An anagram of "Almea Verduria" is "a viral urea med".
We also have "I'm red lava urea".

Quite a few. Those just caught my eye, because I needed to urinate.Jeos Thegimis wrote:anything with out "urea"?
Care to tell us about the experience? Was the colour yellow, or pale? Was the duration long or short? Did it foam up or just stay there? Did you make a noisy burble-splash into the water, or a dull hiss onto the toilet bowl rim? Did you catch the urine in a glass beaker so you could swish it around and make a medical diagnosis from it like the doctors of medieval and Elizabethan times?Space Dracula wrote: Quite a few.

Don't they still (on earth)? I had my urine examined before a blood test, IIRCShm Jay wrote:Care to tell us about the experience? Was the colour yellow, or pale? Was the duration long or short?

Oh, that makes me wonder if Almean medicine still, or ever, makes use of examining urine.
Well, today they analyze urine specimens for the presence of different chemical compounds, infectious organisms, etc., but as Jay noted, in medieval and Renaissance times some doctors analyzed urine by looking at it--the color, consistency, whether and how it settled into layers if placed in a clear flask--and attempting to deduce all sorts of things about their patient's health from this.Jaaaaaa wrote:Don't they still (on earth)?

Well, not quite. They used it as bleach for white togas.Twpsyn Pentref wrote: Speaking of urine, the ancient Romans washed their clothes in it.

They did everything in or with their horses' fliuds.Jeos Thegimis wrote:didn't the Mongols wash in their horse's urine though? They washed something in it.

Oh, yes, you?re right. Well, Spacey?Rory wrote:Jay, you forgot to ask Spacey how strongly it smelled, if at all. And any details of splash-back or missing the target
I can?t remember the last time I said ?ovary? out loud, let alone ?Fallopian tubes?. I ought to know what the male equivalent of a Fallopian tube is, yet I can?t remember it. Apparently they?re not words in Mark?s usual vocabulary either, for although you can say soa gamerka you can?t say the other words I mentioned, but you can say soa shagati, soa odhi, soa baslevi.con quesa wrote:You know, I don't think that I've said the word "uterus" in over six months.
I wouldn't call a breast an inside part. At least, not in an ideal world.Mercator wrote:My languages have a lot of words for women's insides (and men's, to a lesser extent). Womb, Fallopian tubes, Ovaries, Pregnant, Fetus, Embryo, Placenta, Umbilical Cord, Breast, Nipple, and Breast Milk are all basic, non-compound roots in Andanese and most other conlangs I have, and a lot of them even have more than one noncompound root. Generally, in Andanese, body parts that come in pairs are referred to in pairs by default.

The urethra? Or just simply the "sperm ducts"? I don't think "Fallopian tube" is the proper medical term, strangely enough...Shm Jay wrote:I ought to know what the male equivalent of a Fallopian tube is, yet I can’t remember it.
