(qurgh, 9/16/2016):  We asked for "air" as in the stuff around us that can be put into tanks. We got {rewve'} as the common term and {lay} as a technical term. We were not told the difference. 

(qep'a' 2016 via qurgh):  It would be odd to say {lay vItlhuH} for "I breathe air", but it would be understood.

N.B. Do not confuse {rewve'} with {rewbe'} "citizen".
