hot



I've kept "varm" as 'hot,' but I think 'cold' deserves a one-syllable root
of its own, so I took "can" from Korean.  Also, this gives faucets V and C
to be labelled.   One disadvantage of the reversal system is that it doesn't
yield opposites that begin with different letters.   Now, with the
directions, I was careful to have 4 different beginning letters:

xam - north (Persian)
sul - south (Portuguese)
duq - east (Cantonese)
vey - west (English, sort of)

Likewise, elevator buttons can be marked b for balko and d for dimko
