Notes

1. afx = affix, either a prefix or a suffix added to a root, e.g., m̃e̋ha, t.v. wedge + lo, means suffix = m̃e̋hlo, keystone, dowel, cotter pin.
2. cpd = a compound of two or more roots, e.g., a̋a̋me, flowing water + tűlo, tube = aamtűlo, aqueduct.
3. drv = a word derived from a root, e.g., te̋ro, room, chamber, < te̋ra, make room.
4. pol = a word with a different, but related sense to an original word, e.g., sa̋iro, merlon < sa̋ira, t.v. project.
5. These words are not numbered, as only original roots are numbered.
6. Words in red indicate an object that did not exist in Sefdaania.
7. There are 100 root words (lemmata) of which 15 are verbs and none are adjectives which can be treated as stative verbs. Thus, 15 percent of the vocabulary is verbs.
