First use S143 (fa-CON-C2, March 2026): la-mi fa-re. la-mi to-ko lo-su.

Composition

fa (affective substrate) + re (repetition/cycle)

Definition

The affective substrate state as a whole is cycling — returning to a recognizable pattern. fa-re is a meta-level observation: not that a specific emotional content recurs (fa vo-de re = value-decay cycling), but that the patterned substrate state itself is recurring. Used when the speaker recognizes they are in a cycle without necessarily naming the emotional content. Natural companion: to-ko lo-su (I remember this pattern-structure = I've been here before).

Notes

Tonesu re as a primitive (repetition is ontologically basic) means this compound is structurally natural: affect-cycling is a first-class observable fact, not a secondary inference. fa-re is pattern recognition turned inward. Contrast: fa vo-de re (S137) = the specific content (value-decay) is what cycles; fa-re = the whole substrate pattern is cycling regardless of its specific content.
