Been second guessing myself a bit while updating my wordlist, so I might be
stretching things a bit far. But one sounds like sewage backwards and the
other could either be like sludge/slug backwards, or goulish forwards.

As nIqolay Q pointed out in another message, {jIyweS} is "g" + "loss". As for {ghu'lIS}, like nIqolay Q, I also think it's somehow related to {natlIS} ("[last but] not least"), but it's not clear what the {ghu'} part is.
