The gloss refers to the Axunašin meaning. For Xurnáš and Teôši meanings and grammatical notes, see the lexicons of those languages.
Etymologies are given in [brackets]. [*] indicates a lexical item inherited from proto-Eastern; see the proto-Eastern lexicon for the reconstructed form and meaning. W. = Wede:i; OS = Old Skourene.
See the Xurnese Names document for more geographical names. Names of provinces, rivers, gods, and a few key historical figures are entered here.
Like Latin, Axunašin continued to be written long after it died out as an everyday spoken language, and is used in some contexts even today; the vocabulary has been supplemented with modern geographic and proper names, and artistic and scientific terms. These additions have not been listed in the lexicon. Proper names are generally identical to the Xurnáš equivalent, perhaps with a classicized ending.
About 1160 words are currently listed.
