I think that's happened to me with Gecko-based browsers before(namely Camino). They never did seem to be as good at text display as WebKit-based browsers.Delthayre wrote:I guess Firefox must be having display issues, because all of the retroflexes are showing up as somewhat oversized. They're shaped like lower case letters, but with upper case proportions.
Parts of it remind me of my own Takela:Maknas wrote:Okay, some parts of this are scarily like my [still-in-the-making] Ņaranis grammar

I didn't think so at first, but... It's certainly one of the longer Almean grammars, along with Verdurian, Axunashin, and Flaidish, and it's probably the longest single page, since the Lexicon is located on the same page as the grammatical sketch, rather than on a separate page, as in several of the other grammars.Matt wrote:Is this the longest Almean grammar to date?
Heh, I had it up for testing, but I wondered if anyone was loading lenani.htm periodically. Well, no problem.So Haleza Grise wrote:lenani is up lenani is up lenani is up - hurray! - I can't believe I'm the first one to notice!
What makes a medial /trg/ so much more difficult than an initial one? If anything I'd kinda expect the "trga" to take an epenthetic vowel instead of *utrga.trga You don?t/didn?t/won?t fall

Some imperatives are unpronounceable even by the facile-tongued Skourenes; in this case an epenthetic -u- may be inserted in P12, as in the last two samples.
