grandfather is isaioni

isaioni = grandfather (noun) (some things Google found for "isaioni": a very rare term; may mean something or be similar to some word in Italian)

Word derivation for "grandfather" :
Basque = aitona, Finnish = isoisä
Miresua = isaioni

Like my previous Miresua conlang word for "grandmother", this is a compound word. It's a combination of the Miresua words "isai" and "oni", which mean "father" and "big". I wish it didn't have three vowels in a row, but it's a valid alphabetic mixture of the Basque and Finnish words.

This Miresua conlang word has been changed. The word for "grandfather" is now "isaosa".

grandmother is imaoni

imaoni = grandmother (noun) (some things Google found for "imaoni": an uncommon to rare term; an unusual feminine first name; "imaoni" or "ima oni" may mean something in Croatian or Serbian)

Word derivation for "grandmother" :
Basque = amona, Finnish = isoäiti
Miresua = imaoni

As well as being a mishmash of letters from the Basque and Finnish words, this is a compound word. It's a combination of the Miresua words "ima" and "oni", which mean "mother" and "big". The Finnish word for "grandmother", which is "isoäiti", literally means "big" and "mother".

This Miresua conlang word has been changed. The word for "grandmother" is now "imaosa".

Word derivation for "big" :

My previous Miresua word for "big" was "niho". I'm changing this word so that I can use it in a couple of new, compound words.

This is another new word. And I'm dropping back to my usual, every four days, schedule of posts to this blog.

Note the interesting similarity between the Basque word for father (aita) and the Finnish word for mother (äiti).

This is a new word, not a revision.

sand is hoira (revisited)

Word derivation for "sand" :
Basque = hondar, Finnish = hiekka
Miresua = hoira

My previous Miresua conlang word for sand was herkan. I'm changing this word because I thought it was too similar to the word for three which is herko.

Word derivation for "three" :

My previous Miresua word for three was herlo. This is a small change, but a change that I think that makes sense.

This Miresua conlang word has been changed. The word for three is now kire.
