son : nẽno
Base Function: Noun, adjective
Definition:

Shape: /ˈnẽ.no/

Etymology:
  • Sensory etymology (clean and defensible)

    nẽno derives from a continuous nasal base associated with lineage and transmission.
    Initial nasalization indicates bodily origin, while the final vowel /o/ marks presence and autonomy in the world.

  • n–n → continuity, lineage, generational echo

  • initial nasal vowel → corporal origin, bond

  • -o final → presence in the world, entity already constituted

The sonic gesture of nẽno is that of something that comes from within and remains attached, but already exists in itself.
It is not “small” (ȳce), it is not “future” (chā). It is a living result.

Synonyms:

  • = daughter
  • = sons
  • = daughters
  • = branch
