While driving to Mass this morning, I was thinking about what I had
written earlier this morning, the above.  I realized that I had made a
minor mistake.

-os is the declension for perceivable objects, so 'âros, nut; arîjos,
mast' is correct.

However, -us is the declension for loquent beings, so 'mhéðmhirîjos'
should be 'mhéðmhirîjus.'
