The second one there. ‘S e [UNCERTAIN PREDICATE] a tha [”ANN AN” + SUBJECT] interests me, I would love to run tests on it all day to see how the different parts work, but alas! I don’t think I’ll properly get around to it.

Here are prepositions.

Just realised I didn’t really make it clear which types of prepositions get modified by the definite article.

Type 1: à, ann an, le, ri, gu.

Type 2: bho, fo, mu, ro, tro, do, de.

Aig and Air don’t get modified.

You can further discern that nonleniting prepositions get S and leniting prepositions get N.

It was hard to actually do this without stepping into a simple word list. Some of this might make more sense to me than to others, but hey if you’re as serious about this like I am then you’ll know what I’m talking about.

This page actually had a failed page because it was hard to think of a good way of storing the information, and my pen started to put to much ink onto the page.

Adjectives.

Maybe later.

Note: The perfective is the same as the perfect construction. The perfect also inverts direct objects.

Made these tables, I’ll be sure to digitise them for greater self reference.
