As the business war on the air is hotting up with so many low-budget airlines dominating the sky, the passengers can now enjoy the best deals. The webguide -...

HI, HOW ARE YOU , DEAR FRIEND, I WANT TO LEARN KONYA LANGUAGE , I WILL BE GLAD IF YOU HELP ME. THANKS. Z.T Send instant messages to your online friends...
Hi, All. When last we left our Konya story, I had some small updates to make. I have yet to make them, but I will do so. In the meantime, here is something new...
I generally feel that head-initial is a bit more logical than head-final. However, I'm considering moving Konya towards head-final (except for subordinate ...
I've updated the Babel text. I incorporated the general first person plural pronoun "min-min-wi" and changed the third person pronoun to "kusi". I also changed...
In a much earlier incarnation of Konya I had allowed the form CSV for functionals. Later, that form didn't work so well with the developing morphology and I...
Here are few of my burning questions or issues: 1) "kon-pan-tixun-wi" for 'student' is way ugly. Do we really need to build 'learn' from 'teach' or vice versa?...
I'm starting to believe that Steve Rice's recommendation is wise: that Konya should mandatorily distinguish singular and plural pronouns, at least for some...
Up to now I've avoided special treatment for ditransitives, figuring that the second object pretty much needed a preposition to establish the relationship...
Hi, Can I put my hand up for a category or two? Those I'd most like to have a go at include numbers 10 and 11 18, 19, and 21 26, 25, 24 and 28 35 and 36. ...
The new version of Konya moves away from bound morphemes. Even common suffixes like "wi" and "yu" (noun and verb conversion markers) are compounded rather than...
At last, I have updated the web site with the so-called Konya2 version...formally, this is simply Konya Version 037. I've updated these files: sample...
I've been promised by the Chief at least one, and possibly two, full days this weekend to finish off and post this revision of Konya. Sorry for the long delay....
I'm still alive, and the big phonotactic revision of Konya is still underway. A few urgent repairs around the house have slowed me down. It may be a couple...
It's going to be quiet on my end for a few days while I focus on Konya-2. Rather than try to juggle all the things we'd like to do, I'm focusing on rebuilding...
I think I would like to strongly prefer transitive to intransitive verbs. There might be a handful of verbs -- state verbs, I guess -- that just can't be...
In the earliest versions of Konya Classic, I relied heavily on subordinate clauses to use verbs to modify nouns. Done judiciously, this mechanism doesn't have...
Jim, thanks for your ideas on copula aspects, etc. I think I can make them work along the lines you've laid out. I've been working on Konya-2 the last several...
I'd been planning to remove the copula, or use a non-verb kind of word for it. But then I realised that 'to be' isn't the only copula lying around -- there are...
I'll be on the road tomorrow and out of town for a few days. I'll try to check in. Meanwhile, I haven't given up on Konya Classic, despite its more difficult...
I've thought some more about how we decide what the noun meaning of a word must probably be, if we know its verb meaning, or vice versa. Rene de Saussure came...
I remembered something that I tried in another Konya predecessor that was bisyllabic. A small subset of the 2-syllable morphemes had a 1-syllable form that...
I've posted a Konya-ULD mapping table on the website. It's a tab- delimited text file (using ULD version 2 lexicon) suitable for downloading. The rows look...
