It is used of God making the world through the letters. Interpretation: Tradition reads God's designing as careful and ordered, with the three mother letters shaping the world, the year and the human being. In the primary lessons: In design and technology lessons pupils design and make products; in maths they design patterns and shapes. In everyday life design is how things look and work. Phrases: «design and technology», «by design», «designed for», «a flower design». ### examples - These three mothers did he create, form, and design, and combine with the three mothers in the world, and in the year, and in Man, both male and female.
