[edit] Notes
- Though all the verbs are listed as if they are verbal nouns, they are simply umodified stems
- Verbs of motion use the particle e before the destination
- Adjectives usually end with -os
- Interogatives automatically include an auxilliary verb when nessecary (e.g. Kadne kareris "What do you want?")
