oeg : egg
The Illunse word for egg is oeg. Oeg is a rare last name that can be German in origin. The Old English Game (OEG) is a breed of chicken.
The French word for egg is oeuf, which is somewhat similar.
This word is a mixture of the Old English word for egg which is ǽg (which I transliterate to aeg), and the Latin word for egg which is ovum.
The odd OE vowel combination exists in Latin, and it's pronounced like OI.
For Easter, a word for egg. Easter eggs make me smile. There are no Quenya or Sindarin words for egg, so next up more revisions.
