Wede:i questions, vocabulary

Post by Neek »

Another stupid question from Nikolai:

I have a certain place in my heart for this language, Wede:i (maybe because it's the most ancient, recorded language on Almea). Anyways, I have a few questions about smudging the lines of word usage.

If s'in is 'ow,' is S'in s'insaze (Pain don't hurt)?

And if naka is hemp, is nakeningsa (I get high) or even, nakeniltsaz'u (Wanna get high)? :mrgreen:

Heh. Your morphology is fine... Almean hemp, however, isn't hallucinogenic. There's a related herb (V. panf?y) that is; but I don't know its Wede:i name. I'll have to work on this; every culture needs a few drugs. :)

Thanks. I was thinking that hemp was in reference to the non-intoxicant, but I couldn't resist simple-minded pothead humor anyway. For words, I can think of a few....ri:s'er, merije:n...:mrgreen: (speaking of simple-minded pothead humor)
