anwūlīñi

anwuuliinji

anwūlīñi

This is the word for ‘sand’.

anniþen tema jēwāri anhāri nīkan antāoni nīkan anwūlīñi anlōi ē rūjāñ ew sūjīr mo sarōña;
Soon he saw the waters of the lakes with waves with the golden sands around it but not at back.

jakōna

jakoona

jakōna

This is the word for a small rock, like a pebble. I have discovered that I used a plural form rather than a collective to refer to gravel. No doubt there is something about gravel that defies collectiveness.

la jasāma nāra ñe jamāxxānwe ē pa jakōni ī pa anλāon nāpie ī pa jaxūna wā;
The whole desert was like a vast expanse of gravel, and too much width, and no pattern.

ankīþa

ankiitha

ankīþa

I blogged jakīþa “rock, stone” earlier. This would be the stative, meaning “made of stone”.

se jōnne mo mārōni makāsāti sū ansūni ankīþi;
Seven for the dwarf lords in their halls of stone

ancāēl

ancaaeel

ancāēl

Clay. It is probably not a coincidence that the word for bowl (jacēla) looks similar.

Like other words for minerals, the singular refers to a piece or portion of the substance.

ñi jakerāka jēnēie tō jacāēl;
Flesh-colored pigment is made from clay.

anlēλōnne

anleeljoonne

anlēλōnne

A few more mineral words because they’re fun. This is the word for fool’s gold or iron pyrite. It is related to the word for gold (anlōnne) though where that λ came from, I don’t know.

ankōreta

ankooreta

ankōreta

This is the word for gems and for precious metals or for any other fine and valued materials. The singular jakōreta can be used to mean gem or jewel or a piece of gold (or other precious metal).
