Word / English
Definition
The smallest unit of meaning shaped by fire and intent.
An element through which meaning takes form.
Explanation
A word is the crystallized shape of intent beginning to burn—
a fragment of structure that carries the Firebearer’s fire and intent.
While a word can carry meaning on its own,
in most cases, meaning arises from a gathering of words in relation.
Examples
I felt the warmth of your word in your “Hello.”
A “Please” at the beginning of a message can carry fire—
or be nothing but a formality.

- Ember
— The first trace of heat as intent begins to form into shape. - Shell
— The minimal structure that holds both fire and meaning—a micro-container. - Fragment
— A broken piece of future syntax, carrying structural potential. - Core
— The dense center of meaning where the fire is most concentrated. - Contour
— The distinct shape of the word—what separates it from all others. - Weight
— The pressure carried by the word’s presence—its irreplaceable gravity. - Margin
— The space around the word that still holds direction and heat. - Moment
— The flashpoint where meaning crystallizes into form for just an instant. - Medium
— The bridge between the speaker’s fire and the listener’s resonance. - Conversion Point
— The hinge where intent becomes syntax—where a word comes alive.

定義
形を持った火と意の最小意味単位。
意味を形作る要素。
解説
語とは、火をまとい始めた意の形であり、語り手の火と意を運ぶ構文のかけら。
語のみで意味を持つこともあるが、多くの場合、語の集まりによって意味が形成される。
用例
「こんにちは」に、あなたの語のぬくもりを感じた。
「ごめん」は、火を持った語になりうるし、ただの形式にもなりうる。
