Dev=E9rrin had "v" =3D "to become", but in practice this usually would = have had a suffix attached to it (e.g. "als vitiz" =3D "it became bright"). When I reformed Dev=E9rrin a couple of years ago, I added an infinitive suffix -at (infinitives in old Dev=E9rrin were simply the verb roots), so= the bare root "v" isn't found in new Dev=E9rrin any more. -- languages of Kolagia---> = +---<http://www.io.com/~hmiller/languages.html>--- Thryomanes /"If all Printers were determin'd not to print = any (Herman Miller) / thing till they were sure it would offend no = body, moc.oi @ rellimh <-/ there would be very little printed." -Ben = Franklin
