Lhaesine is a conlang, an artificial or constructed language. This is a project to invent a lexicon of new "words" in an imaginary language. Postings shows English to Lhaesine, my approximate Lhaesine word pronunciation, and what Google search found for my made-up word.

paper is erest (redone)
erest = paper (Lhaesine pronunciation = EH-rehst) (noun, adjective) (some things Google found for "erest": an uncommon term; ERest can stand for rest mass energy in Einsteinian relativity; EREST Sports Club in Japan; user name; a mistakenly splintered part of word "interest"; a last name which can be German)
My previous Lhaesine word for "paper" was "higast". As I kept only the last two letters this change is more than merely revisiting the word. It's hard to say exactly why I think my new word is better, more "papery". The new word "erest" is less harsh sounding.

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 This posting is no longer current.

dragon is asourha (revisited)
asourha = dragon (Lhaesine pronunciation = ah-SOOR-uh) (noun) (mythical creature) (some things Google found for "asourha": a unique term: did not match any documents)
