Võlvi (Võlv)
Vault, arch. Name related to the one-time concrete ‘cellar’ or underground storage facility of Keldrimäe.
Veski (Veski)
Mill: See on vesi tema veskile: that’s grist (in this case water) to his mill. This is a contraction of earlier vesikivi, from vesi + kivi (see Vee + Kivi). If prefixed by käsi (hand), it becomes ‘quern’, and given language’s tendency to shorten common words, this was probably the original meaning.
