Orekiil #349

Open johnbent opened 1 year ago

johnbent commented 1 year ago

In #319, Lukes mentions "a hang out spot (Orekiil)". Can someone confirm? Orekiil is a place in Palau? Where exactly is it?

ChrisPerrette commented 1 year ago

My mother-in-law says it means the final day or days, apparently used commonly by Palauan Catholics in mourning. Related to the custom called "novena" in English.

we already have orekiolel n.poss.3s. both words seem to be related.

JimGeselbracht commented 1 year ago

I think my original question was from the song Orekil (which is how it should be spelled).  It is n.poss.3s meaning "it's end." The Kerresel dictionary defines it as "orekil a rekil" where rekil comes from merek.  Yoichi Rengiil thought that this was a place name in the Rock Islands on the island of Ngerechol.

I looked up #319 and I only referred to it as a place because that's what it sounds like in the sentence from the song... possibly rendezvous at Orekiil... Double "i"

Rekil, orekiolel, orekil... These are different and relate to completion or conclusion, as in "merek" (mla mo merek) pointed out in this chain.

Orekil/orekiolel: final, finale

orekii: a place not sure and also, past for merereek. Lak monherodech e ko orekii a mechiuaiu. Ngera merereek er a rebai?

Lukes-Imeyuns commented 1 year ago

But wouldn't that be double "r" to show the strong sound?

Orreek Orrekii

Like the sound of "orrekim"
