Notes

1. cpd = a compound of two or more roots, e.g., oṡőőre, falcon + ve̋e̋ðra, hunt = óṡoorve̋e̋ðra, falconry.
2. derv = a word derived from a root, e.g., k̬a̋la, i.v. whale < k̬a̋le, whale.
3. These words are not numbered, as only original roots are numbered.
4. There are 17 root words (lemmata) of which three are verbs and none are adjectives which can be treated as stative verbs. Thus 18 percent of the vocabulary is verbs.
