Yeah most of these words can be broken down into different parts, ;like you said balmora is stonewood but notice in bal isra it is row of stones, stone is in both and so is bal so yeah.

Vvardenfell was used to describe the area immediately surrounding Red Mountain, but has come to mean the entire island that the volcano resides on, along with Sheogorad and the Zafirbel Bay.

Thats where sadrith mora and a whole bunch of other telvanni islands are. It's is on the east side of the map.
By the way i belive this post belongs in the morrowind lore section so if you could move it there someone.

well then, mister linguist man, would the telvanni strongholds all have tel in their name because they are telvanni? or does that mean something different too? oh, and the prefix on daedra is latin, or something, because demon used to be DAEmon. so what does that letter grouping mean?

Dae -----> evil
mon -----> spirit
For instance monsignor is a spiritual person; monastery is a place for spiritual people.
