Some shifts have been made in the lexicon including some common roots. As
always, the latest information can be found in the online dictionary but some
examples are listed here.

dat -> don = give
sut -> hek = hundred
jug -> sud = south
sad -> tezen = garden


Vocabulary building continues slowly but there have been a considerable number
of geographic names added (a few more examples below.)

viti = Fiji
madjarorsag = Hungary
qomun = Macau
tsjaq'dzjaq = Yangze
dunav = Danube



Latest Vocabulary Statistics:
592 roots.
SASXSEK-English dictionary: 2311 entries.
English-SASXSEK dictionary: 3109 entries.

Your suggestions are welcome. Please e-mail me with any roots that you think
would be suitable for addition to the vocabulary.
