Lia
lia
- (n.) girl
Male fineli ia i ipe lia.
“You’re gonna lose that girl.”
Notes: One of my all-time favorite Beatles songs! If you’re unfamiliar, give it a listen.
This is one of those words I thought I’d done. After all, it’s pretty basic, and a foma. The iku’s a little funny. It incorporates li, but it’s kind of built off of part of live, the word for “coyote”. It’s done so it looks human (the iku), but beyond that, I can’t say why it looks the way it does. An old one, though.
