in spalsana everything gets two additional names, a 'roar name' and a 'balsa name'. Balsa names are like Entanglement usernames, and provide a sort of category from the beyondworld. A roar name is like "Aorexila" or "Yayathgai".

The utility of the balsa name is to gloss it as an alien category: you might encounter something else with the same balsa name, eventually. I was thinking about D'Ni style and methods for building in acknowledgement of semantic incompleteness in categorizations

And, I think in (what I've been calling) spalsana: this is just a low fidelity version of whatever it is we heard on that radio dial (cueing earlier tweets).
