Zokeyrom

Make this word modern.this is definitely NOT, a word pertaining to skyrim or a word with a canon\semi canon root. Don't take my word for anything here but I believe that the root word that was also noted in the meaning was non canon making this word a modern word.

"Modern" is for words such as "car" or "airplane." The word "Zokeyrom" wouldn't be used as casually as "awesome" is in modern English; "that's awesome." Instead it would be reserved for things that are "full of awe;" Alduin zokeyrom suleyk "Alduin's awesome power."

Awesomeness has been around for a while. Paarthurnax, for instance, possesed some degree of awesomeness. The word hasn't been used much until the modern era but it's been a concept for a long time.

Kosil and Zuko both mean 'Inner', but Kosil is Canon and Zuko is Semi-Canon. Is there a specific rule for both of them or are they interchangeable?

The word "Zuko" gets the "Not As Canon As You Could Have Been" Award.

Yay I helped! 

But the removal of Zuko breaks the opposite of inner; Zutir which is defined as outer. So it seems that Zutir would have to be changed because Zuko had the same prefix. I guess changing Zutir to Tirsil would make sense, but it sounds weird IMO.

So after some lengthy discussion, I've remembered the difference between "Kosil" and "Zuko." "Kosil" is actually a compound of "Ko" and "Sil," or "in the soul." So, "kosil vokul," "an inner evil," would actually mean "an evil in the soul."

This limits how "Kosil" can be used. For example, "the inner edge" couldn't use "Kosil;" "the edge in the soul." So, "Zuko" exists as a more general word for "inner" that would be used with inanimate objects and the like. Same goes with "Zutir."

I've added all this to the word notes now so the difference will be clearer from now on.

Added "rely." I also shortened it to "Rivun" to distance it some from "Riiv," "cloth."

What separates this from "nudraan" and "nutiid"?

I'm really just curious, I'm not opposed to having synonyms.

"Nudraan" is the more separate of the three. It simply means "modern," as in "of or pertaining to the present."

"Nu" and "Nutiid" are very close synonyms but "Nutiid" is more of a noun. For example, "Go now" would use "Nu" whereas "Until now / until the present" might use "Nutiid."
