Khadye
Out of Universe
✓ Canonical — Attested in: Show
Old Tongue
Etymology
Noun
khadye
- bones (metonymic); one's deep inner self
Use in Canon
Songs
- Nynaeve al'Meara (Season 2)
Notes
- Khadi is literal bone. The -ye suffix marks its use as a metonym for the person's deep inner self, the same metaphor English uses in "I feel it in my bones" or "bone-deep." The song is not saying there is literally water inside the skeleton — it is saying the Two Rivers is part of who Nynaeve is at the deepest level.
