Etymology
Etymology of Creation:I wanted three to resemble finger, kʰɛRɓɑ, and looking through the zompist list of numbers, I find ghurban as the mongol word for three. Another site gives it as gurvan. Which I could see the begining of both being derived from kʰɛR, the question becomes ban, just adding an n, v, which I think I would change to theta. kʰɛRθɑ. But we’ve got the Egg sound in both the other numbers, so it seems like it would be A instead of ah. kʰɛRθe. Classic armenian has erekh. So we could go with kʰɛRθegʰ, kʰɛRθekʰ (which gives a good feeling of completeness), or kʰɛRθer which would resemble Kether (which has its own spiritual designation. I think I don’t want Kether, that’s better for 13 or something like that. I feel kʰɛRθekʰ is the way to go, since I’m going for the idea of finger as a full three knuckles.

Since I wanted it to represent a season as well, I looked into our own word for spring, and found it related to rise, before, and early. So, since I couldn’t match it with anything else, I just ran with that.
