Rather than aiming for purely descriptive or taxonomic labels (e.g. \"string instrument\" or \"wind instrument\"), Sekimoli prioritizes compounds that are emotionally resonant, metaphorically vivid, or culturally iconic (e.g. \"bear instrument\", \"moon instrument\", \"storm drink\", etc.). This approach is not only aesthetically...\""
