 Mighty
Etymology
Etymology of creation: from PIE *bʰréh₂tēr - brother. Moved to the idea of sibling in general and then expanded the idea to creche mate, to make it fit the idea of how Mighty young are raised / made. Since Mighty lay eggs, I figured it should also be the word for egg in another gender and put that idea together to finalize the word and expand to the other genders.
Notes
I included egg in the base term because so much of the idea is implied with the base, the fundamental concept behind this word is *that which hatches / will hatch / has hatched.* So even though egg isn't the neuter gender's meaning, I still think it should be part of the base definition.

This is a word that has overlapping cognitive domains, separated by their time relation to hatching. So shed skin is not actually considered the same as brother, as might be implied by gender inflection but brother and sister are considered very minor inflections to Mighty, since sex changes so easily.
