ath : or
The Illunse word for or is ath. Ath is an uncommon last name. In Scottish Gaelic ath- means the prefix re-, which means again or renew. Ath is a fictional alphabet created for the Crest of the Stars novels by Morioka Hiroyuki. Ath is the name of a city in Belgium.
This word is a mixture of the Old English word for or oþþe or oððe(which I transliterate to oththe) (or; either...or), and the Latin word for or aut (nor, or rather/else; either...or).

And, in my words
ed : and
The Illunse word for and (conjunction) is ed. Ed is a masculine first name, short for Edward, Edgar, Edwin or Edmund. Ed is a last name. In Danish, Norwegian and Swedish ed means oath. In Italian ed means and (used before a vowel instead of e). Ed is the name of cities in Germany, Sweden and Austria. In English ed can be short for edition, editor or education.
This word is a mixture of the Old English word for and which is and (same as Modern English), and the Latin word for and which is et (and, and even; also, even).
Making a small, but very common, word.

If, in my words
sif : if
The Illunse word for if (conjunction) is sif. In Norse mythology Sif is a goddess, the wife of Thor. Sif is an uncommon feminine first name. Sif is an unusual last name.
This word is a mixture of the Old English word for if which is gif (if; provided that, whether, though), and the Latin word for if which is si (if, if only, provided that, whether).
My main computer is still in the shop. The initial news is not good.
