I got it at the IAD sale

I think this is the first of these that I'm doing. I've hit a bit of a lurch in a lot of my research, what with getting individual word decomposition and phrase translation to work properly being, well, rather difficult. As part of working on it, though, I look at a lot of words, a lot of word pieces based on my database (which I'm convinced is full of good, interesting, meaningful data, just in virtue of how it's set up and my sincerest hope that it's the one thing I got right so far).

So yeah, this and some related entries with the decomposition tag are just suggesting that I'm breaking apart words based on things I've encountered in my database, during my experimentation, and some midnight musings about the building-blocks quality Enochian has.

Anyway, let's consider IAD.

Lots of word decomposition

In IAD, there are only a few ways to break it down:

I + A + D
IA + D
I + AD

The easiest way to break it down, given what I know of Enochian, is the middle one. "IA" usually stands as a kind of holiness. Seems pretty evident from the words it's a part of. Consider the following definitions extracted from surviving clusters:

IA:

Root denoting divine essence or sacred authority, forming base for concepts of godhood, justice, and celestial relations.
A bound morpheme marking durative celestial states, specifically encoding perpetuity in governance or sacred succession.
Morpheme marking sacred consecration or idealized states, primarily affixed to nouns denoting ritually significant spaces, materials, or venerated conditions.
Root denoting sacred luminescence, manifesting as celestial fire or light with transformative properties.
Root denoting divine essence or sacred celestial nature, serving as a theological marker in compound formations.
Bound root marking abstract celestial properties, specifically luminosity and divine attributes, when suffixed with -IAN or -IAS.
Root encoding celestial agency, manifesting as divine judgment, sacred utterance, or revelatory knowledge.
Root denoting cyclical ritual yield, specifically manifesting in harvest contexts as a recurring sacred event.
A root denoting celestial or heavenly domains, serving as the semantic core for stratified sacred spaces when combined with elevation-modifying prefixes.
Root denoting supreme divine authority or celestial primacy, manifesting as absolute power (IAIDON), hierarchical apex (IAIDA), or ordained cosmic order (PIAP).

Like I said, pretty clearly "hey look, it's divinity". According to the script in its current state, the definition I get back corroborates this, which is neat I suppose:

Celestial realms comprising the heavens

However, the "D" is the mystery one for me. I haven't given a lot of thought to "D" as a standalone letter and what it could mean. I randomly was thinking about this word before bed, like you do, and realized that while I could explain "IA", "I", and "A", I could not explain "D".

And oh wow, is it a diverse, diverse set of possibilities. We have everything from loins to alchemy (which really aren't too unrelated when you think about it—if you know you know I guess) to comfort.

note: for the rest of these I'll bold the entries that deal with the relevant concept because it's a bit of a mix in each case.

A deictic/demonstrative function marking reference to entities, states, or connections in discourse, encompassing indefinite reference, directed attention, logical connection, and temporal location.
A grammatical particle indicating ordinal sequence or continuation in enumerative contexts, functioning as a sequential marker in Enochian.
A core concept of disturbance that manifests as both an action (vexing) and an existential condition affecting reasoning creatures.
A deictic or existential base morpheme indicating presence, location, or state of being.
A relative pronoun or demonstrative marker introducing relative clauses, expressing 'which,' 'that,' or 'who' in grammatical constructions.
To weave or the act of weaving; a base morpheme that generates weaving-related concepts through morphological derivation.
A semantic marker indicating distinction, differentiation, or separation in various forms—physical, conceptual, or ordinal.
Denoting divine or sacred concepts, particularly those related to God, glory, praise, and hierarchical status within sacred domains.
A divine marker indicating sacred attribution, eternal existence, or divine presence, particularly in religious or spiritual contexts.
A distinct portion, element, or component within a larger whole; specifically applicable to physical parts, material components, or ordinal positions.
A root morpheme encoding concepts of thirdness, intermediate states, or transitional phases across temporal, spatial, and abstract domains.
A deictic or demonstrative marker indicating reference to entities, states, positions, or sequences within a context.
A morpheme denoting sovereignty, divine authority, or dominion, appearing in contexts of rulership, sacred naming, and moral consequence.
Agency or action causing transformation or change of state, whether through creation, destruction, arrangement, or positional succession.
A relativizing and connective morpheme that introduces relative clauses, marks categorical distinctions, and links entities in discourse relationships.
Loins; the lower torso region, particularly the area between the hips and lower abdomen.
A spatial-ordinal marker denoting angular positions or sequential locations within geometric or cosmological frameworks.
A positional or state marker indicating vertical/hierarchical relationships, domains, or states of being or capability.
A root morpheme denoting comfort, solace, or positive emotional support, often appearing in compound forms that extend to gladness and visitation.
A root morpheme relating to dwelling, habitation, or shelter, appearing in various morphological positions while maintaining semantic consistency.
To gather, collect, or receive entities or knowledge; representing the act of bringing together or synthesizing elements.
A foundational element in alchemical processes, specifically relating to transformation, core substances, or sequential stages in chemical operations.
A root morpheme encoding mutual or reciprocal interaction, particularly in contexts of conflict or disturbance.
A core concept relating to alchemical transformation, specifically the philosopher's stone and its constituent elements.

For reference, I've bolded 11/22—so exactly half. Assuming I counted right. It's 1:31am right now, so who knows.

Anyway, from a really, really abstract perspective, the thing that these all have in common are relationship between one thing and another. I've marked in bold the ones that are more explicitly that rather than implicitly that (e.g., "constituent elements" in the last definition is definitely about relationships between things, but it's somewhat implied). If we take this as the final say, IAD becomes "holy relatedness" or "related to holiness", which, while possibly correct, just isn't all that interesting—and I had kind of a fun consideration I want to tease at.

That requires us to break things down even further...

Not all of these (because the clusters are clusters of like things, and ngrams at such a small level are not always going to be used consistently, especially in 16th century constructed languages) are the same, but there's a running theme: a word that means is. "I" is the "to be" of Enochian.

Also, I should note: because of the way negation tends to work in Enochian (the "not" gets bundled into the "is"), there will be a lot of negation rolled into "I" as sort of false positives. That's an imperfection with my database and something I need to sort out. However, it still deals with "is" in that it's just the other side of things—"is not". So I've bolded those as well.

In total: 18/29. More than "D". We're approaching something more consistent.

27/31. Lots and lots. All dealing with location.

Consistently, "A" deals with spatial relation. I would contend that this could be metaphorical because there's a propensity in human language to do things like that. Anyway, so this is the kind of consideration that I'm taking. let me jump right to the point because I don't think there's much to say about "A" other than what I just said.

So if we take I + A + D, what we end up with is "to be/to live" + "in or with" + "parts". This means whenever you read "IAD" in the Enochian keys, while the translation may claim it's referring to God or justice or whatever else, a possible literal decomposition of the word is "to be in (and with) the parts". At first glance, that might sound like gibberish, but I believe there is moral import that can be gleaned from this.

Implications

Let's consider what could be implied about Enochian cosmology were IAD to translate as, when broken down, "living with parts". Parts are parts of a whole, with means the parts are connected, and living implies, well, being alive—and probably uninjured in this case.

When we live with things outside ourselves, we can exist together in many, many ways—some of which result in our or their end of life. To exist with others in a way that all the parts are existing and not being eliminated means that there is harmonious coexistence.

To put it another way: in order for myself and other living creatures to exist as parts of a whole, we both need to continue existing. But what constitutes a "part"? Is it a whole species? Is it an individual—or their individual cells? Because not everything can continue; all living things die, sometimes in order to sustain or even birth other living things.

I think "part" is not bound to one level; we can talk at multiple levels—and each level has its own way of acting in accord with IAD. Given that OIAD is translated not only as "of God" but "of the Just" along with similar notions, and given how we've created a valid decomposition of IAD into living well with other parts of the whole, I think that this is a fair start into exploring the language-implied ethics and ontology of Enochiana.
