Consider using {bov} “era” for this meaning of "ages".
Sometime in the past, I'd toyed with "how to express middle ages". After googling "middle ages", to find out *when* the middle ages actually was, I came up with "time period between 476 c.e. and 1453 c.e.". So, I thought of saying something like: {qaSchoH tera' DIS loS-Soch-jav, ngugh qaSchoH bov potlh, 'ej qaSchoHDI' tera' DIS wa'-loS-vagh-wej, Dor bovvam potlh} or {qaSchoHDI' tera' DIS loS-Soch-jav, qaSchoH bov potlh, 'ej qaSchoHDI' tera' DIS wa'-loS-vagh-wej, Dor bovvam potlh} And from that point on, resuming the passage by referring to the middle ages as {bov potlh} or {bov qab}, or by any other adjective I'd used in the original description. But in the end, I didn't know, if after all these {qaSchoH}, {qaSchoHDI'}, and {Dor}, the meaning would have indeed become clear to the reader. Of course, if anyone has any ideas on the matter, then, qeylIS knows, I'd like to read them.. ~ khkhhk
