Let's consider the first periods:
• Primanɔtte (Earlynight) is like Priminvɛrno (Earlywinter) and when you are a bambino (a person from 0 to 7 years old).
• Meʒʒanɔtte (Midnight) is like Meʒʒinvɛrno (Midwinter) and when you are a citto (a person from 7 to 14 years old).
• Tardanɔtte (Latenight) is like Tardinvɛrno (Latewinter) and when you are a ragazzo (a person from 14 to 21 years old).
Age is not just a number, but a point full of poetical associations in your journey, something you should appreciate as you should appreciate each season of the year and time of the day.
Humans are as happy to turn 35, 56 or 84 as they are to turn 7, 14 or 21.
Main influences:

• Impulse vowel (ɔ) at the beginning, culmination vowel (a) at the centre, cadence vowel (ɛ) at the end.

@atlantic.language Disappointment: incorrupted things may be disappointingly dull, compared to adulterated ones
@karmanphilchick Refreshment: experiencing incorruptness is like fresh air to the spirit
