Headword: *nu=n
Adler number: nu,602
Translated headword: now
Vetting Status: high
Translation:
A temporal adverb.[1]
"Now you must send every last line from from yourself, and brandish a fervid spirit and ineluctable arguments by which you may overcome this person; for he is a versatile man, and one who fashions undifficult pathways out of difficulties." 'Line' [is] rope. He is speaking figuratively as though in reference to a mast: you must manipulate all the riggings for the sake of [over]coming him.[2]
