@chrysn@chaos.social @Legit_Spaghetti@mastodo.neoliber.al @baeroline@mastodon.social Awesome; thanks to you both for all the notes!
Sounds like there isn't an equivalent to the Spanish "-lo" suffix, but hey, that's how languages be sometimes.
That being the case, it does seem a lot smoother replacing the "keep" entirely with verbs that capture the meaning, as suggested with "Abscondĕ hoc, prōtĕgĕ hoc".
Appreciate the insights :)

@alexglow@chaos.social @Legit_Spaghetti@mastodo.neoliber.al I think the word order to justify the "hoc" (it is an emphasis, otherwise it'd be moot to say anything at all) would be to have it first. And I'd probably not repeat it; all is spoken in a hurry. > Hoc absconde. Protege.
