Saol
...saol(OE)=soul(E)=alma(sp)=tlalli mana(N)=dyx(R)=d/toxaua(N)=toss(E),
throw out ballast/lastre(sp),=sa/tzaua(N)=saw, old form of sew=tzoma(N)=
tzo/hole/tzotl hand/ma(N), and, ol/olin(N/17 Tonalamatl)=holy(E)=the
holy sawing/sewing. we get a soul when we start weaving, knitting, sewing,
at least that's when the metaphor arrives, and, language Nauatl, too, gets put on the loom and is woven together, spin the strings, clew the yarn.
...caul(E)=woman's close-fitting cap, hairnet; investing membrane, omentum
ome(N)=2, amnion(from amniotic fluid). on delivery the baby may be wrapped in a thin or thick membrane, sometimes covering the entire body or a part, e.g., only the head. the midwife will have to puncture the membrane around the child's nose so s/he can breath, then with a paper rub off the caul= c/saol/aul=saol(OE)=soul(E), being careful to not take away the flesh beneath.
...cale(OFr)=head-covering, but the English word is recorded earlier,=
calli(N/3 Tonalamatl)=being/house.
...births with caul are rare: one in 80k. the caul itself is set aside
to be later sold to sailors(England)who use it as talisman against drowning. the only cauls in use today are helmet liners for sport/military, made of wool for cold weather, or thinner fabric for temperate climes.

Tepetl
...looking for the word, temple, assuming fearlessly that, -ple/-ble(E)=
piloa(N)=spilla(Norse)=spill, i came up with, tempiloa(N)=tentli piloa(N)=
lip/edge spill, not found in Rémi Simeón, the closest form=tempilolli(N)=
small stone/tentetl(N)=lip plug placed slightly below the lower lip.
although Nauatl is an agglutinate language, i could see any tempiloa would
refer to facial adornment and impossible to be simply a reference to what
goes on in temples, although, piloa(N)=spiel(G), a later development in
German.
...there's nothing wrong with testing a Nauatl word with m/n for derivative
words, e.g., tilmatli(N)=tilma(Mex)=til/ma(n)ta(sp)=ma(n)tle(E), and so i
applied (m/n)to tepetl=te(m)pet/l=tempel=temple(E). the mountain, tepe,
is first temple. Tibet and Thebes root back to Tepetl, and don't require
an m/n injection as they are already tributary.
...aldea(sp)=alte/aldea=altepetl(N)=town=atl tepetl(N)=water temple(E).
...interpret(E/verb)=in te(r)p(r)et/l=in tepetl(N)=the temple/mountain.
