Basque edit

Etymology edit

From Proto-Basque *oso.

Pronunciation edit

  • (file)
  • IPA(key): /os̺o/ [o.s̺o]
  • Rhymes: -os̺o
  • Hyphenation: o‧so

Adjective edit

oso (comparative osoago, superlative osoen, excessive osoegi)

  1. complete, entire
  2. all, the whole
    Synonym: guzti
  3. just, righteous
  4. (Northern) healthy
    Synonym: osasuntsu

Usage notes edit

  • In the sense "all", the terms oso and guzti are not always interchangeable. The term oso usually only modifies nouns referring to "dividable" referents. For example, both opil osoa and opil guztia (the whole cake) are correct and virtually synonymous; however *zuku osoa (literally the whole juice) is not and zuku guztia must be used instead.

Adverb edit

oso (not comparable)

  1. very, much
    oso onavery good
  2. completely

Usage notes edit

  • When used as an adverb meaning "very", it precedes the adjective or adverb it modifies. Optionally, it can also precede the noun modified by the adjective. For example, both mendi oso handia and oso mendi handia (the very big mountain) can be used.
