English Equivalent	hello
Gloss	A Lirina greeting
Definition	Hello; greetings; literally "I perceive you" or "I affirm your consciousness." A more culturally accurate English translation would be "I see you." This word contains a diphthong, which adds greater significance to the core concept of conscious awareness. So imagine somebody looking you straight in the eyes and telling you that they see you. The real you. The conscious you that's looking back at them. That is the way these people say "hello."
