ZĀNĪL-LI pl: -TIN tale, fable; conversation / consejuelas para hacer reír (M for reduplicated form), cuento, plática, conversación (Z) [(6)Zp.33,36,99,201]. This is commonly found in reduplicated form but there are no attestations of it in the sources for this dictionary which would show whether the reduplication is of the short-vowel, long-vowel, or vowel-glottal stop type.
