butla : bottle
The Illunse word for bottle is butla. In Polish butla means cylinder, tank, large bottle. Butla is a rare last name.
This word is a mixture of the Old English word for bottle bytt (bottle, flagon, cask), and the Latin word for bottle which is ampulla (bottle, jar, flask for holding liquids).
I made my Illunse word close to the Modern English word bottle, and I did it fairly, using only the letters I had available. A valid mix of Old English and Latin.
I like that this word is close to the word bulter. The butler in a large household is the servant in charge of the dining room, wine cellar, and pantry. The butler handles the bottled beverages.
