... Hm. Now, in English "I know to read." is analagous with "I remember/forget to read." My problem is that I'm an English- speaker and that's what 'know'...
Semivowels bother me. I've flipped back and forth in Tceqli, allowing ai, ei, oi, ui to be diphthongs, because they look better to me than ay, ey, etc. OTOH,...
OTOH, if y and w disappear, we'll lose all those neat French (and other) borrowings like bwa, dwa, fwa, kwa. At this point I'm talking myself into letting i...
Inspired by LFN's Franka and a very good suggestion from Dana, I added a mascot to the Ceqli site. http://www.geocities.com/ceqli/Uploadexp.htm Pretty cute, if...

... But you could write compounds with a space between "ti fran pan", or not require a marker on derivatives or compounds. ... Since it's no longer a proper...

... In a way, it is indeed redundant. Let me summarize the situation as I see it: 1. Names are, and should be, a separate category. Thing is, the category is...
... "japanzohaym" is more concise than "ti japan beti sa haym"; I would suggest keeping "zo" but maybe limiting its scope to _only_ deriving compounds from...
I've given this a lot of thought, and I think I may have a solution. First, the normal Ceqli system is to have 'bracket particles' of the form x...beX. to...
