EN: to point out; to indicate
This is a more formal or literary way of saying 'ituro' or 'to point out.' Imagine an old map with a dotted line leading to a treasure, or a wise lola giving you cryptic directions. That act of indicating or guiding is 'ihimaton'. It's not just pointing a finger; it's providing a clue or a lead.
From `i-` (verb prefix) + `himaton` (clue, trace, indication).
A less common, somewhat archaic word. More likely to be found in literature or formal speech.
