        DefinitionShort: a strong, destructive force

        Glosses: ['force', 'violence']

        Comments: In some languages it is difficult, if not impossible, to find a term such as ‘violence,’ but one may describe the effects of violence by expressions which indicate the harm that is done. For example, {S:04400502600024} may be translated ‘they did not wish to harm anyone, for they were afraid of the people,’ and similarly in {S:04402704100044}, one may translate ‘the waves did great damage to the stern.’
