This is the word for “south” and is derived from the stem –ēlk– “ice”.

I really like this one. I will tell you why, the stems for “north” and “south” in Kelen actually make sense to me and my reality. In my country the South is cold and full of ice (The Perito Moreno Glacier, for instance) while the North is actually hot and dry. So yay! for the directions in Kelen. I can apply them to my own land.
