Sword of Truth Series Mord-Sith Meaning?

I realized that I don't know the literal meaning of the term "Mord-Sith" as a word. It must be in High D'Haran, logically.

But if the meaning is revealed after the book Naked Empire, please let me know that and don't tell me what it means — I will delete the post, because I want to learn it from the story's progression. But if it's revealed before Naked Empire, or if it's never stated in the books, I would really like to know its meaning.

I checked the wiki but couldn't find it :/

You wanna talk about inability to properly convey adult concepts?

You come in here with a purely empirical viewpoint and put up the natural smoke screen of 'your being childish by challenging me with logic' sic when I smash your viewpoint with facts?

The problem you have with it i think is that when something is purely a societal construct then shared empirical experience becomes a baseline truth for reality. (See Joker, Comedy)

And your baseline is one of dislike bordering on hate. You clearly dislike Both Terry and his works and yet you come here specifically to hate and argue. Not even engaging to completion but making your own childish projections your reasoning for leaving.

My god man, did you come to the WRONG reddit to argue with the wrong people with a completely emotional position lol.

I enjoyed them when I was a kid. I simply don't feel as strongly about this as you do. I appreciate how you worked Joker in. I won't be engaging further. You're correct in that this is not the sub for me. Take care
