A neologism for “amethyst” coined by Valerie on 2022-05-12 in the Vinyë Lambengolmor Discord Server (VLDS), a combination of [ᴱQ.] miru “wine” and mírë “jewel”. At the time Valerie coined this word, Helge Fauskanger’s neologism ᴺQ. helissar was mislabeled “hyacinth” rather than “amethyst”. After I discovered my mistake, I started recommending Fauskanger’s older neologism rather than Valerie’s.
