Senses
1. thus, so, in this manner — Adverb of manner indicating 'in this way' or 'in such a manner,' pointing to the way something is done or occurs. Spanish 'así/Así' (thus) is uniform across the dominant cluster and S73616. Hindi 'ऐसे/ऐसा' (like this) maintains the manner sense. Arabic 'هكَذا/هٰكَذا/هَكَذَا' are orthographic variants of the same word. Korean '이와-같이/이렇게' (like this/in this way) are synonymous manner expressions. Swahili 'hivyo/vivyo-hivyo' (like that/exactly like that) confirms the manner reading. S73616 is identical in meaning to the main cluster. S73617 with Spanish 'tan' (so, degree) and Hindi 'इतना' (so much) represents degree modification, but this is a contextual extension of the same adverb rather than a separate lexical sense. All 209 occurrences are unified as one demonstrative manner adverb. 209×
