wheel is podrin (redone)

podrin = wheel (Lhaesine pronunciation = PAW-drihn) (noun) (some things Google found for "podrin": an uncommon term; user names; an unusual last name; may be a form of the Spanish verb "poder" which means "be able to, can")

My previous Lhaesine conlang word for "wheel" was "puiwa", which was a peculiar looking word.

binding is fasewe (revisited)

fasewe = binding (Lhaesine pronunciation = FAH-see'w) (noun) (some things Google found for "fasewe": a rare term; a last name that can be Nigerian; appears in gobbledygook text)

My previous Lhaesine word for "binding" was "fasiwn". I'm changing it because of the odd, no longer used, "wn" consonant combination. By losing the final "n", I make the word somewhat less similar to the English words fasten and fastener.

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 This posting is no longer current.

door is tiiba (revisited)

tiiba = door (Lhaesine pronunciation = TIE-buh) (noun) (some things Google found for "tiiba": an uncommon term; user names; character in anime Slayers; a Japanese name; means something similiar to "wing" in Estonian)

My previous Lhaesine word for "door" was "thiba". I'm changing it because it was atypical, the only word that began with "th" in this entire conlang language.

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 This posting is no longer current.

difficult is terucen (revisited)

terucen = difficult (Lhaesine pronunciation = TEH-ruh-kehn) (adjective) (some things Google found for "terucen": a very rare term; may be a last name; other occurrences seemed to be just gobbledygook)

My previous word for "difficult" was "terinpan", which no longer works within the rules for Lhaesine because of that "np" consoant combination. Over the years I've come up with various rules for building words in this conlang language.

Happy New Year!
