isilmë ilcalassë

in the moon gleaming

The seventeenth line of the Markirya poem (MC/222). The first word is isilmë “moonlight” followed by the active-participle (“-ing”) of the verb ilca- “to gleam” with the locative suffix -ssë (“in”), which modifies the entire phrase, as suggested by Helge Fauskanger (AL/Markirya).

silda-ránar

in the moon gleaming

The sixteenth line of the Oilima Markirya poem (MC/213). The first word is the adjective silda “gleaming” followed by an inflected form ránar of Rána “Moon”. Gilson, Welden, and Hostetter suggest it might be an idiomatic use of the dative (PE16/85), but I think it might be a variant form of the locative: the r-locative.

Decomposition: Broken into its constituent elements, this phrase would be:

> silda-rána-r = “✱gleaming-moon-in”
