How about a well that spits usuable stuff out if you put a crystal into it?

10 Ruby crystals = Sparkling ruby

10 Diamond crystals = Frozen tear

10 Emerald crystals = Perfectly formed emerald

The well should be named: Niraga

   @ ARANGOL, good job attaching names to things, they all sound like they belong there. (IMHO)  :thumbup:
   
Ok I tried to put this together Dictionary style. If anyone has ideas for meanings, I will add them as we go along.
I have tried to add a few underwater words, but we can use many more. I guess underwater they would use lots of clicking sounds and high pitched sounds much like a dolphin or whale as Inca said earlier.
Let me know what you guys think, and I will keep working on smaller words and water and air words as well.

Well, good moving, friends :D
Next thought of mine: i think that klyros language contains generally SHORT WORDS or words with simple syllables (ba-ku, sear-ban), because (imho) underwater and in flight nobody understand if they start to scream long complex words. Words short and simple as scream, exhalation, shot. So, because of this i dislike words like: Gerhanadion, Hapankorppu, klesstrontoryen,klesstronptarto, xossdoronyan, Ptarptarelyght,  etc.
Long words are surely prestented in Kly-language, but they are rare.

Next, i think many of unvoiced syllables (L, M, H, F, N...) are rare in use too. And cause of it the same - they are very un-hearing in those conditions... May be i'm wrong, correct me.

Some words sounds like they taken from Latin or Elven language: erfiie suun, iniu arbunknn, Inundium, Ialnor, Iniuor.

Ptarvyon River - good, but i think two unvowels in the beginning brakes the pronunciation of whole word. I suggest to delete one of'em--> like Tarvyon or something. ---> How then city will be called - Ontarvyon? :D

If you agree with my comments, just don't erase "wrong" names--> try to modify them.

I agree Inca, the klyro's would not use a lot of multi sylable words. I was trying to go for a more majestic word, or powerfull. For every day language, i agree most words will be one to 2 sylables. There can be however non Krylon name as you have said before, these can based on either the language of the race that found it or named by Laanx or Talad.
Here is what i was thinking in regards to the "PT" found in many of my sugested Krylon words. I hope i can explain this right. Since the Klyro's can speak in and out of water, i think they would have developed a distinct way of speach after hundres of years of development. With a water tight mouth, i believe whenever they open it they would make a poping sound " P ". This sound would be heard in most of thier spoken language. The spelling of such words were writen down by other races listening to the Klyro's and trying to match the way they sound. So i believe there should be much more abrupt letter paterns to truly match the sound of the Klyro's spoken word.

This is just my way of looking at it, but whatever you decide is good for me  :)
sory for any spelling errors :-[

Good idea, mate. I think poppong sounds should be more frequent, also they would sound more like the african which, more then anyone in the world, are nomads so that would fit in to the picture.
Let's see, followed by "gulp" and "cough"? ;)

OK, thanks for the advise everyone, I'll go trough my list and modify those who are COMPLETELY wrong.

@LARAGORN: Thanks for putting them in order. But I see names that aren't in my list so I'll try to add them too.

@Inca: That was very good advise, thanks.

@Baldur: Poppong?

If you mean a certain language with "pop" sounds then yes.

Hmm Laragorn I think it's not good to have 2 lists so I think we should merge our lists somehow.
Everyone: What is the best way to have a list, the dictionary style or the one with different groups.
It's not a competition on who's list is best, I think it's just better to do a good list that people can read in, not to have 2 separate lists.
What do you think?
Of course we could have this kind of list and just update them both.

I could remove the names from my list as they are added to yours. Mine can be for undefined words and yours for defined. That way there will be no double lists.
 The words and definitions we are still debating will be left on the dictionary style list, and the agreed upon words will go on the grouped list.

If you like this idea let me know  :D

About List features: i think that list with different specified groups is more usefull, but inside groups it can be in Dictionary style for better order. Also, try to distinguish (bold font) those words which are most of us like and accepted (baku, searban, choria...)(may be just words, not descriptions).
I agree with Laragorn: first Arangol's List can be An Approved Names List (even for 70% approved words),so the Laragorn's one will be Names-In-Developing List (with logic Dictionary style). The problem i see that we have small activity in this thread (except you, friends). If so, you must not affraid to approve the best names by yourself. I'll help you as much as i can.

Next, i will itemize names i like from each List (# - means i don't like description):
ARANGOL'S LIST:

Ergain, Baku, Kryptaro (#, big swamp tree), Rangoroi, Kleor (#, male name), Shegenriz (#, sharp weapon), Searban (#, katamaran), Trellta, Astu (may be female name too), Choria, Eptar's point (may be Eptar's Crag), Pitaro (male name), Mad Dancing Searban,

Suggest to modify: Alhava, Girahna, Irgon, Xalkaro, Eplytaro (#, surname), Niraga , Eopt (may be merchant name too), Cestergon, Shazzer (may be big battle ship too), Eklato Bay, Klypher Falls, Korian (too similar to Choria), Klyhria (#, female name).

hmm, Arangol, clear your list from similar words (like Ergain-Argoin-Irgon; Girahna-Gerhana).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LARAGORN LIST:
Bax (strong klyros-male name), Ekeelatojujusmee (#, if it's a rum then call it just "Ekeel"),Extar and Extara (twins: sister and brother), Esorta (lance or klyros clothes (shirt)), Esquil (dish-food), Exy (cute girl's name :), Hapank (fish-farmer name),Kloto Pleptaryen (someone famous klyros), Optar (male name), Orgast (big shark), Pteo fish, Qeron (klyros-hunter name), Stax (animal), Wiargoa, Wiargona.

Suggest to modify: Axptaro->Axaro(male name), Es->Ezz (male\female name), Gerdion.

And don't forget that your main task to find better names for Klyros City, and not to invent klyros language. I think it's important. Minetus, can you post a new map (not 3d model) here? Guys, if you make quick plan of town with streets, key points (Eptar's point, tavern) on this map - things will advanced much further.
