Re: Meghean word; _aeohas_ "non-existence" (was: Common Orcish Article (Long))

It strikes me that no-one has yet asked HOW _aeohas_ goes about meaning "non-
existence". Knowing the unusual cravings common among the readers of this
list, I thought an explanation may be appreciated anyway.

It's nothing all-too original, really. It's simply the verbal root _eo-_ "to
be" sandwiched between the negative prefix _a-_ the verbal noun ending _-as_
(with the intruding -h- for orthographic/phonetic reasons as explained in
another post); a morpheme-for-morpheme translation into English would
be "unbeing".

The related phrase _eohas ibh_ "all existence" is used to mean,
essentially, "the universe".
