masc nom pl of amu (pron); fem nom pl of amu (pron); masc acc pl of amu (pron); fem acc pl of amu (pron); …

(of person or place or thing) that; such; so and so; that yonder

Etymology. From *ama- (that yonder), akin to Sanskrit amas and ultimately to the Indo-European demonstrative *sm-o- (Greek homos, Latin similis, English same); the sense 'yonder' reflects the distal deixis. Cognate with English that (Germanic demonstrative) and Latin tam (so, to that degree).
