How about "waving"?  (Am I imagining this, or does a rishon [e.g. RaShY] describe "na'anu'im" as being like a t'nufah [hence, e.g., one may want to position his hands around the arba minim and move them the way a kohen would perform t'nufah]?  What RaShY says on Shmos 29:24 certainly reminds me of na'anu'im....)

P.S. I see that, later in the same digest, in thread "lulav waving," RET used the term "waving," but now I have the above-noted Q re na'anu'im, so I'm still sending this message to Avodah....  Oh, and in that thread, RET wrote, "A second topic was that I said to do 2 wavings per word for ana
(hashem) hoshea na" -- yes, such is done in KAJ/"Breuer's."  (Also, "yomar"/yom'ru" takes two na'anu'im.)

Gut Moeid and all the best from
