style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Last
Saturday, talking about how hot the sun had been when I went jogging
that
afternoon, I said that the sun had “blared” at me the whole time.
Then thinking about what I had just said, I corrected myself – “no,
I think the word is “glared”. But that slip-up made me wonder if
there’s some real connection between the following words:<o></o></span></font><o></o></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span

<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">blare
– for something (like a radio) to make a sound intense enough that you
want to plug your ears<o></o></span></font><o></o></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">glare
– for something (like the sun) to emit light bright enough that you
need
to squint or close your eyes<o></o></span></font><o></o></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">stare
– for someone to look at you intently enough to make you feel
uncomfortable<o></o></span></font><o></o></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"><o> </o></span></font><o></o></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">They all
seem to share the idea of an intensity that’s too intense for comfort.
And they all share that a-r-e ending. What would you call that piece of
the
word? Is it a morpheme? Or maybe something on a sub-morphemic level?<o></o></span></font><o></o></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"><o> </o></span></font><o></o></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span
style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">It would be
interesting to know if anything along these lines has been researched.
It might
shed some light on things I’ve seen in Austronesian languages –
things which also sometimes seem to carry meaning on a level below that
of the
morpheme.<o></o></span></font><o></o></p>
