In Karttunen's dictionary huel(i) means "to be able to".   Three entries above, Huel, has "bien" (good) as one of its definitions.

In Sim�on's dictionary, ueli means "con posibilidad", but there's another ueli. This other ueli is four entries earlier, under "uel o ueli".  This other ueli means bien.

My question:  is Karttunen�s huel (bien), the same thing as Sim�on's hueli (which also means bien).  Is that extra letter I, that makes Karttunen's word different from Sim�on's, significant?
Thank you,
Rich
