No, dor is a noun, a bit like ”craving” or ”desire”, but it's untranslatable if the list of untranslatable words under one of the lessons is correct.

even closer would be:
To me, it is pain from them
dor is related to Latin dolus = trickery, but also to French deuil = grief, and thus also somehow to Latin dolor = pain and English indolent (= "not feeling the kick") https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dolus#Latin

i see that i have difficulty in knowing whether "EI" means " THEY" or "SHE" if there is no verb.
