Description:

The modifier 'azós' refers to the colour blue. Colour words in Common show local variation in the range of meaning, but the High Common referent for 'azós' is essentially the same as the English colour 'blue'. The word comes from Old Common. This pseudo-etymology, if any, is not known, but it resebles the words 'zoa', 'sky', and 'zora', 'sea', and also bears a resemblance to the Spanish word 'azul' - Davidson is known to have spoken fluent Spanish, so that's a possible influence.

The metaphorical implications of 'azós' are somewhat different than in English. Saying that someone or something is 'azós' doesn't means that they are sad, or raunchy. The connotation of 'azós' is Common is calm and peaceful.

The term for 'azósyn' means 'the blue one' as a noun, or 'to make blue' as a verb.
