emshyr vie (EMM-sher-VY) - good weather

Note that we say 'Moghrey mie' but 'Emshyr vie': 'moghrey' is a masculine word while 'emshyr' is feminine. The 'm' in 'mie (good) changes to 'v' after feminine words. 'Oie vie' ('Goodnight') is another example of this. Whenever we talk of 'emshyr' or 'oie', we should use 'she'. 'Moghrey' is 'he'.
