hoira = flame (Lhaesine pronunciation = HOY-ruh) (noun) (some things Google found for "hoira": an uncommon term; a feminine first name that can be Filipino; user names; a last name; name of a WoW gaming character; Jabal Hoira Hedi is a mountain in Yemen)
This is a new Lhaesine word. I'm reutilizing a former word from my other conlang, Miresua, which previously meant "sand".
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.

deep is sorne (revisited)
sorne = deep (Lhaesine pronunciation = SOHRN) (adjective) (some things Google found for "sorne": an uncommon term; SORNE is an alternative music project/artist from Austin; Sorne Hill Wind Farm in Ireland; an uncommon last name; user names; Domaine and Golf du Val de Sorne in eastern France; Sorne Co. Ltd of South Korea; a Basque feminine first name; a tributary of the Birs (French: Birse) river in Switzerland; Messia-sur-Sorne is a town in eastern France)
My previous Lhaesine word for "deep" was "soara". This modification is because I'd rather not have a word for deep that looks like the word soar, which means rise or fly upwards.

hes = fog (Lhaesine pronunciation = HESS) (noun) (some things Google found for "hes": a very common term; a misspelling of "he's"; a last name; NYSE stock symbol for Hess Corporation which is in the Oil & Gas industry; HES stands for Hanchett Entry Systems Inc. which sells integrated access control products; The Heinkel HeS 011 was an advanced World War II jet engine; an alternate spelling for Isis, a goddess in Egyptian mythology; in Dutch "hes" means "a short, protective type of shirt, typically worn by manual laborers")
My previous Lhaesine word for "fog" was "hese". I dropped the final e, which changes the vowel from long to short.

My previous Lhaesine word for "pink" was "besh". Because I'm no longer using the long e, "ee", sound in my word for yellow, I decided to use it in my word for pink.

yellow is pethas (revisited)
pethas = yellow (Lhaesine pronunciation = PETH-ahce) (color) (adjective) (some things Google found for "pethas": an uncommon term; plural of petha which is a candied ash gourd candy from North India; user names; a rare last name; Pethas Ltd is a company in Belgium that sells fertilizer for agricultural use; can be phrase "pet has" lacking the space between the words)
My previous Lhaesine word for "yellow" was "pethe", which is pronounced PEETH. Although the word sounds somewhat like peach, I didn't like that it also sounds like pee and peed, informal terms for urination, which is not good for a word for yellow. I'll redefine "pethe" as something else later.

Yes, I'm changing the word for green again. I do change my mind. Somehow the previous Lhaesine word for "green", which was "daeva", was not quite right.
