I didn't think of {dikykurfa} which now seems the obvious one.  Thanks,
But, what is {manfykurfa}?  {manf} is not a rafsi.

In any case, what I don't understand is why the gloss in jbovlaste for
{kurfa} is both 'square' and 'four sided shape'.  How can it be 'square'?

For that matter what does vote information 100000 mean?
