Word derivation for "blood" :

My previous Miresua conlang word for blood was edor. That word was a bit of a mish-mash. After some thought, I decided to change it. I considered making this word vodi, but vodi means water in Croatian and is close to the Russian word for water which transliterated is voda.
This Miresua conlang word has been changed again. The word for blood is now erdo.
