A neologism coined by Paul Strack in 2018 specifically for Eldamo, inspired by ᴱQ. palasya- “splash, foam” (QL/72) updated to the later root √PHAL(AS), hence derived from primitive ✱phalasya-. The vowels would become e due to i-affection, and the consonant ch due to the sound change whereby medial sy became chy.
