or, _franumana_, if referring to a feminine noun. For instance, I'm not
suggesting that this is relating to yourself at all, but just hypothetically
let's say you wanted to say "i was mistaken". As a female (assuming again),
you would say "Franumana was." or "Ik was franumana." As a male, these become
respectively "Franumans was." and "Ik was franumans." Of course, I don't have
much for franiman. Frankly, though, Koebler doesn't have this meaning
for this
word. I suggest for to be mistaken "uswiss usmitan":
I was in error, "(Ik) uswiss usmat.
