Tung Chung-shu of the Han describes the emotional nature of T’ien in the following words: “Heaven has its own feelings of joy and anger and a mind which experiences sadness and pleasure, analogous to those of man.”⁵⁴

fetti
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: fetty
Etymology: Probably a shortened form of Spanish feria (“fair; street market; (slang) money”), itself from Latin fēriae (“holy day; vacation; any occasion of rest”), thus making the term a doublet of fair. Alternatively, a clipping of confetti, presumably in an allusion to "making it rain". The fact that usage of fetti appears to be centred around California, where feria (“money”) is also commonly used, makes a derivation from Spanish more plausible.
Senses: examples: text: I can't get enough of that fetti for real / And now I'm hopin' that she's on the pill

[…] About the life of Anteas nothing is known, though he was most likely an hetairos of Philip II. […] Alexander's hetairos suffered from a physical ailment. […] Demetrios, allegedly a member of Dimnos' conspiracy, was removed from office in the land of the Ariaspians and replaced with Ptolemy son of Lagos (Arr. 3. 27. 5), an hetairos of the King.
