This illustrates what I call object anaphora, which you can think of either as abstract nouns or as rather concrete pronouns. Tulpiphoj, for instance, is based on t?p 'ball-shaped object'. The vowel change makes it a big ball; the -l- makes it a hollow ball; the -iph cuts it in half-- thus, a bowl; -oj means that this is the second ball-shaped object we're referring to in this sentence.Elcar wrote: Chun t?lpiph q?l-tulpiphoj tuly-qdunk rapat.

A requests you to put this medium-sized bowl inside the other larger one you'll find on the far right of the second shelf.
D?k is a flat tray-shaped object; d?nk is a thick one-- thus, a shelf; dunk is a big shelf; qdunk is the second shelf.
Elkar?l is concise, at least if you talk about the sort of things that are important to elcari.
