Word derivation for "silent" :
Basque = isil (silent, quiet),
Finnish = äänetön (silent, soundless) (sound (ääni) + less (-tön))
Miresua = äsilön
I think this is the first word in Miresua containing both the letters with umlauts. Definite Finnish influence.
Quiet and silent are similar English words. Silent means the absence of noise, not speaking, whereas quiet means relatively still, not making any noise, or there is a little noise but it was small and not bothersome.
