Interesting. A quick search for Tilya turned up a site in Russia
http://www.tilya.sitecity.ru/
and this page of Kurdish hiphop lyrics
http://members01.chello.se/kineem/hiphopakurdi.htm
Not surprisingly, Tirelhat, Ludireo, and Gjarrda didn't turn up anything
interesting.
A bunch of stuff turns up when I search for Azir, the name of the
conreality where many of my languages are spoken. Apparently there was a
Felix Vicq d'Azir who lived in France (1748-1794). Among other things, it
also seems to be a word for a kind of plant called "French lavender" in the
Tarifit language (a Berber language spoken in Morocco, according to the
Ethnologue site).
