as 'power'.
Do you think 'povo' always is translated 'power'?
Let's look Oxford dictionary for 'power'.
1. ability to do or act == 'povo'.
2. (pl) faculty of the body or mind == 'povoj'
3. strength, force == 'forto'
4. energy or force that can be uzed to do work == 'povo' (mesure:W), 'forto' (N), 'kurento' (A)
5. right, control, autority == 'potenco'
etc.

sergejm:Do you think 'povo' always is translated 'power'.By coincidence, I just had a letter from an experienced British E-ist who said that 'power' in the sense of electric power or authority is better translated potenco , whereas povo or kapablo relate to the ability to do something. Thus 'electric power' is elektra potenco , but 'I can do it' is Mi povas (or kapablas) fari tion.

billpatt1942:Actually, the "an-" in "anion" comes from the Greek prefix "ana-", etymologically meaning "up". In front of a vowel, both "a-" and "ana-" become "an-".
Hope this is helpful. I don't mean to be pedantic, but I am anywayDitto.
