Welcome to the list, Josh!  Now you have to tell us something about your
language...

I guess that _tidi_ means language, _mote/moti_ means "list", _vjooa_ and
_vjot_ are different forms of "this" (perhaps determiner and pronoun,
respectively), and _ot_ is some sort of present tense copular element ("is").
Am I warm?  Please tell more.  My favourite part of this list is reading
grammatical sketches of other people's languages.

Matt.
