The word for redemption, for example, is (latinized) is-kup-lyenei, which literally means 'out of/from--buy--state/act of,' or the state of having been bought.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04730559977449669957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8899091925608643176.post-40355091895437603622013-10-02T09:55:04.381-07:002013-10-02T09:55:04.381-07:00Greg, you'll have to tell me how Russian funct...Greg, you'll have to tell me how Russian functions!
