Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

"lui" has several meanings.
It can be:

• an object pronoun, replacing an indirect object referring to a person or animal.
• a masculine stressed pronoun, which is used for emphasis (as is the case in your sentence) or indicating someone specific.

In your sentence, it's optional, and serves to put emphasis on the fact that you're talking about an old word, in opposition to what was being talked about right before
