Post Word for commandment/law?
on: December 10, 2016 06:50
I'm working on a translation, and I've found I need a word for commandment or law (specifically referencing the Ten Commandments). I used the dictionary here and found "conui" for the adjective "commanding", but nothing else really relevant. Is it possible to isolate "con" from "conui" and use it as a noun?

I ended up using "commanding words" in my translation instead of trying to reverse-engineer a noun from an adjective, so kindly disregard the above. ^^
