Raa is no longer a word. Suggest a change to "mitheruvos".

@Nahlaas, added "live," but I don't think it could be used in the sense of "active / activated" since nahlaas specifically refers to life. The metaphorical sense of "live" is a modern connotation that wouldn't exist in the word nahlaas.

@Mithraa, edited to mitheruvos.

@Nahlaas,

I was specifically thinking of it being used only for life, but I guess I used a terrible example. I think adding the definition would help someone's understanding of the word. Of course, it's borderline unnecessary and I wouldn't be against just leaving it as "alive".

I've added it anyhow, but mentioned in the notes that it refers to life.

Rigir

We need to discuss the schism of this word to form a word for the body part and a word for the preposition.

@Gon, expanded definition and deleted the redundant gonah and orgonah.

@Rigir, thanks for bringing this back (heh) up, I think a one-syllable preposition would be best, or something deriving from amativ. Anatomically, a dragon's back doesn't face "backward," so it makes sense to have separate words.
