  1. By all means, ΝΕΦΕΛΗ: Hyale (ΥΑΛΗ) is derived from ΥΑΛΟΣ, meaning tranluscent stone. The word was used to denote crystal and amber, and later evoved to ΥΑΛΙ (glass) and possibly ΥΕΛΗ (gel). Rhanis (ΡΑΝΙΣ) means drop or trickle. Either of blood or water, depending on how one gets his or her kicks. Psekas (ΨΕΚΑΣ) is related to from the verb ΨΕΚΑΖΩ meaningto spray, or sprinkle. The cryptic inscription "ΕΙΠΕ ΑΥΤΟ ΟΥΧΙ ΨΕΚΑΣ ΑΥΤΟ" was unearthed on an otherwise unmarked tomb, translated by linguistic experts as "say it, dont spray it". Phiale (ΦΙΑΛΗ) is a wide and shallow vessel of glass, used in rituals and invocations - or on a more practical note, cooking Crocale (ΚΡΟΚΑΛΗ) probaby relates to the deep yellow - reddish color of either egg yolk (κροκός) or the crocus/saffron plant (κρόκος) ...add to all the above some... Nephele (ΝΕΦΕΛΗ), derived from ΝΕΦΟΣ (cloud) which in turn is derived from ΝΙΦΗ (snowflake) And you have all the ingredients to make a glorious ambrosia-flavored omelette, yum-yum Later, PAVLVS
