"Lami" connotes the English adjective referring to a high degree of satisfaction while the word "Sii" (read: see-i) is a vernacular word that affirms the adjective referred to and brings it to its superlative sense. Thus, when one says "Lami Sii!" it means the satisfaction is beyond compare. The word "Sii" is a distinguishing mark of a Maasinhon because only a Maasinhon knows when and how to use the word and we mean using it without fault.
