I think a word based on Fahliil would be better here. Maybe Volgfahliil, Wild Elf? |

Since Dirun means 'deathism', perhaps 'Diroz' would be a better word? as a compound of 'Dir' and 'Vudoz', 'Death' and 'Avoid'. The origin of the word could be in avoiding death, which generalized to 'be cautious' or 'mind' (verbs) and that became a noun, 'caution'. 'Diroz' could then have the meaning of both the verb and the noun. |

Liis Dir means "to die". It'd best to change dirun so that it doesn't implicate the canon word dir. Perhaps change it to waraas based on English "beware/aware," Old English "wær". |

LiisI'm confused on how Dirun means Deathism.
Please explain?

@Faant, added "vie". @Hefhah, the difference between hefhah and hefahus is that, without the alteration, hefahus would have three h's in a row as hefhahus. This isn't as problematic in hefhah. My suggestion would be to make hefhah into a hyphenated compound hef-hah, and then merge the adjective hefhahus into hef-hah. Thus, hi hef-hah! would equally be "you're a half-wit!" or "you're half-witted!" |

Does this word also mean "MeasurER of temperature/degree"? I am unclear as to which words are both the action (verb) and the actor (noun). If it does not include "one who does" then it does not make sense for this translation. I still think "yosel-funiik" makes more literal sense and stays consistent with Barometer (Sufus-funiik) and Clock (Tiid-funiik). I don't understand why Malzseyosel is used instead of my entry "Yosel-funiik". If nothing else, I would like to understand why "Malzseyosel" is the preferred version. Any thoughts? |
