A neologism for “space (as a physical dimension)” based on yána “vast, wide”. For example: “space and time” = yáne ar lúme. Paul Strack coined this neologism specifically for Eldamo to replace [ᴺQ.] nairë from the NQW based on naira “vast, wide, empty”, since that adjective based on a probably-abandoned root √ÑGAY.
