tovon
adjective. lowlying, deep, low
An adjective meaning “lowlying, deep, low” derived from primitive ᴹ✶tubnā (Ety/STAB). The [[ilk|short [u] became [o] before the final [a]]], while the [[ilk|[b] spirantalized to [v] after a vowel]], with the [[ilk|[n] becoming syllabic and developing into [-on]]] after it became final. These developments were all suggested by Helge Fauskanger (AL-Ilkorin/tovon).
