🏨📸 posar = 'pose' + ar: to pose, and to set yourself down, lodge, or rest
Spanish posar comes from Latin pausare, 'to pause or halt', which also gave English 'pose' and 'pause'. To pose is to hold still; to lodge or rest on a surface is to stop and stay put. All three senses share the idea of stopping in place.
