Word derivation for "luck" :
Basque = zori, Finnish = onni
Miresua = zoni
My previous Miresua conlang word for luck was izon, which was a total alphabetic scramble. The word should have ended in I, like both the Basque and the Finnish words.
Another Basque word for luck is zorte.
The word luck does not appear in
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, although the adverb luckily does twice.
