==Notes==
* Distinct from ghul (hole, pit -" as in Shayol Ghul), which appears to be physical. Taafle may be reserved for emotional or metaphorical emptiness.
* Similar to [[taatin]], which means "filled" (as in ''sa costra shadar taatin'', "in shadow filled halls"). The shared ''taa-'' root strongly links taafle (verb: fill) with taatin (adjective: filled).
