Chlouvānem/Lexicon: Difference between revisions

In this page, you can find assorted thematic word lists in the [[Chlouvānem|Chlouvānem language]], as well as assorted cultural information.

Note that there is a very common term, '''yacvān''', which is often presented in textbooks for Chlouvānem as a foreign language as the translation for "Evandor". However, ''yacvān'' more properly refers to Western countries as a cultural concept: while the Western world is basically synonymous with Evandorian-based civilization<ref>All ''contemporary'' Calémerian societies part of global civilization are considered to belong to one of six large civilization groups: Evandorian-based (Evandor, most of Púríton and Queáten, northern Ceránento), hybrid Evandorian-native (southern Ceránento, Fárásen, Ovítioná, most of Védren, the Nâdja area, the southern coast of the Carpan Sea, small parts of Púríton and Queáten), the Spocian world (northern Védren; more or less Evandorian influence is present depending on the area), the Chlouvānem world (including the Brono-Fathanic and Qualdomelic cultures), the Skyrdegan world, and a small series of modern day hybrids of native customs and Yunyalīlti communism (the Kenengyry area) and Evandorian-native-Yunyalīlti communist (parts of eastern Védren).</ref>, the term also refers to the former colonies of Evandorian countries in Púríton, northern Ceránento, and Queáten (less so for those of the other continents, which had a different colonization history). Until the Nāɂahilūmi era conquests, all of Vīṭadælteh was considered part of ''yacvān'', as was the Spocian world until the early Kaiṣamā era.<br/>It is interesting to note the Wanderwort origin of the word ''yacvān'', ultimately deriving from [[Íscégon]] ''íscégunús'' through Old [[Spocian]] ''yičkegŋuw'' and the [[Yombu-Raina languages|Raina languages]]; Spocian lent the term to other languages of Védren, so that a similar term denoting Evandorians (or more broadly Westerners)<ref>Chlouvānem took ''yacvān'' as the name of the concept and not of Westerners, for which it uses the derivation ''yacvānyūs'', which, as all terms denoting people using that suffix, is pluralizable (pl. ''yacvānyaus'').</ref>, and/or their lands, is also found across nearly all of Védren as well as the Dabuke lands and many vernaculars of the Western Inquisition. For some time in the early modern era, before the more frequent contacts between the Chlouvānem world and the West (through Auralia), ''yacvān'' coexisted in this meaning with ''nivuda'' or ''nivudadæltah'', derived from the Nâdja word for Nivaren, the other major cultural centre of ancient and Middle Ages Evandor. This root in Chlouvānem nowadays only survives in ''nivudaṇīṭah'', the word for the white "Mediterranean" skin colour native to Southern Evandor (and therefore Nivaren).

===Márusúturon===

The Western-defined continent of Márusúturon is, in Chlouvānem usage, divided into four smaller continents: Jahībušanā, Araugi, Vaipūrja, and Vīṭadælteh (the latter comprising the entirety of Western-defined Evandor). The "macroregion" column includes, in ''italics'', the continent according to Chlouvānem usage - note that Jahībušanā is entirely covered by the Chlouvānem Inquisition.

List of the 171 dioceses (''rākṣambāha'', pl. ''rākṣambāhai'') of the Chlouvānem Inquisition, ordered by tribunal.

The Jade Coast Area is the heartland of the Chlouvānem nation and one of the most densely populated areas on Calémere. The Jade Coast proper is composed by Mīdhūpraṇa, Kāṃradeša, eastern Nanašīrama, Takajñanta, Latayūlima, and Jhūtañjaiṭa; the other areas inland include most of the areas around Lake Lūlunīkam, the Lanamilūki river valley (basins of Talæñoya and Bhūsrajaiṭa), and the lower part of the Kuɂanibam valley (diocese of Kamaidaneh). All of these areas are parts of river basins that enter this coast, most of them through the tidal Lake Lūlunīkam (on whose shores lies [[Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition/Līlasuṃghāṇa|Līlasuṃghāṇa]], the Inquisition's capital) and its outlet, the Kyūkamiša ria (which constitutes the border between Kāṃradeša on the north and Nanašīrama on the south). This area includes some of the largest cities of the whole planet (Līlasuṃghāṇa, Līlta, Līṭhalyinām) and many other large cities of national importance (Taitepamba, Kūmanabūruh, Lunahīkam, Hūnakṣaila). The coastal dioceses are mostly plains and hills with heavy human use (agricultural, urban, and industrial); central and southern Nanašīrama and Bhūsrajaiṭa are quite hilly, while the southern part of this area (the whole of Kamaidaneh, the southern ⅔ of Talæñoya, central and southern Nanašīrama, inland Latayūlima, and hilly areas of Takajñanta and Jhūtañjaiṭa) are part of the great southern rainforest; Talæñoya and Nanašīrama include parts of the "wall of igapós and várzeas", particularly by the Lanamilūki river, the main river running through the area.

 

Largest cities: ''Līlasuṃghāṇa'' (29,698,169), ''Līṭhalyinām'' (13,147,337), ''Līlta'' (11,792,845).

The Southern Tribunal is entirely composed of the Inquisition's southern rainforest and neighboring islands. For this reason, it is one of the most sparsely populated areas in the whole country: more than half of the population lives in the two metropolitan areas of Lūlunimarta and Hālyanēṃṣah, and most of the rest in the metropolitan areas of Pamahīnēna, Kælšamīṇṭa, or Ājvalimva's river valleys. The inland part of the rainforest is dotted with many tiny riverside communities, most of them accessible only by boat and air: excluding Pamahīnēna in Vælunyuva, which is mostly connected to the Jade Coast, the largest settlement inside the rainforest is Nānya, the episcopal seat of Kīkañjaiṭa, almost in the centre of the tribunal, with 32,000 inhabitants. Miraukātāma is the least populated non-insular diocese of the Inquisition, and one of only three non-insular ones (together with Ērešmaita and Karūskātāma) to not have any rail access: note that the dioceses of Yalyakātāma and Vælunyuva, while part of an unbroken rainforest, are part of the Kuɂanibam river basin (draining into the Jade Coast), and are only connected by rail and road to the Jade Coast and not to the other dioceses of the South.

 

Largest cities: ''Lūlunimarta'' (4,817,090), ''Hālyanēṃṣah'' (4,102,325), ''Pamahīnēna'' (1,293,816).

The Inland Southwest is composed of the southwesternmost corner of the Great Chlouvānem Plain and the westernmost part of the southern rainforest (an area that, actually, drains northwards into the Southern Plain and from there ultimately into the Jade Coast). Its population is centered in the northern part and on the shores of Lake Ñaɂiyanān (the second-largest non-endorheic lake, and the largest freshwater lake, in the Calémerian tropics).

 

Largest cities: ''Māṣmanūruh'' (1,804,336), ''Naṃħaḍāra'' (1,727,199), ''Nāravāṣṭra'' (823,362).

The Coastal Southwest is the area on the main subcontinental body of the Inquisition that lies between the western shore of the Védrenian Ocean and the Yaldašāri Mountains. Most of the area is therefore semiarid due to the rainshadow, but coastal hills along the shores in the westernmost part and some river deltas still support a moderate population. Nalkahīrṣa, episcopal seat of Pramāṇṭai, is by far the largest city of the area, with about 1,7 million people.

 

Largest cities: ''Nalkahīrṣa'' (1,693,063), ''Hæligreisa'' (491,080), ''Jūlākhimai'' (419,798).

* ''grætte'' <small>(class 11 - ''grætē, gryautek, ugruta'')</small> — to shine, glitter, glow, gleam

** ''nīgrætte'' — to turn on (colloquially, the causative of ''grætte'' is often used)

** ''anigrætte'' — to turn off

** ''prākulke'' <small>(''prākilē, prākulek, praukula'')</small> — to answer

Chlouvānem people traditionally distinguish 13 basic colours (''hīmba''), with the notable presence of two heavily culturally significant ones: golden yellow and lilac:

| Gray || ''nijam'' || ''nijmake'' || style="background:#AAAAAA" |

| Green || ''rādhās'' || ''rādhake'' || style="background:#3FF91A" |

| Lilac || ''kalyā'' || ''kalyake'' || style="background:#D8A8FF" |

| Pink || ''keila'' || ''keilake'' || style="background:#F9C6F9" |

| Violet, dark lilac || ''mulda'' || ''muldake'' || style="background:#7116CD" |

* ''dhomiyāna'' — hope

* ''hæṃdyoe'' — dream

* ''lācāh'' — romantic and/or erotic love

* ''læchlyoe'' — fun

* ''naipas'' — grief

* ''ǣlna'' — sadness

It is extremely important in historical anthropology to note that most kinship terms in Chlouvānem are not Proto-Lahob in origin, but derived from other languages of the late-First Era Jade Coast. This is taken as certifying the large amount of intercultural mixing among populations in that time and place. Chlouvānem kinship terminology conceptually follows a [[w:Sudanese kinship|Sudanese kinship]] system, with less distinctions being made further than first cousins, and distinguishes relative age of siblings (and cousins) of the same gender and in the same generation of the Ego.<br/>While Chlouvānem does not have unanalyzable dyadic kinship terms, dvandva compounds may be formed from any two words.

 

Chlouvānem society was traditionally matriarchal and matrilocal; in today's Yunyalīlti Communist society, however, gender equality in marriage and emphasis on the nuclear family are prevalent, even though matrilocality is still prevalent in rural areas. In older just as in modern times, however, Chlouvānem people are an exogamous society, with a broad definition of what is considered incest (perhaps the most disgusting thing to the Chlouvānem mind, and the source of their language's worst insults) and even broader restrictions on allowable marriage partners.

* ''lelyēmita'' — family

* ''āghram'' — relative

===Direct descent relatives (''nīgalastarāhai āghrāk'')===

** ''kordām'' — any sibling who is still a ''nūrya'' (a child up to their ~5th year of life, considered genderless in Chlouvānem culture)

* ''maiha'' — daughter; also "offspring", and thus used for one's children who are still ''nūrya''

* ''kelkah'' — fraternal niece

* ''rāyas'' — fraternal nephew

* ''paṣkelkah'' — fraternal grandniece

* ''paṣrāyas'' — fraternal grandnephew

===Indirect descent relatives (''bīgalastarāhai āghrāk'')===

** ''mahāṣris'' — father's sister's spouse

* ''bhārivam'' — paternal uncle (father's brother)

** ''bhāryūyah'' — father's brother's spouse

** The most commonly used terms for first cousins are formed by prefixing ''naima-'', ''mahāṣ-'', ''jālɂa-'', and ''bhari-'' depending on the aunt or uncle. Thus:

**: First cousins through maternal aunt: ''naimabuneya'', ''naimakalineh'', ''naimaglūkam'' (for a female), ''naimañæltah'', ''naimapraškas'', ''naimanālis'' (for a male);

**: First cousins through paternal aunt: ''mahābuneya'', ''mahāṣkalineh'', ''mahāglūkam'' (for a female), ''mahāšñæltah'', ''mahāṣpraškas'', ''mahāṣṇālis'' (for a male);

**: First cousins through maternal uncle: ''jālɂabuneya'', ''jālɂakalineh'', ''jālɂaglūkam'' (for a female), ''jālɂañæltah'', ''jālɂapraškas'', ''jālɂanālis'' (for a male);

**: First cousins through paternal uncle: ''bharibuneya'', ''bharikalineh'', ''bhariglūkam'' (for a female), ''bhariñæltah'', ''bharipraškas'', ''bhariṇālis'' (for a male).

*** ''emibuviṣṭimē ñæltah/buneya/kalineh'' (pl. ''emibuviṣṭimāhai ñæltai/buneyai/kalinyai'') — female first cousins ''(bureaucratic)''

*** ''emibuviṣṭimē glūkam/praškas/nālis'' (pl. ''emibuviṣṭimāhai glūkāk/praške/nālais'') — male first cousins ''(bureaucratic)''

*** Here, the distinction between ''naimā'' and ''mahāṣī'' (and ''jālɂām'' and ''bharyām'') simply refers to the family side viewed from the Ego: ''naimai'' and ''jālɂāk'' are on the maternal side, while ''mahāṣēyi'' and ''bharyāk'' are on the paternal side.

** ''daniviṣṭimē ñæltah/buneya/kalineh'' (pl. ''daniviṣṭimāhai ñæltai/buneyai/kalinyai'') — female second cousins

** ''daniviṣṭimē glūkam/praškas/nālis'' (pl. ''daniviṣṭimāhai glūkāk/praške/nālais'') — male second cousins

*** Terms such as ''emibuviṣṭimē naimañæltah'' "male's female second cousin through a female first cousin once removed of a prior generation the maternal side of the family" do exist, but are obsolete in contemporary Chlouvānem.

** ''emibuviṣṭimē kailoba/kelkah'' — female first cousin once removed of a following generation

** ''emibuviṣṭimē paṣkailoba/paṣkelkah'' — female first cousin twice removed of a following generation

** ''emibuviṣṭimē āpus/rāyas'' — male first cousin once removed of a following generation

** ''emibuviṣṭimē paṣāpus/paṣrāyas'' — male first cousin twice removed of a following generation

** ''paṣmahāṣris'' — grandfather's sister's spouse

* ''pābhārivam'' — paternal great-uncle (grandfather's brother)

** ''pābhāryūyah'' — grandfather's brother's spouse

===Other relatives (''viṣam āghrāk'')===

** ''ħaiɂlañši'' — wife <small>''(honorific; almost never used for one's own)''</small>

** Note that these four terms (like any other term that refers to spouses except for one's own) are actually genderless: they do not vary according to the gender of the person, only according to which sibling is married. If a female's brother marries a woman or a man, the spouse will be a ''bhāmarah'' in any case. These are used also for one's spouse's brothers or sisters' spouses (A's wife B has a brother, C, whose wife is D — D is A's ''bhāmarah'' (while C is A's ''sūtrākam'')).

* ''sūtrāši'' — spouse's sister

* ''sūtrākam'' — spouse's brother

* ''nalmeinā'' — stepmother <small>(lit. "convergent mother")</small>

* ''nalbunā'' — stepfather

* ''nalñæltah/nalbuneya/nalkalineh'' — stepsister

* ''nalglūkam/nalpraškas/nalnālis'' — stepbrother

* ''nalmaiha'' — stepdaughter

* ''nalpurvās'' — stepson

* ''gulentānin'' — single

** ''gulentānną meinā'' — single mother

** ''gulentānną bunā'' — single father

* ''ukārvah'' — widow (gender-neutral)

* ''vīrādham'' — orphan

** The term, moreover, also means "courtyard" or "garden", and in this sense has been used as a compound element for words such as ''galtarkeika'' (train station) or ''lairkeika'' (airport). Therefore, ''keika'' in colloquial usage often also means "station".

* ''ulañšāmas'' — a [[w:chawl|chawl]]-like building of single-room apartments; typically the place of residency of young people, students (most of the times ''ulañšāme'' are dormitories, and lots of dormitories are ''ulañšāme''), people waiting for a flat to be assigned, or people that don't have a registered workplace and live especially in ''ulañšāme'' used by legions, where they effectively work as volunteers. Like dormitories, they only have shared toilet facilities. It is to be noted that ''ulañšāme'' are not poor housing, and are built and demanded due to offering de facto free housing for the needs of specific categories of people.

* ''emibą kita'' — single-family (detached) house. Common in rural areas, rainforest villages, and in a few older neighborhoods of some cities; suburban areas (more suburban-Japan-like than suburban-US-like) of mainly detached areas are very rare, except for a few ones built in the years just after the end of the Kaiṣamā, mainly around Līlasuṃghāṇa, Līlta, Ajāɂilbādhi, and notably in the metropolitan area of Kalikarāsnah, a major city of the Northeast.  

* ''danileliēmyausire kita'' — two-family (semi-detached) house. Very rare in the Inquisition, except for some areas in the Northwest where they were built in Western colonial times.

* ''kamelšītah'' — a central dining/living room, where guests are usually entertained. Common in older buildings, especially urban ones, but not found in most modern houses.

** In palaces and large public/government buildings, this term is better translated as "hall"; an example is the various sets of halls of the Inquisitorial Palace, e.g. the Blue Halls (''kāmilirāhe kamelšītai'') where the Great Inquisitor resides.

* ''pudbhadvārma'' — bedroom (coll. ''pudbhǣšah'' or simply ''dvārma'')

Addresses start with the post code (''vābdehāni māltsām''), which is a seven-digit number (divided NN NNNNN), and are followed by the name of the diocese (''rākṣambāha'') followed by circuit (''lalka'') and the municipality, be it parish (''hīṃtra''), city (''marta''), or village (''poga''). This is the basic structure except for four cases:

* Eparchies are not divided in circuits, so the eparchy (''nīrvaṣa'') name alone is used, followed by the municipality if it's not one of the core wards.

The second part of the address starts with (in large cities) the borough (''martausire poga'') or equivalent, or the hamlet (''mūreh'') in extra-parish territories or rural areas. This is followed, if there's one, by the zone (''jarāh''), which is a smaller non-statistical subdivision; this is optional if the address is a street name.<br/>

: lūṣyambādhi ch- : latirlārvājuṣi : 3de j- : 9de ki-lā- : 19 s- : 3 šl-: 8 l-

The abbreviations '''ch-''' (''chūltām'', "sector", the name of boroughs in Līlasuṃghāṇa and Līṭhalyinām only), '''j-''', '''ki-lā-''', '''s-''', '''šl-''', and '''l-''' may be omitted.<br/>

In the diocese of Nanašīrama, in the eparchy of Līlasuṃghāṇa, in Lūṣyambādhi sector, in Latirlārvājuṣi zone, third ''jāṇa'', ninth block, building no. 19, access no. 3, apartment no. 8.

: hūneidauṣa : yūlyahāti ga ūnima : 24 3 l-

Diocese of Nanašīrama, eparchy of Līlasuṃghāṇa, Hūneidauṣa sector, Yūlyahāti street, building no. 24, apartment no. 3.

===Types of dishes, meals, and cooking techniques===

Note that the distinction between ''ltvogūm'' and ''rithoe'' is more about what is cooked than about the cooking; what is made from a dough is a ''rithoe''; what is simply cooked in an oven is ''tvolgūm''. Bread is technically ''rithoe'', but not considered as such.

* ''julta'' — (something) boiled

* ''ltvogūm'' — (something) roasted

* ''māliṭa'' — curry

* ''šværgas'' — (something) fried

* ''yālutsām'' — dessert

 

 

 

All words related to breads are used in the singular when referring to the bread type generically; they however have duals and plurals - e.g. ''bludāt'' "two buns", ''bludai'' "buns".
