fetti
Part of speech: noun
Morphological type: simple
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.

Inflected forms:

gloss: Nationalism that transcends traditional (historical) national identities or boundaries (such as borders) in order to create a single, unified identity.
pos: noun

examples: Consequently, though Russia must ultimately recover—and, organized and officered by Germans, her recovery may well be rapid—the immediate future in Central Asia and the Middle East would appear to lie at least as much with Islamic pan-nationalism as with Bolshevism.
Nationalism is sensitive to the limits of its own security, and tends to withdraw into its own borders at precisely that point when it fears for its sovereignty and when faced with the prospect of being absorbed into a larger pan-nationalism.
A brief overview of the three pan-nationalist trends of thought around African, Islamic, and Asian identities shows that pan-nationalism became possible as part of globalizing discourses during the high age of imperialism from the 1880s to the 1920s.
