I tried to look at the parts of the word to see if I could guess:
szó – word
kimond – “say out”? 🙂
ó – makes it an adjective, or an attribute or something?
So, if someone “says the word out,” I would guess they’re telling it like it is.
It’s not so easy to do this with every word, but it was fun when this one worked out.
Wonderful, Bastette – great job! 🙂
Indeed, “ó” makes an adjective in this case.
Great approach!
Best, Juli
