Also, for an event that took place in the past, what about u'um? Thu'um is a way of speaking things into being, and su'um is the breath that exists in things that are, but the past in Dovahzul is just kind of assumed or discovered from context. U'um could undlie all of this.

Miindahqaat - To bestow knowledge of the Thu'um to another; such a gift or blessing. This is a combination of parts of the words for Gift (Ofanaat), Knowledge (Mindah), and Birthright (Kindahqaar). Because only the true Dovah or Dovahkiin can Thu'um, it will inevitably be the birthright of these beings to Thu'um, so the transfer of knowledge of the Thu'um to another is in truth the bestowing of a Dovah or Dovahkiin's birthright, and destiny, in life. |

BoDuSil What about modifying that to ru'ul to create the analogy with mu'ul 'to rule'? What was your original intention behind ru'uu? |

I also think you should add the l, but just because all u'u words have another letter at the end. There is not a single word that ends with u'u. That is almost a rule. |

Also, if you guys like the past event as u'um, what about dezu'um for an inevitable event that will take place in the future? It uses dez as 'fate' and extends the u'um, su'um, thu'um, dezu'um continuum. |

Felniir Ahvus I think it should have a letter at the beggining for the past, like usu'um, from ustiid-past. |

Oh my goodness, I LOVE this! I know there's a time difference for me, I hope I'm not too late! Not my greatest, but I'm pretty sure I had thirty minutes to think of this stuff, so forgive the vobalaan rotte. No time to even read the forum posts. For a weak or unworthy ruler: vobaliin, from vo-, balaan, and in
To permeate through time: zel, inspired by Kel (the translations for the example sentences here are hard to translate well. the first I didn't translate at all. Paarthurnax does it better.)
Kalpa/world cycle: mudus, inspired by Mundus; seyz

- ex. "Tiid boaan fah daar mudus / seyz oblaana." The time has come for this kalpa to end.

Lokrein sounds good! So does ru'ul. I'm not sure how "a past event" would connect to su'um and thu'um, though. I think it'd be safest to leave the hypothetical roots of those words alone. |
