I was working through the song "Sayonara, But I Love You" with Yoichi Rengiil yesterday.  The song contains the line "Aikel ultil chochid er a Gun Beach me Ypao / rengel a daob altang me smuld e ng diak kudengei."  Yoichi translated "rengel a daob" as the shallow part of a wave after it breaks (and thus, erases the footprints on the beach).  I don't see this documented in tekinged, but perhaps I have this spelled incorrectly.  Is anyone familiar with the phrase and, if so, what is the unpossessed noun?

I got a clarification from Yoichi Rengiil on this.  It should be "rekel a daob."  Rekel = n.poss.3s; rustling sound (of leaves, footsteps, etc.); sound of moving water. From merereek, v.i.redup = make rustling sound

Closing this since rekel is already defined.
