winter is sibor (revisited)

sibor = winter (Lhaesine pronunciation = SIH-bohr) (noun) (some things Google found for "sibor": an uncommon term; SIBOR stands for Singapore Interbank Offered Rate; SIBOR is an acronym for Staten Island Board of Realtors; SIBOR stands for Stored Ion and Bio-Optics Research in the Department of Physics at Texas A&M University; a rare last name; user names; a very rare first name)

My previous Lhaesine word for "winter" was "sibur". This is a tweak so that the word won't look like a plural. In Lhaesine, "sibur" would be the plural of "sib".

yaeril = autumn (Lhaesine pronunciation= YAAW-rihl) (noun) (season) (some things Google found for "yaeril": a rare term; user names; an rare last name that can be English; name of a World of Warcraft night elf rogue character)

My previous Lhaesine word for "autumn" was "yaril". I decided to lengthen this word so that my word for autumn has the same number of letters as my word for spring.

spring is faoren (revisited)

faoren = spring (Lhaesine pronunciation = FOW-ren) (noun) (season) (some things Google found for "faoren": a rare term; name of a male fantasy character; user name on several Russian web forums; "FAOren" and "FAOk" appear on pages written in Basque which may refer to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations; something in German; a last name; appears on The Library of Babel; a geographic feature, a rock, in Sweden)

I'm modifying the spelling, but not the pronunciation of this word. I made a change to one of my Lhaesine pronunciation rules.
