Gonplei: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 16:44, 6 September 2020

From English gunplay. Later reanalyzed as being from gon ("fight") +‎ -plei.

IPA^(key): /ˈɡɔnple/

Rhymes: -ɔnple

gonplei

fight, fighting, combat
Yu gonplei ste odon. (Phrasebook Entry)
Your fight is over.
-Indra (The 100, Episode 609)

I figured that words like "gunplay" and "horseplay" were enough to allow the word "play" to generalize as a part of a derivational process. Despite that fact, it hasn't enjoyed as much use as -nes in Trig. -David J. Peterson 17:44, 6 September 2020 (PDT)
