Voksigid: Word list


This list was the last full list distributed on the Voksigid list, current to Feb. 14, 1992. It had a number of proposed words which would have been adopted officially in the absence of objections, so these can be assumed to be part of the vocabulary as well. Where two words are listed for one meaning, a choice was to have been made by vote of the committee.

Proposed words.
