I think I may be at fault here. For some reason, the word [sic] */'ervum/
appears in my pojwI' program. I can find no canon source for the word, and
I do not remember its source. It is certainly not a real word, since we
cannot find an origin in canon. Whatever prompted me to put it in there,
is beyond my memory.
