orange is hounar (revisited)

hounar = orange (Lhaesine pronunciation = HOO-nahr) (adjective) (color) (some things Google found for "hounar": a rare term; user names; a misspelling of "honor"; an alternate name for the Besme language of Chad; possibly an Australian feminine first name)

My previous Lhaesine word for "orange" was "henoul". Somehow I just didn't think that word fit.

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 This posting is no longer current.

beshas = pink (Lhaesine pronunciation = BEHSH-ahce) (adjective) (color) (some things Google found for "beshas": an uncommon term; user names; means "we sit" in Romani; means "while, during" in Yiddish; possibly a misspelling of a conjugation of the Spanish verb besar which means to kiss)

My previous Lhaesine word for "pink" was "beras". I liked that word, but I thought I was using the letter R too often in my words for colors.

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 This posting is no longer current.
