Re: KLBC love




> All of these (except maybe the last one) imply that bang is for your
spouse.


Welll, I don't think you can really say that.  If you took three instances
of "my love" from English writing or speech, odds are good that all refer to
a romantic partner, but that's not all it can mean.

You might decide that /bang/ *tends* to mean a romantic partner.  I'm not
sure I'd go that far.

We also have /parmaqqay/, which *does* mean a romantic partner.
