esamība

Etymology
A word coined at the beginning of the 19th century, apparently from a (non-existing) present passive participle *esams (compare 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬). J. Endzelīns considered the word wrong; in 1935, he proposed (unsuccessfully) and  as replacements. A new, and still in use, synonym was coined in 1963.
