evoni = boat (noun) (some things Google found for "evoni": a rare term; user names; a feminine first name; Evoni fashion doll; an unusual last name)
Word derivation for "boat" :
Basque = ontzi, Finnish = vene
Miresua = evoni
My previous Miresua conlang word for "boat" was "novte", which was a rather odd combination of letters. Having my new word be a feminine first name seems fitting, as boats are often referred to by sailors as she.

pig is serki
serki = pig (animal) (noun) (some things Google found for "serki": an uncommon term; serki.com is a Turkish website; user names; a first name that is may be Serbo-Croatian or Turkish; a last name than can be Hungarian; appears to mean something in Polish; apparently means "Saracen" in High Icelandic; places in Pakistan, Russia, and Papua New Guinea; first part of several two-word place names in Niger)
Word derivation for "pig" :
Basque = txerri, Finnish = sika
Miresua = serki
I used the common vowel for the final vowel. I decided not to use the tx from the Basque word. I couldn't start this word with r, due to one of my conlang rules.
This word is a Miresua word for a type of animal. My definition is not in any way intended to be a comment about other serki.
This Miresua conlang word has been changed. The word for pig is now sirri.

My previous Miresua conlang word for west was beldenä. This is a small change to use closer to an equal share of letters from the Finnish word. The Basque word for west is amazingly lengthy (ten letters!), but that's what it is.
This Miresua conlang word has been changed. The word for west is now mensi.

Word derivation for "south" :

I'm modifying this word because the Basque word that I previously used for "south" wasn't entirely correct. This time I'm using "hego" instead of "hegoalde". In Basque "hegoalde" can mean "south", but it also means "southern area". The Basque suffix "-alde" means "area, nearness, around". My previous Miresua conlang word for south was oltede.
