High Lulani
kala /ˈkʰalə/
saltwater carp: a type of fish, lives in tidal pools on Mala Ptokonoi, considered to be lucky.
I don't know enough about the culture of my proto-language speakers to actually know what they find lucky, but since this sounded like the Toki Pona word for
fish, that's what it became.
I hit my "random word" link for the next word, and the first thing it came up with was
ramaha /ɽəˈmahə/
subtriadic number "a number one less than a multiple of three". It was strange to me that English has
odd and
even, meaning "multiple of two" and "not a multiple of two", but nothing for higher numbers. I don't expect anyone to need a word like this, so a better choice might be:
Next word:
tapucijja /ˌtʰapʰʉˈcʰiɟʱːə/

tapu to enjoy +

Is this word morphologically complex or do the Lulani have a basic root word for "subtriadic number"?

In the Sataw lexicon I do have words for

rain +
release and
krasim:
alcoholic beverage made from pickled condiments’. The word for alcohol is strangely lacking, so here it is:
tafusisa [tə̥ˈfusʊˌsa]:

It's a basic word. The language is a conlang in-universe, created by a relatively advanced culture, which gives me the excuse I need to make monomorphemic words with fancy meanings. I had a word for
oganesson (element 118) before IUPAC did, mostly because I couldn't see myself going to the effort that
Zomp has.
