Àwéspéfíítsìjúnase. “Shape the dough into a disc.”
Today’s entry makes use of two new forms introduced yesterday. The object of this clause is wése “dough, batter”. You may recall, though, that I used wémvale “dough” to specify that the baker needs to have a solid dough. Since the more specific “dough” was established in context of this recipe, moving forward, the less specific wése can be used to refer to the dough.
While I used nýfiite as an intransitive (reflexive) form of fííte “to shape, to form” yesterday, today’s example incorporates the transitive version of that verb.
The new word I created today is júnase “disc”, which is a compound consisting of júno “moon” and áse “flat”.
