* Vocabulary
There has been quite a bit of shifting of vocabulary. Dictionary
entries have been updated to reflect the changes. Some of the more
notable changes are shown below.


PU -> BU, PA -> BA, KAPA -> KABA
The preposition "pu" (="against") has been changed to "bu". This also
changes the related words "pa" (exclusive "or") and "kapa" (inclusive
"or) to "ba" and "kaba".

SO -> ZO, SI -> ZI
The proximal demonstratives "so" and "si" are now "zo" and "zi".


-IN/-IP
These two suffixes are eliminated completely. The same purpose can be
served by
prefixing the prepositions "nu" (="without") and "bu" (="against,anti-")
to form a compound.

honesip -> buhones = dishonest
felisin -> nufelis = unhappy
finino -> nufino = infinity
kapini -> nukapi = headless


Some other lexical changes.

ven -> kin = go, move
neg -> kal = black
pos -> tav = be located, be positioned
makan -> jes = eat
top -> bal = ball, sphere
non -> nul = zero, null, none
dobrot -> doz = kind, nice
tem -> kron = time
temat -> tem = theme, topic
hih -> has = laugh
vat -> hid = water
