More winter weather vocabulary today.
oléla /oˈleː.la/ gloves
This is an eccentric reduplication starting from ol hand. A few pieces of paired clothing get not entirely predictable forms like this.
Samma vë oléla në vurël no?
fur ATTR gloves TOP where be.pfv
Where are the wool gloves?
Even though I've taken up weaving as a rage-absorbing hobby during The Covidities, and have added weaving vocabulary to Kílta, I hadn't yet committed to a word for wool. The polysemy I picked, from the already existing samma fur, is a common one. Two words settled with one example sentence.
