Snow related vocabulary

The nivukti conlang lexicon is slowly beefing up with new and old words. As it thickens I need to have a proper and efficient way to keep a record and that is by compiling all the coined words with a dictionary. Here are snow related words:

huve [ˈhu.vɛ] n. common register

Snow; a single falling flake or snow flake, light dust, or generic cold crystallization.

huvar [ˈhu.var] n. countable register.

Snows; distinct snowfalls, measurable layers stacked on a surface, or individual blizzards.

huvum [ˈhu.vum] n. collective register.

The winter mantle; the total, unyielding blanket of white snow.

Orve [ˈor.vɛ] n. mythic register.

The Eternal Winter; the very first snowfall that never melts, serving as the foundation of the world.
Etymology: Native Nivukti root. Derived from the old Nivukti root for crystallization. This preserves the ancient unique sound structure of the old lexicon.
