asía

Radestrian

Etymology

From Middle Radestrian assíra, from Old Radestrian assijor, inherited from Proto-Radic *ahsiɣor, from *ahsēr (“first”) + *-ɣor, equivalent to asíș + -ía.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /aˈsiːa/
• Rhyme: -iːa ⁽¹⁷⁾
• Syllabification: a–sí–a

Noun

asía inan (genitive singular asiesk, nominative plural asiere, relational adjective asieș)

1. (countable, in-world) The first day of the thirteenth Laefevo-Radestrian month, dzestasans, equivalent to the Gregorian day of March 15, or March 14 on leap years.

Usage notes

• Thirteenth-month-specific words for days of the week must still be used with the month, i.e. asía dzestaseng; asía on its own cannot be used to mean March 15/14.
