Naturally, the Terps understand biology well enough to understand the appropriate place for the seat of emotion and consciousness (the brain). _________________

As for the other questions - they are much like us, technologically and scientifically advanced, so they know the true function of each organ, but much like us, although they know the true situation, there still remain certain cultural attachments to organs. The heart and guts are the home of the emotions - the heart beats faster with just about any intense emotion, and when it gets even more intense, the stomach aches. Consciousness was associated with the eyes, although it then became associated with the brain because people who had lost their eyes still reported being conscious - the brain was the obvious choice, being behind the eyes, and able to see through them.

Heh! This is probably the only language that has three words for urethral meatus.
But what exactly is the tear gland? I tried looking it up at WP but I couldn't understnad the picture. And what is meant with bottom and top side? Is it supposed to be the lower and upper half of the body?

My small dictionary has some basic body parts but nothing specific like artery.
ANKLE = TĀMA ARM = RŌTA BLOOD = PĀTA CHEST = ShŌMĀ ELBOW = JeĪTŌ

Quote:
Does Helleran use any of these terms, or reduced forms of them, as affixes?
Helleran has affixes for different bodyparts or body materials/substances to create neologisms (although I must work on them).
Quote: Or as verbs or adjectives or prepositions or conjunctions or pronouns?
Some verbs are derived from the words for heart, skin, ear, etc. Many bodypart names have adjectival forms.
Quote: What bodypart does the Megadelanian civilization think is the seat of life?
Not a bodypart but a microscopic life-form present in all cells.
Quote: What bodypart does the Megadelanian civilization think is the seat of emotion?
The heart, the diafragma, the skin and the stomach. But it really depends on the emotion. From the point of view of the Megadelanian civilisation all four bodyparts play some role in any emotion, although only one has a main role; it is said that that one is the leading organ.
Quote: What bodypart does the Megadelanian civilization think is the seat of consciousness?
The soul. From the point of view of the Megadelanian civilization it isn’t a bodypart but the essence of the living body.

Talanese motional/locational/temporal prepositions are derived from body parts or other nouns (note, /a/ is actually more central, and /r/ usually is a tap, but they written as such for the ease of transcription):
My apologies, this was a neat table
In, inside of - Tendet (heart) /ˈtɛndət/ Out, outside of - Twizo (shell, skull) /ˈtwizoʊ/ Around (static) - Natan (skin, bark) /natɔn/ Through (static) - Ped (stick, rod) /pɛd/ On top of, Over (static) - Miye (hair) /ˈmijə/ Above, Over (static) - Aol (cloud) /ɔβ̞͡ɫ/ Underneath - Bundu (underside) /ˈbɵndʊw/ Below - Neeza (grass) /ˈniza/ Beside, Next to - Stabed (arm) /ˈstabəd/ In front of - Danćod (chest) /ˈdɔntɕɔd/ Behind - Kee (back) /k͜xi/ At (in a place; at a moment) - Se /sə/ Over (dynamic) - Meyl (wing) /ˈmɛil/ Under, Before - Asper (water) /ˈaspər/ Through (dynamic), During, While being in - Ense (spear) /ˈɛnsə/ Past, After - Huś (wind) /hʊɕ/ From elsewhere towards here - Sitei (source of river) /ˈsiti/ Towards a specific location Ula (gaze) /ˈʊla/ Away from here - Pridas (buttocks) /ˈpridas/ Alongside - Dedomheyet (lover, lit hand-holder) /dədɔˈmejət/ < relatively recent addition to the pronoun list, con-historically Off - Away, from touching - Donin (fall) /ˈdɔnɘn/ Into (place, area, state) - Raowemelek (field of view) /rɔwəˈmeilək/ (always makes me think 'raw milk') Out of (place, area, state) - Meśa (leaf bud) /ˈmeiɕa/ Around (dynamic) - Malman (orbit) /ˈmɔlmɔn/, dynamic form of /ˈmɔlma/, hug Moving around the inside of area or place - Sefse (sniff around) /ˈsɛfsə/
--- And no, this is not a confusing system. Talanese requires articles for nouns pretty much all the time (because nouns themselves don't inflect much), and of course prepositions don't have articles. It all came to me when I was reading a rather interesting text that had something to do with perception of time, progress and motion in Mediaeval paintings in the library. Actually, my whole TAM system is built upon inspiration drawn from that! ---
As for the body parts list, well... I haven't filled out much, yet, because I've chosen to do it elaborately. I have more words for body parts than there are on this list, but I just haven't reached them yet while filling it out!
Thanks for providing it, though. Here's what I have so far (.htm converted from .doc) http://www.by002.net/~neuteboo/bodyparts.htm
I'll get there... some time!

Here's some of the body parts that I have in Danšlağ. I haven't really gotten specific with them, although I have got the "main" ones.
body- ri nose- nopu ear- yakušu mouth- slata eye- aslo tongue- zabu teeth- clač tonsils- kakraku neck- uxač hair- skoru head- baru shoulder- tuŵ arm- cura hand- ğeš finger- baklaŵer fingernail- baklaŵeruka thumb- kuku chest- orka breast- ğuš stomach- iču lungs- abačeraku leg- laŵe ankle- etai foot- teš toe- kuklaŵer toenail- kaklaŵeruka genital- irosi penis- bamu vagina- omaru
That's pretty much all I have so far. I'm sure I'll add more after reading this, though.
