Notes 1) In an example sentence on the VLI site (T'Plana-Hath's Statement on Logic) "with which" is translated as "k'ish" (which makes sense), so I translated "in which" as "svi'ish" (line 2 above). But the dictionary has "which" listed as "if", the word used in the interrogatives lesson. Double checking: "if" is only used as an interogative, correct? 2) Is the sound "ah" considered a consonant or vowel sound? Does one use "eh" or "heh" for "and" after words ending with "ah"? Words Not in Dictionary reservation (used 'land') hunt off camp uncle (dictionary has 'aunt' but is ancient, doesn't have common male/female prefix, so couldn't alter) |
