orange is henoul (revisited)

henoul = orange (Lhaesine pronunciation = HEH-nool) (adjective) (color) (some things Google found for "henoul": a rare term; a last name which can be Belgian)

My previous Lhaesine word for "orange" was "racoul". Maybe this new word seems more fitting to me because it resembles the word henna, which is a plant used to make a reddish-orange dye.

This word has been revised. The Lhaesine word for "orange" is now "hoanar". This posting is no longer current.

green is vaela (revisited)

vaela = green (Lhaesine pronunciation = VAAW-luh) (adjective) (some things Google found for "vaela": an uncommon term; a last name; user names; Vaela Pallas Cultural Resort and Spa in Greece; Vaela Traxis is a game character in Vanguard Saga of Heroes; name of cities in Estonia and Mozambique)

I'm continuing to rethink and modify my words for colors. My previous word for green was "wale".

This word has been revised. The Lhaesine word for "green" is now "daela". This posting is no longer current.

yellow is jonde (redone)

jonde = yellow (Lhaesine pronunciation = JOAND) (adjective) (some things Google found for "jonde": an uncommon term; JONDE is an acronym for Joven Orquesta Nacional de España (National Youth Orchestra of Spain); Jonde Lane Farm Bed & Breakfast in Pennsylvania; a first name, notably artist Jonde Northcutt; a last name; user names; Jonde is a Finnish Electronic HipHop musical artist)

My previous word for "yellow" was "juila". It made me think of the feminine name Julia. I realize that "jonde" resembles the French word for "yellow" which is "jaune".

This word has been redone. The Lhaesine word for "yellow" is now "pethas". This posting is no longer current.

black is ferac (revisited)

ferac = black (Lhaesine pronunciation = FEH-rack) (adjective) (some things Google found for "ferac": an uncommon to rare term; FERAC is an acronym for Fisheries, Ecology and Recreation Advisory Committee in Wales; user names; a US aviation navigation waypoint; a last name; gaming character name; FERAC Builders and Development of the Philippines; Latin language stem or base of words meaning fertile; name of a place in Turkey)

Orginally my word for "black" was "ferag". Then, for pronunciation reasons, I changed the word to "ferhag". Now I'm changing it again.
