loins, waist, hip region

Senses
1. loins, waist, hip region The lower torso region around the waist and hips, encompassing both the literal body part (girding the loins, wearing a belt) and its metonymic extension to procreative power (descendants coming from one's loins). Spanish 'lomos/lomo/cintura' all denote the same anatomical zone. Hindi 'कमर' (waist) and 'कटि' (hip/loin) are synonymous body-part terms used interchangeably. Arabic 'صُلْبِ/صُلْبِهِ' (loin/his loin) and 'حَقْوَيْهِ/أَحْقَاؤُكُمْ' (his hips/your hips) refer to the same region. Korean '허리' (waist) is uniform across all clusters. Swahili 'viuno/kiuno' are plural and singular of the same noun meaning waist/hip. The three clusters are inflectional variants (accusative, genitive, nominative, singular, plural) of one body-part sense across all 8 occurrences.
