<minidelurk> Estel -
'Personal' |eki| is used mainly for humans, as well as
any other personal being [...] it is also used of
languages, books and other works of literature.
I think musical instruments are also referred to with |eki|.
- what a lovely grouping! What about musical works? Music
performances? Is a musical instrument still |eki| when it's not being
played?
