neck

Examples

oran .

She wore a gold ring around her neck.

.

The bird has a long neck.

.

He touched his neck with a cold hand.

.

The child threw its arms around my neck.

.

The horses have strong necks.

Short, regular, and the source of a genuine trap: is a neck, is a colour, and dropping that second r changes the sentence completely. The derivations are straightforward - o for a collar, koltuko for a scarf, kolĉeno for a necklace. Body parts in Esperanto take the possessive normally rather than the definite article that French and Spanish prefer, so rather than the bare , though the article version is understood.
