This is an incomplete list of known words and word roots for Isλǫtaλao. This language is a posteriori and as such, all words are regularly derived from the parent language, in this case, Latin. This means that any word can be created on a whim from the sound changes listed on the page linked from the main page. The list below contains a smattering of examples to demonstrate the orthography as well as give a feel for the look of the language. (In all cases, the original Latin word is listed as well.)
If a Latin word is listed in quotation marks, that signifies that the form was invented from some combination of real Latin words and didn't actually exist in the language.
