Numerals

Multiplicative forms measure quantities: "X times as much; X-fold; of X parts; double, triple, quadruple". Distributive forms give the sense "X each; by Xes, in sets of X; X by X". There are also collective and iterative forms, not shown here.

Body Parts

The language has a pretty well worked out vocabulary in this area. What I give below is strictly for human bodies; there's often special terminology for talking about the analogous parts of different animals. Body-part terminology shows a lot of irregular plurals (duals, one could argue), and even some odd singular forms where the default is plural/dual. There's a fairly distinct register of "baby speech" which I've included here. The orthography is the sort used in native typography; no distinction of front/back "i" vowels or of vowel length; note that {c, j} = alveopalatal affricates [tS], [dZ].

What bodypart does your conculture think is the seat of emotion? The liver and the heart.

What bodypart does your conculture think is the seat of consciousness? The brain (tarki) in modern times, but in different idiomatic contexts, it can be various other body parts, including the feet.

Indo-Iranian Loanwords On The Bering Strait

See the separate page Indo-Iranian Loans in Kilda

Pimp My Portuguese

The following vocabulary was borrowed from Portuguese (P.) and Spanish (S.) in the second half of the 16th and the 17th century. Several are themselves loanwords from African, South Asian, Southeast Asian, and American languages, but only entered Kilda through Portuguese and more rarely Spanish contacts. As mentioned on CONLANG/ZBB, I'd appreciate input from those knowledgable about the phonetics of early modern Portuguese (or with the topic in general) to advise and correct.

I've included the modern Kilda meaning of the term where it's significantly different from either the archaic or the modern Portuguese sense. Regarding how Kilda phonology would color borrowings, see the main Kilda page, but a few other points: stress is always word-initial unless there's a long vowel in the word, in which case it falls on the first long vowel; accordingly, Portuguese words with non-initial stress were perceived as having long vowels in their stressed syllable. /-m/ is a strongly dispreferred word-final consonant in Kilda. There's no voiced 'hushing' sibilant, /ʒ/ to correspond to the voiceless /ʃ/. /s/ is always [ʃ] before a high front vowel. Kilda voiceless stops are strongly aspirated, more than Portuguese ones; accordingly, (non-initial?) voiceless stops in Portuguese were borrowed as voiced stops in Kilda.
