Notes
Not in dictionary. Presumably small compared to hempuu, "throwing stick" (used for hunting).
May be an informal word. Hwir is translated in Mesa Grande dictionary as "whoosh", and 'aa- is a prefix used on instruments. So this word could be literally, "thing that goes whoosh" or "thing you go whoosh with".
