| First use | ORD-001-A (S825): go {go-su ne ra}, la-o-li ka-de-zo lo-li — "If the men of Reserve Police Battalion 101 could become killers under such circumstances, what group of men cannot?" (Browning, Ordinary Men) |
Definition
go (origin/cause) + su (structure/organization) = origin-structure = the organized causal-structural field in which events and agents are embedded = circumstances. Distinct from pa-su (W157: mountain = structured place): go-su names the causal-background field, not a geographical feature. The compound enables the situational axis of causal analysis: la-go-su as agent names circumstances as a causal force. go {go-su ne ra} = because circumstances have force (S825, Browning's central causal claim). la-go-su ra lo-mi-vo-to = circumstance overpowers conscience (S832). Note: the causal particle go and the root go in go-su are distinct tokens — the particle precedes {}, the compound appears inside or as agent-marked la-go-su. First explicit compound naming circumstance/situation as a structured causal entity. Extends: go-su-ra (situational force = go-su + ra, S834).
