Kélen has eight basic directions as follows:
N = ja élkie
to the N = rú élkie
in the N = sú élkien
the North = lji sóthélkien
these are probably related to the word for ice, but not necessarily.
NE = ja thíñie
to the NE = rú thíñie
in the NE = sú thíñien
the North-East = lji sóththíñien
these are probably related to the word for mountain pass.
NW = ja tárie
to the NW = rú tárie
in the NW = sú tárien
the North-West = lji sóthtárien
these are probably related to the word for rain.
E = ja ánnie
to the E = rú ánnie
in the E = sú ánnien
the East = lji sóthánne
these are definitely from the word for beginning.
W = ja órrie
to the W = rú órrie
in the W = sú órrien
the West = lji sóthórre
these are definitely related to the word for ending.
S = ja sírie
to the S = rú sírie
in the S = sú sírien
the South = lji sóthsírien
these are probably related to the word for dry.
SE = ja látie
to the SE = rú látie
in the SE = sú látaren
the South-East = lji sóthlátaren
these may be related to the word for cliff.
SW = ja háwie
to the SW = rú háwie
in the SW = sú háwien
the South-West = lji sóthháwien
these are probably related to the word for shore
