I’m doing Lexember again and unlike before I’m actually way ahead! My focus this year was using the various derivation affixes and adding some essential words. This is going to be a long entry, so cut time!
The affixes:
Entry:
-myla-
Gloss:
medium for doing
Placement:
Infixes after first syllable
Derivation:
mywa, obsolete word for liquid
Entry:
-kal- / -kalii-
Gloss:
to undo, to reverse (un-, de-)
Placement:
Infixed after the first vowel
Irregularity:
Noun – Type 2
Compare with
-nalak-, -miir-
Notes: The form -kal- separates long vowels or dipththongs, while -kalii- is used when it will be followed by a consonant. Paucals and plurals are Type 2 irregulars and take the form -kkal- / -kkalii-.
Entry:
miir(a)-
Gloss:
to cause to, to exchange
Placement:
Infixes after the first vowel
Derivation:
shares derivation with ŋiitla
Compare with
-zoɯr-, -kalii-, -nalak-
Notes: The form -miir- is used if it will form a string of three vowels. Paucals and plurals are Type 3 irregulars and take the form -miimir(a)-, -mimir(a)-.
Entry:
-zoɯr-
Gloss:
noun result from an action. (Rare)
Placement:
Infixes after the first syllable
Derivation:
zotɯir (after, next, result)
Compare with
-nalak-, -miir-
Entry:
-nala-, -nalak-
Gloss:
consequent action, action that is a result of, action with focus
Placement:
Infixes after the first vowel
Compare:
-zoɯr-, -miir-
Notes:-nala- used if would -nalak- would result in three consonants in a row
The Lexemes
I don’t have them all done yet, but here are the ones that are.
