Definition #71616 - Preferred

 

definition

x1 is like an island in a sea of x2; x1 is very distinct/foreign (in appearance, composition and/or behavior) from surroundings/environment/background x2.

notes

From pe'a daplu. Does not translate the English metaphor that to be an island is to be isolated. jiksei, seicni, and other words derived from sepli are better for this.
