Etymologies
Add new etymologies to 100 old words; add some folk etymologies as well
1. tšazo zša non yawewontxa?
“What have the waves brought you?”
What’s new?
2. karankua iinealeey!
"I don't care about dry bread [ie, crackers]!"
You're crazy and I want no part of it!
[If you understand this reference, you get some ice cream!]
3. kwitxee tsxówa
"she’s punching sharks"
courting something dangerous due to pride or overconfidence
4. eyzmee parintxeaa
"she’s drowning fish"
doing something pointless and wasting time
5. tum zo non kala
"[they are] like land and sea"
they have insurmountable differences
I've added quite a few, but I didn't keep track of how many.
irregular:
zeeyorá - spray
so tsyal zalteey - spit on something
defective:
kxatumeey - go on land: rare in the first person and only used to refer to the recent past.
yoneeya - to be necessary: only used to refer to the present.
lxá - stop: only found in the imperative form.
Perfect pronouns as verbs
1. lošee - taxes; plural of loša "money"
2. bwolilwo'a - a small dog or a pack of small dogs; dual form of bwolilwo "shin"
Add traces of a case system
[remnant from
Proto-Abyssal ]Everything is always a work in progress, but I have completed these:
- created 5 irregular or defective verbs
- added 2 words that have some kind of asymmetry
- antipassive voice
- anticausatives
- experiencer and stimulus forms now make more sense and make use of the under-utilized emotion signifiers
- 5 new idioms!
- Nolwynn now has 4017 words!
