It's just that when I asked some of the powers that be if they wanted me to delete the thread about it in the D'ni History forum on Uru Live, they said no,...
OK, so we know -ihn occurs in Aitrus' Map, a RAWA quote, and the name for a pseudo-Age in Uru -- it's fair game. I know that -ihj has occurred elsewhere,...
... -ihj is in FMTR...I do have a copy, I shall have to look it up. Hmmm, the only place where I've seen any D'ni in FMTR is the map of Aitrus in the beginning...
Shorah! I've just joined this lyst and thought that a provocative subject heading would be in order :-) Not of course that it isn't without its significance...
Well, so much for trying to be coherent at one o'clock in the morning... That should have been: .ril ko-manshoo te ril-dil .ko-manshoo te biv-dil Meaning: I...
To echo Kehrin, welcome to the lyst, Khrees! We've been waiting for ya! :) You bring up some very good points regarding Kadish's death note, which I'll...
A bit of steam left. :) ... Agreed about your thoughts on kihno... dohooreet I'm pretty convinced is a passive verb, though. We've got examples from Aitrus ...

... so some ... themselves. Good point that hadn't occurred to me. When we're told that the page is from Gehn's Journal, do we know exactly which journal that...
Yay! Khrees is back from...wherever... :-D Very glad to have you, indeed. Your dictionary has been a number one source for me as well. Re: the note, which I've...

... I honestly don't know. I don't have a copy of From Myst To Riven, so I couldn't tell you to save my life. I had always assumed it was one that wasn't...
... I don't know, Dave, I really don't think that Gehn's particular brand of madness would have that effect. He is a control freak first and foremost; every...
This was particularly interesting to me: bo-manshoo to-met te eest. "I will die here with (eest)." What about that "eest"? Anyone think maybe it's a pronoun of...
... Well, it's either a noun or a pronoun... it also appears in the Kenen Gor fragment, where it's prefixed by a "reh-" -- most likely a noun, then, yes?...
... Things are making sense now... If only Atrus knew about this, he'd've given us a spare Domino's shirt and nametag, Gehn would've opened up the office cage...

The first sentence in the second paragraph of Kadish's note is, I gather: .kor-vahkh-tee ken-eet to-met roo ril bo-koozah 'Linking-books are here that I will...
Whew! It just keeps getting deeper and deeper into the grammatical mush... I'll try to keep this as concise and accessible as I can for the non-grammarians...
