tsoines, pm. Within (implying a hollow space).

usage: While not strictly erroneous to conflate with apes, usually this word emphasizes a literal, physical hollow space, or the presence of an inanimate object. Other usages of "within" that might be found in English tend to draw on figurative or formally-agreed-upon placements that can only be experienced by abstract ideas and people, hence inanimate objects are not very eligible. For example, deserts, caves, and mouths are physically defined spaces, but countries, dreams, and minds are not. (Chairs and flat surfaces often take kipes.) However, note that an inanimate object would still be tsoines a country, as it cannot experience the figurative sense of presence.
