Veyrathi - Astronomy and space terminology
Purpose
This file collects near-standard Veyrathi forms for astronomy, planetology and space travel in the Enari project. The focus is on terms that function in maps, reports, everyday station life, planetological introductions and publicly understandable scientific language.
Working principles
- Where possible, existing roots from
06_Lexikon.mdand12_Wurzelregister.mdwill continue to be used. - Proper names such as Iyath, Saivor, Naar, Seyra and Orun remain stable as names; The technical language primarily develops the generic words around it.
- In the astronomical register,
naarcan mean not only "home world", but more generally also planetary world body. The capitalization marks the proper name Naar. - Saithan high register forms are used primarily for measurement, classification and teaching terms; The naming of specific celestial bodies and space objects usually remains more native and transparent in Veyrathi.

| Zeyth band as an asteroid belt | Zeyth dulen-virel-jorath | technical long form next to the proper name |
| Veyron as a gas giant | Veyron ar varun-draz-naar | descriptive classification |
| Thalos as an ice giant | Thalos ar kelir-draz-naar | descriptive classification |
5. Register note
In normal Veyrathi, concrete celestial bodies are preferred to be referred to via transparent composites rather than via heavy foreign forms. High scientific analysis then switches to Saithan measurement and classification terms, for example in observatories, archives and planetological schools.
The appropriate high register level is under Saithan - Astronomy and Astrophysics. Veyrathi - name and style sheet of the Iyath system is also used for proper names, system style and folk etymological readings.
