This list compiles the most widely-accepted etymologies of notable places on the Trihhimerein Peninsula.
G
Gollia
Of the root riyyed (شࢴببعخ, meaning farmer); riyyed was Ledonicized as rifus, which was borrowed into Middle Saxender as rufas (ντεψγ). Later Monticized as ghuficci, and after the Montic Vowel Shift became gholicci. After this it was Gollicized as Golls, at which point the Golls began to refer to themselves by this. Later borrowed into Early Modern English, and was shifted into Gollia.
H
Heldervin
Derived from Late Ledonian Heldervinia, built from Heldia and -ervinia. Heldia was reborrowed from the Gollic héldun. This was derived from Middle Ledonian reldus, which in turn came from Thorntongue reold (red). Reold is linguistically similar to reolda, which meant farmer; reolda was eventually dropped. This term was borrowed from the Montic ricci, borrowed from Old Saxender reos (νμπγ). Reos was a Saxenization of Old Araqese riyyed (شࢴببعخ).
S
Searenland
Derived from the same root as Heldervin and Gollia, diverged from rifus after a misspelling by the Ledonian king, becoming sufir. Remained sufir because, as the classical historian Lacitius Marcielus said, "the erronous king's mistake was so shocking and amusing that the common folk refused to spell it as rifus." Later evolved into the Middle Ledonian sufirius. Was borrowed into Early Searic as searus, after translators incorrectly mistranslated it as meaning "kings", later searen in Middle Searic; the Searens began referring to themselves by this term. Later borrowed into Early Modern English in the preserved form, and -land was later added to refer to the province.
T
Trihhimerein Peninsula
Ultimately derived from Old Araqese girrn (ڃࢴششي). This was corrupted by the Saxenders into ebihémos (Σβμηζξπγ), which was then borrowed into Middle Ledonian as trihimicus, which evolved into Late Ledonian trihimerius. Middle English then borrowed this as trihhimeries; it was now that the Peninsula was refered to by this. Later the final ⟨i⟩ and ⟨e⟩ were reversed and the ⟨s⟩ was replaced with an ⟨n⟩.
Tuujarnia
Originating from Old Saxender eskamos (μγκθξπγ), meaning "friends". Eskamos was Toleratized as Esuma, and after the Toleratoan Vowel Shift became Isaña. This then was Ledonicized as Tisania. and evolved into the Late Ledonian word tuarnia, which was later borrowed into Middle Tavic as tułarnskya. Later Anglicized as Tujarnia; In Early Modern English the additional ⟨u⟩ was added.
