Looking at the demand sacrifices and the words, fusrot and sahrahmiik, (demand and sacrifice) it looks like fusmiik or zarahfus could both work:

Example sentence

Alduin (zahrahfus/fusmiik) wah kos vorohah fah ok bahlok

Alduin demands sacrifices to be made for his hunger

How does this look?

So apparently I missed the memo at first that we're constructing these words through communal discussion rather than the "Submit New Word" function - my apologies to whoever handles those! But anyway, might I be allowed to join this most interesting of discussions, and toss in a new word for consideration?

I thought to tackle the verb/noun for a tail strike, and immediately wondered, what would a tail strike remind the dov of, in a visceral sense? After much scribbling and word-combing, I ran across Thul "Thunder," and I thought it fit - it's loud, abrupt, and physically powerful if you're caught right in the middle of it.

Aaaand I'm going to stop there before I sound anymore like some stuffy stuck-up intellectual type, haha. But anyway - what do you guys think of Rokul, from Wahrok "Tail" and Thul "Thunder"? Sharp and snappy like the action, but not a super-obvious compound (I hope)?

@Rokul Altering Thul VERY SLIGHTLY would make it show its power. I think Thul should somehow be the beggining of a word, I just don't know how. Still, Rokul is the best answer we have got so far.

Are we still going with the list despite time? And seeing as we don't have all the words yet?

Yes, A suggestion is that EVERY 5 hours the Jarl picks words wich have been proven the best, therefore aren't being discussed anymore but considered right (like stiir). And if somebody has got a problem with them, there is a suggest revision button.

Flying against the wind metaphorically, how about krizaankran (opposite tide) and a heartscale could be hilspaan (heart shield) as a scale is meant to protect.

For an event that took place in the past, how about wuthros.

The combination of 'wuth' (old) and 'koros' (event/happening).

DragonHeartscale

Dovkana

It sounds unique and flows nicely off the tounge, i waned to include some form of dragon in the word and dov fit the best.

Using it in a scentence like, 

Hi praag ahdinaak dalk wah vey tir dovkana ( You need a special dagger to cut out a dragonheartscale.) 

Good?

i really belive there is a strong importance of kalpa in being the world cycle. i think that kalpa should be world cycle especially since when paarthurnax uses it in the reference of the next world. but if you guys are really stuck on a new word for it, ive thought of some more that might work. Kalkiin for the world cycle. and maybe Dukal for the world being devoured to begin the next world cycle. ill use this in the sentence paarthurnax uses substituting kalpa for the new word. i really think some parts of kalpa should be in the world cycle word even if mine is not good enough to be put in.

Aalkos daar lein los faal Klur do borii kalkiin? Lein vokiin? Fund hi helt borii lein nol nahlii kiin? 

as for dukal 

Alduin's mahtiid los wah drun Dukal fah borii kalkiin wah gon.

riginz, for a strike of the tail. From "rigir" back and "kinz" stab, this is in a more litteral since, rather than the English idiom.  You are taking your "back side" and "stabbing" or slashing or attacking the target

Looking at the demand sacrifices and the words, fusrot and sahrahmiik, (demand and sacrifice) it looks like fusmiik or zarahfus could both work:

Example sentence

Alduin (zahrahfus/fusmiik) wah kos vorohah fah ok bahlok

Alduin demands sacrifices to be made for his hunger

How does this look?

Personally, I was thinking the exact same thing. Or perhaps "Zahrahuth" or something containing "uth".

@Mirkrilaar Yeah, Zahrahuth sounds more like how the dovah would say it.
