever used in the nominative singular; all other forms are expressed using the synonym sutá instead.

It is most commonly used as feminine, likely due to the -tá suffix in the synonym. Masculine concord is sometimes found in older poetry, as well as in Central Inland dialects (areas of Bádwer, Leninsyahr, Gelehafnené, Kalénisaray).
