I will, when I figure it out for myself..... I find that when start working on grammar that I need more words....but when I start on vocabulary I find that I need to flesh out the grammar....vicious circle.Curan Roshac wrote:I was just noting its similiarity to the English (but, last I checked, Latin derived) word and its apparent German-ness.

tuniilu; [tu.ni:.4u] a biological male that is a woman [including, but not limited to, being passive in bed, and referring to himself using the feminine gender]. Gender is strongly dual for most Ieseleu cultures, even if it's not percieved to stem from sex.vampireshark wrote:next: a man who acts effeminately, particularly in a relationship involving two men
Conversely
tikeu: [ti.k{u] 1 a biological female that is a man. | 2 something that can prick, stab or impale you without you suspecting it, like a thorn hidden within the bushes*
next: for people to get together for the sole purpose of enjoying each other's company, to party.
(* I just noticed that the Ieseleu have inherited my love for sexual jokes... I guess I let them, since I made them to have a very low level of sexual taboo [in case you're wondering, talking about certain feelings is the big taboo, not talking about sex; 'nice boobs/nice ass/nice bulge in your pants' is a perfectly polite compliment... but asking 'are you sad' is definitely not a civil thing to ask])

Nothing wrong with that. I've designed it so that the Glaagh are very free in a sexual manner, and asking if one is anything less than ecstatic about their life is a major taboo.Torco wrote:(* I just noticed that the Ieseleu have inherited my love for sexual jokes...
