EN: writing instrument
Anything you can use to write, from your trusty G-Tec pen for taking notes, to the Mongol pencil you used in elementary school, or even the marker for your whiteboard brainstorming session. If you can make letters with it, it's a `pansulat`. It's the weapon of choice for students, writers, and anyone who's ever had to sign a contract or a birthday card.
From `pan-` (instrumental prefix) + `sulat` (to write, letter).
ROOT MEANING: letter; writing; handwriting
A general term. More specific terms like "bolpen" (ballpen) or "lapis" (pencil) are more common in everyday speech. "Panulat" is a common synonym.
