Most of the names in the game are left untranslated. Words such as "Kaumo" or "Kiesse" are so old, that no one knows their original meaning, and thus translation is impossible.
In UnReal language, there is no separate word for male and female beings, inehmo refers to both "he" and "she". (This is similar to real Finnish and other Ugrofinnic languages, which lack distinct gender pronouns and only use a general pronoun for individuals or groups.)
