This lexicon consists primarily of words introduced in the grammar
sketch, as well as some words of
interest derived from them. The lexicon is organized on main entries based
on the roots (C_C),. particles and prepositions (CCv) and
monosyllable words
with no obvious root form (CvC); these are arranged alphabetically
by CC pattern, ignoring any vowels. Within these main entries, basic
derived words are filed in alphabetical order by the part-of-speech
vowel. Words derived from these entries by infixation follow their
base word, in simple alphabetic order. Words formed by prefixation are
listed under the main entry for the first term in the word, and then
filed according to the principles described above.b ch d D dh DH f gh h hw H j k kh l m n - ? Eng-Borg Back
