"pašlaik" meaning in All languages combined

See pašlaik on Wiktionary

Adverb [Latvian]

Etymology: From paš + laiks (“time”) (perhaps originally a locative form, pašā laikā), where paš is a stem variant of pats (“self”), here apparently with the meaning of “exact(ly),” “direct(ly),” “outright,” “immediately.” The general meaning would have changed from “(at its) own time”, “at that time” (the latter still attested) to “at this immediate time” = “now.” Etymology templates: {{compound|lv|paš|laiks|gloss2=time}} paš + laiks (“time”) Head templates: {{head|lv|adverb|head=}} pašlaik, {{lv-adv}} pašlaik
  1. now, currently; at that time (at the current moment) Synonyms: pašreiz, patlaban, šobrīd, tagad
