ボキナシリ
Ainu「極楽」
poknasirmedium
Poknasir is directly documented for the other world or underworld, and narrative and Mukawa contexts support that range. The commentary explains the recorded 極楽 as another world; the Japanese Buddhist paradise label is not a precise lexical definition of poknasir. The related poknamosir also denotes the realm of the dead and can acquire a punitive sense in some contexts. The current form and confidence remain; poknasiri tests final リ, and pokna sir displays the components. No modern heaven/hell opposition is imposed on this historical pair.
