scarce · lean (having little extra) · somewhat less (than)
çekim: karşılaştırma knapper · üstünlük am knappsten
eş: ausreichend, gerade, gerafft
köken: From Middle Low German knap, probably related to Old Norse hneppr (“button”) and hneppa (“pinch”), all from Proto-Germanic *knappô, *knappa-, which is perhaps related to Proto-West Germanic *knappō (“knob, boy”) or Proto-Germanic *knuppaz (“lump, clod”), though the semantic gaps are non-trivial. Cognate with Dutch knap, but of uncertain ultimate origin. Also compare Danish næppe (“hardly at all”).
köken: From Late Latin concīsus (“cut short”), from Latin concīdō (“to cut to pieces”), from com- + caedō (“to cut, to strike down”), from Proto-Indo-European *keh₂id-, *kh₂eyd- (“to cut, hew”).
laconic (using as few words as possible; pithy and concise)
çekim: karşılaştırma lakonikusabb · üstünlük leglakonikusabb
zıt: beszédes
köken: Borrowed from Latin Lacōnicus (“Spartan”), from Ancient Greek Λακωνικός (Lakōnikós, “Laconian”). Laconia was the region inhabited and ruled by the Spartans, who were known for their brevity in speech. With -ikus ending.
