bronze is srale (revisited)
srale = bronze (Lhaesine pronunciation = SRAIL) (noun and adjective) (metal alloy) (some things Google found for "srale": an uncommon term; user names; a misspelling of sale; a misspelling of scale)
My previous Lhaesine word for "bronze" was "sral", so this is a minor modification. I decided to add an "e" to the end of the word, which changes how the "a" is pronounced. It also changes the look of this conlang word.
Bronze is the term used for alloys of copper and tin.
