| Soapboy level: catching candy etc --> extra lives etc, but catching orange --> death. (No, Fruit Ninja did not inspire this. If anything its much more similar to an obscure game from the mid 1990s where most fruits are good for you but strawberries kill you.)

| ====Pabappa /ts/ and /ps/====
| |
| The [[Pabappa]] sound change /tʷ/ > /p/ could have caused much /tʷs/ to go to /ps/, but it would be recorded in the dictionary as /ts/ because I was not planning at the time to have Pabappa preserve distinct labialized forms of consonants long enough for the shift to take place. However, going through the entire dictionary I could not find a single example of /ts/ coming from an earlier /tʷs/ (which would have in turn come from the sequence /tus/ in [[Babakiam]]). Therefore, I have made no changes to the dictionary.

| |

| |
| Khulls has only 4 noun declensions. Work on gold language some more. Gold phonology is not unnatural anymore than japanese is.
| |
| :The inchoative possessive is '''-p-''' attached to the accusative of the noun ... which is equivalent to attaching ''-pp-'' to the oblique. It generally takes "recent past" meaning. THus, e.g. '''nobelliappo''' = "I (just) got ice cream!"
| |
| ::Consider making this -pw-/-ppw- instead, as it is from ''pys''. (This actually originated as an idea for Pabappa.) Inchoative may be the wrong word. Perfective? Note that despite using the accusative, the verb marker is intransitive. It could be considered to be an echo verb marker?
| |
|
| |
| Make the word for BED "I return (to)". Thus neither LABAL nor LABWAŽA is correct (think of possessive fos)

|
| |
| * remember the -mn- & -pt- case system ... could it be extended to words like '''potiam''' "lollipop" that are not case marked? e.g. the accusative would be '''potamnap''' instead of '''potiap'''. One disadvantage of this idea is that with the current system, the "free" and "possessed" forms often line up, whereas this change would affect only the free forms since the possessed forms never begin with a case marker.

| *gila may gain a 5th tone from khulls loans
| |
|
| |
| *get rid of all Pabappa words for people that ''begin'' with '''ta-''', even if it is originally from ''tae''. The Pabaps would correctly see this as redundant with the suffix -ta because it is no longer polysemous. Consider using ''po-'' (from ''pyba'') because it 1) ends in a vowel, 2) is monosyllabic and therefore "expected to be polysemous anyway". note, it could be pu- instead depending on when the sound changes stopped.

| Associative verbs
| |
| :*-s(a) after animates to show independent action, e.g. '''polapufosa''' "my cat" (subj, acting independently) takes 3rd person verbs whereas '''polapufo''' (my cat, acting with my assistance) uses 1st person verbs.

|
| |
| * According to this view, endings and stems could all be underlyingly accented or not, the leftmost underlying accent surfaced, and the words with no underlying accent were accented by default on the leftmost syllable. (PIE accent)
| |
|
| |
| *ancient Greek used middle voice as causative.
| |
|
| |
| * in Meskwaki (an Algonquian language), verbs inflect for both subject and object, but agreement markers do not have inherent values for these. Rather, a third marker, the direct or inverse marker, indicates the proper interpretation: ne-wa:pam-e:-w-a [1-look.at-DIR-3-3Sg] "I am looking at him", but ne-wa:pam-ekw-w-a [1-look.at-INV-3-3Sg] "He is looking at me".
| |
|
| |
| *The dative is etymologically a verb, meaning "because I/you/they wanted". Possibly use the Bābā verb ''kusi'', which would end up as just pwom/pwem/pwam in Poswa if it was assumed to have irregularly behaved as if it were ''*kusa'' (some common verb stems ending in -i did this).
| |
| :*That is, ''kusa babibim >> kyšem >> pyšem >> pwem''.
| |
|
| |
| *'''pumblwessobefo''' "I just made you laugh again"
| |
|
| |
| *I just found almost 400 "free" words on the deep blue section of the dialects page. These are words that have etymologies but whose meanings are duplicates of other words and would not be expected to have survived. These can be thus used for missing concepts in modern Poswa and Pabappa.
| |
|
| |
| *The shock of the temperature of the cone of the fire of the burning of the fuel of the ship
| |
|
| |
| *''pebabem'' could substitute for just ''bem'' meaning handheld object. Etymology unknown, though, appears in only one Poswa word, so may have a different meaning. Likely analysis is ''pe'' "hand; to grasp by surrounding" + ''babem'' "in the hand".
| |
| :*Most likely reflex would be ''-fum'', which would become ''-pum'' in wet syllables. However, if this word was originally a standalone morpheme, it would be ''-pium'', which would lead to much less phonological collision. Thus the word for lollipop could be '''potiampium''' (though ''potiam'' would still be the word for lickable candy in general) and the word for cane could be '''babampium''' instead of ''babambum'', which resembles a plural.

|

|
| |
| Inchoative possessive -bibu- (which is equivalentto bib) and cessative possessive ive
| |
|
| |
| The inchoative may be šwu instead, e.g. '''blempwi''' "I got a bottle". Or the bib co u ld be padding for the swu . Can also be used for verbs like "teethe" (wiršwu?)
| |
|
| |
| ====HUGE ERROR IN PABAPPA DICTIOANRY!!!!!!!====
| |
| Almost ALL /sp/ in Pabappa should be /pp/!!!!! It came from the earlier cluster /sš/, but in the dictionary i forgot to change this to /šš/! The only exceptions are words like '''pasper''' "specimen, sample" where it comes from an earlier /səpp/ and words like '''blespa''' "conversation, dialogue" where it comes from an earlier /spr/
| |
|
| |
| This is "bad" in the sense that the way I originally conceived the language no longer makes sense. However the change itself makes sense, since it aligns with the behavior of other consonants.
| |
|
| |
| ===NOTEs3===
| |
| Remember the -pt- -mn- case markers. Sumerian allows these.
| |
|
| |
| Poswa '''pepa''' "room" ----> '''pf-''' in possessive syncope. Pabappa '''beba''' stays. Thus e.g. Poswa '''sypfom''' "in my bedroom" but Pabappa '''pepubrebibam''' (sic).
| |
|
| |
| Pios is glossed as WHEN. But how would I say WHOSE? Also consider bubumģpum alternation.
| |
|
| |
| "pul" verbs ... pulma could be one of them

|
| |
| EQUATIVE CASE and DIRECTIVE CASE. in sumerian, " The moving of a constituent towards the beginning of the phrase may be a way to highlight it,[55] as may the addition of the copula to it." (Wikipedia)
| |
|
| |
| The ''inabilitative '' mood is the negative of the habilitative. It is paf/taf/af whereas the habilitative is pw/tw/w. Thus e.g. '''vwampafwabo''' "I can't eat you." It could be analyzed as an infix of -af- on the habilitative.
| |
|
| |
| Also, the -ep- infix can rescue some fos of the habilitative from sound collisions.
| |
|
| |
| ====SABER vs CONOCER====
| |
| Also, remember to ditstinguish SABER vs CONOCER. Poswa's CONOCER verb is '''biam''' (from Babakiam ''bi ŋabibam'')
| |
| :Note, this is prtobably only due to analogy. it would otherwise more likely be ''bi ŋaibam'', without the extra ''-b-''. This would produce the final form '''biaebam''', with two less contractions even though the original starting point was a shorter word.
| |
|
| |
| :''' Biaebambabo.'''
| |
| ::I know you.
| |
|
| |
| ... what is the far more common SABER verb?
| |
| If WAEMA
| |
|
| |
| :''' Basapiepo ''waevabo''! '''
| |
| ::''I know'' the answer!
| |
|
| |
| :'''Waevefi!'''
| |
| ::I knew it!
| |
|
| |
| If MIPU (< ''mipiu'')
| |
| :''' Basapiepo ''mupabo''!'''
| |
| ::''I know'' the answer!
| |
|
| |
| :'''Mupefi!'''
| |
| ::I knew it!
| |
|
| |
| ;NOTE, UP ABOVE IS BAD BECAUSE U>R BEFORE ER>U.
| |
|
| |
| Could also use PEPPEMIP or just PEPPE. Peppmip is shorter as conjugation than bare: '''peppempwafo!''' Etc. Possibly /peppembwafo/. It would not matter whether the -mip- part is sound-changed to -mep- or not since the vowel is automatically syncoped in both cases.
| |
|
| |
| *Given that Poswa has just '''šifo''' for "I dont know", it would be odd for the word meaning "know" to be 3 syllables. going with MIPU is prob' a better choice. It might show up either as '''mipeb''' or '''mipu''' (which would behave as if ''mipir-'') depending on at which point the stem was hardened.
| |
|
| |
| I verb my cat = intransitive? Would solve 4th person problem.
| |
| :if so, only when attached to object as one word, not when separate.
| |
|
| |
| ===things to do (jan 2017)===
| |
|
| |
| Sakhi has as most common consonants... t s n l. Thus very boring. Khulls has p kw qw etc.
| |
|
| |
| syllable splitting allows initial ps- but not ts-. this could mean that all /ts/ > /t/ unconditionally except in transparant compounds.
| |
|
| |
| Khulls has /ṗ/ and /ṭ/ in nearly mutually exclusive environments. One of the "weird" daughters could merge /ṗ/ and /ṭ/ instead of merging /d/ and /ṭ/.
