Simple machines

I was doing some research the other day (on Senjecas, of course) and
came upon the word for wedge. I thought it would be good if the
vocabulary had words for all the simple machines. So.....

screw = kjurwos
inclined plane = dejhmos
wedge = dheuvos
wheel/axle = rethos/adzos
lever = vergenvos (lift-stick)
pulley = verethos (lift-wheel)

Screw and wedge can also be verbs: kjurwa and dheuva respectively.
