>>No, the example was just another attempt to explain the usage of the word. I presume we can drop the matter, having got nowhere - if someone as openminded as you can't see a possible use for the word, then, well, it won't exist.

Though I generally don't subscribe to Sapir–Whorf hypothesis, there are things that language forces you to do. After visiting a couple of languages I can see how some things are not done at all in one language while being perfectly normal in another, plus the whole spectrum of cases in between.
