Toman while led is the lol

• "True men like you men" (song) The Memory of the Dead
• toman: a hillock, a mound of earth; a Persian gold coin
• led .. lol: "red .. rose"
  • Jespersen: An International Language 34: (of Volapük →vollapluck) 'the stem itself must always begin and end with a consonant. Accordingly Academy becomes kadem. R is avoided: fire is fil, and red led. As s is the sign of the plural, no word may end in s: rose is made into lol. As ne is the negative, such a word as necessity is clipped of its initial syllable, and becomes zesüd. Not even proper names get off scott-free: Italy is Täl and England Nelij (j is pronounced sh). Europe is Yulop, and the other continents... are made into Melop, Silop, Fikop and Talop respectively'
