bel - be pleased
belHa' - be displeased
belHa'wI' - one who is displeased
But look at the type 4 verb suffix.
belHa'moH - cause to be displeased
belHa'moHwI' - thing that causes displeasure, thing that displeases
Note that the mere juxtaposition of words doesn't necesarily give them the
relationship you wanted them to have.
janlI' belHa'moHwI' means something like "The displeasurer of your device"
It might be a component, perhaps.
