4th Lexember Word
wakkumárpi [ʋäkːʊˈmäˑɾpɪ̆], nominalisation: “rainstorm“
This word refers to a storm that is characterised by heavy rainfall. Thunder, lightning and strong winds may also be involved here, but rain is what the speaker is focussing on.
Morphologically speaking, this word is a transparent nominalisation of the sentence wakkú már: “it’s raining a lot“ (literally “the rain is violent“), and still behaves somewhat verbally in some circumstances.
No example for this one either.
