26th Lexember Word

kelsin /ke̞lsin/, noun: “snowflake”

"You’re all individuals!"

"We’re all individuals!"

"I’m not!"

So, today’s Boxing Day, and since I’m lucky enough that the Netherlands also celebrate that one, I get to be lazy as one is supposed to be on that day, and just make a derivation from yesterday’s word :P.

Kelsin simply means “snowflake”. That’s it. Nothing special :). In terms of formation, it’s also quite simply the diminutive form of yesterday’s keli. The diminutive, in Moten, is often used to mark a unit or small quantity of something, and this is what it does here :).

Questions?
