We are having a great night! Lots of good changes to Timlan!
We have changed all the nasty post and pre fixes, so that they conform to fonti (always).
The new list is as follows.
Prefixes:
- soho - replaces soh, denotes plural
- coko - replaces cook, denotes a question
- naha - replaces nah, denotes negation
- wuhi - new unknown system, denotes an unknown
- peve - indicates a preposition
- ceve - indicates a conjunction
- rela - indicates a relative clause (on the verb)
Postfixes:
- ah - indicates descriptive
- eta - replaces tea, indicates quantative
- ami - replaces mai, indicates posessive
- elem - generic tense
- elet - imperative tense
- eht - present tense
- oht - past tense
- aht - future tense
The new conjunction and prepostiion pre-fixes conserve clarity of syntax without knowledge of vocab. If a preposition happens to have a tense denoting postfix, this represents a short hand of the verbiq(to be), eg:
peveinaf /!France!/ iqeht setuh ei
P O V O S
becomes:
peveinafeht /!France!/ ei
P (V) O S
The introduction of these new prefixes make the usage ofelemfor convaying prepositions and conjunctions redundant, and flawed, so don't use it unless as explained a bit above. elemnow does just indicate the generic tense.
Enjoy
