Kalasha

Etymology

From Proto-Dardic [Term?], from Sanskrit ???? (m??sa), from Proto-Indo-Aryan *m?msás, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *m?msás, from Proto-Indo-European *m?mso-.

Noun

mos

  1. meat

Latin

Etymology

Root noun interpreted as s-stem noun of uncertain origin. Generally believed to derive from Proto-Indo-European *m?-, *m?- (“to intend/to be intent upon, to be of strong will”), whence Ancient Greek ??????? (maíomai, “to strive”) and perhaps Ancient Greek ????? (Moûsa, “Muse”), and also English mood. It has been conjectured that some senses of m?s, such as those having to do with "manner" and "way", may indicate a possible derivation from Proto-Indo-European *med- (“to measure”), compare and contrast modus; if that is true, it would seem to suggest an example of combined etymology or etymologic conflation.

Usage notes
  • Catalan cardinal numbers may be used as masculine or feminine adjectives, except un/una (“1”), dos/dues (“2”), cents/centes (“100s”) and its compounds. When used as nouns, Catalan cardinal numbers are treated as masculine singular nouns in most contexts, but in expressions involving time such as la una i trenta (1:30) or les dues (two o'clock), they are feminine because the feminine noun hora has been elided.
