bad is rhac (revisited)

rhac = bad (Lhaesine pronunciation = RRAHK) (adjective) (some things Google found for "rhac": a uncommon term; RHAC is an acronym for Radio Historical Association of Colorado; RHAC stands for Richmond Hill Aquatic Club of Ontario, Canada; RHAC is an acronym for Residence Hall(s) Advisory Council; short for rhacodactylus which is a genus of medium to large geckos; RHAC is an acronym for Rural Health Advisory Commission (or Council))

My previous Lhaesine word for "bad" was "rhaet". The new word is shorter and harsher in pronunciation.

some is odal (revisited)

odal = some (Lhaesine pronunciation = AW-dahl) (adjective) (some things Google found for "odal": a common term; a traditional district of Norway; name of a German black metal band; a last name; a Germanic Elder Futhark rune which represents the o sound; a medieval mainly Scandinavian term for the family heritable land; name of a city in India)

My previous Lhaesine word for "some" was "adl". This word was changed because of the odd "dl" consonant combination. I decided to change the first letter to "o" for pronunciation and because I don't have that many words starting with that letter.

silver is tirsar (reinstated)

tirsar = silver (Lhaesine pronunciation = TIHRCE-ahr) (noun) (some things Google found for "tirsar": a rare term; a last name that's Romanian; means something in Turkish; Tirsar is a place name that translates as "arrow lake" in Punjab, India; possible misspelling of "tirar" which means "pull, take away" in Spanish, Portuguese, and Catalan; a fantasy character name)

Since I decided to allow the "rs" consonant on the end of syllables, I'm reinstating this word for "silver" again. Instead of being pronounced "TIH-rsahr" it is "TIHRCE-ahr", similiar to the English words "tears are" but with a "s" sound instead of a "z".

I have changed the word for "silver" many times. My most recent Lhaesine conlang word for "silver" was "tishar".

This word has been revised yet again. The Lhaesine word for "silver" is now "tirsa". This posting is no longer current.

wise is darsan (revisited)

darsan = wise (Lhaesine pronunciation = DAHRCE-ahn) (adjective) (some things Google found for "darsan": a very common term; "darshan" or "darsan" means "a blessed sight of the divine" in Hinduism and Sikhism; user names; a last name; name of a town in Iran)

My previous Lhaesine word for "wise" was "rsada". I shifted the letters around and added a "n". Instead of getting rid of the unusual "rs" consonant combination, I'm keeping it as an end of syllable combination.

wheel is podrin (redone)

podrin = wheel (Lhaesine pronunciation = PAW-drihn) (noun) (some things Google found for "podrin": an uncommon term; user names; an unusual last name; may be a form of the Spanish verb "poder" which means "be able to, can")

My previous Lhaesine conlang word for "wheel" was "puiwa", which was a peculiar looking word.

binding is fasewe (revisited)

fasewe = binding (Lhaesine pronunciation = FAH-see'w) (noun) (some things Google found for "fasewe": a rare term; a last name that can be Nigerian; appears in gobbledygook text)

My previous Lhaesine word for "binding" was "fasiwn". I'm changing it because of the odd, no longer used, "wn" consonant combination. By losing the final "n", I make the word somewhat less similar to the English words fasten and fastener.

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

door is tiiba (revisited)

tiiba = door (Lhaesine pronunciation = TIE-buh) (noun) (some things Google found for "tiiba": an uncommon term; user names; character in anime Slayers; a Japanese name; means something similiar to "wing" in Estonian)

My previous Lhaesine word for "door" was "thiba". I'm changing it because it was atypical, the only word that began with "th" in this entire conlang language.

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

difficult is terucen (revisited)

terucen = difficult (Lhaesine pronunciation = TEH-ruh-kehn) (adjective) (some things Google found for "terucen": a very rare term; may be a last name; other occurrences seemed to be just gobbledygook)

My previous word for "difficult" was "terinpan", which no longer works within the rules for Lhaesine because of that "np" consoant combination. Over the years I've come up with various rules for building words in this conlang language.

Happy New Year!

happy is hiraen

hiraen = happy (Lhaesine pronunciation = HIH-raawn) (adjective) (some things Google found for "hiraen": an uncommon to rare term which is close in spelling to the common term "hiren"; user names; something called Hiraen Aravit's Sul Sphere in EverQuest 2; Hiraen National Sanatorium and Hiraen clays of Japan)

Merry Christmas!

lead is rudas (revisited)

rudas = lead (Lhaesine pronunciation = ruh-DAHS) (noun) (metal) (some things Google found for "rudas": a common term; Rudas Baths in Budapest which were first built during the Turkish occupation of Hungary in 1550; RUDAS stands for Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale; a last name that can be Hungarian or can be Hispanic; means "brown" in Lithuanian)

My previous word for "lead" was "rudis". This is a small change. I think my new word looks somewhat heavier, more like lead.

This word has been revised again. The Lhaesine word for "lead" is now "burc". This posting is no longer current.

swamp is dutha (revisited)

dutha = swamp (Lhaesine pronunciation = DUHTH-uh) (noun) (some things Google found for "dutha": an uncommon to rare term; an unusual last name that can be from France or Ireland or Hungary or India; name of a city in Turkey; user names; Dutha river and Dutha Knights in the World of Terris fantasy game setting; Dutha Spring in Western Australia; a place in a poem of Ossian which is supposedly Scottish-Gaelic)

My previous Lhaesine word for "swamp" was "dufash", which was rather unwieldy. I can use the "th" consonant combination in Lhaesine, and I should try to use it more often.

zinc is ninel (revisited)

ninel = zinc (Lhaesine pronunciation = NIH-nehl) (noun) (metal) (some things Google found for "ninel": a common term; Ninel Conde is a Mexican actress and singer; a feminine Russian first name which is a backward spelling of Lenin, the Communist revolutionary leader; a last name, notably musician Emma Ninel; user names)

My previous Lhaesine word for "zinc" was "nines". Even though my conlang word was pronounced differently than "nines" in English, I decided to modify this word. Somehow "nines" didn't seem quite fitting.

Zinc is the fourth most common metal in use today.

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