Pronunciation

(Old) IPA: [ˈa.ez̠.nom]
(Classical) IPA: [aˈeː.nũː]

(Late) IPA: [aˈe.nu]

Noun

aēnun (cyclical; genitive singular aēnī)

  2. life force; from an Aeranid theological perspective, inanimate objects like rocks and trees are more alive than animate "living" things such as people and animals, because they they do not decay from exposure to time
