Elements
Word Gloss hasa- “to treat (medically), (help to) cure; to treat kindly, make easy”
A neologism for “medicine” coined by Paul Strack in 2022, a noun form of Q. hasa- “to treat (medically)”, inspired by Tamas Ferencz’s neologism: ᴺQ. hasarëa “medical”. Tamas Ferencz himself used ᴺQ. haswa (< √HATH + ✶-mā) for “medicine”, but I prefer to keep the words for “medical” and “medicine” more aligned.
