Cool language!
Although, why did you assign each pronoun set to its specific
relationship? i.e. why's Hebrew I>S, and Latin E>E? Is the S>I set also
Latin?
Since i looked ahead in my emails, here's the perfect (`avar) conjugation
of HYH:
(in IPA with distinctions between all consonants and vowels, including
bgdkpt allophones. not all sounds are pronounced (or even were
pronounced) the way they're written)
1s ~ hOji:Ti:
2sm ~ hOji:TO
2sf ~ hOji:T
3sm ~ hOjO
3sf ~ hOj@TO
1p ~ hOji:nu:
2pm ~ hE<@>ji:TEm
2pf ~ hE<@>ji:TEn
3p ~ hOju:
(/O/ = "big" /a/ ; /E<@>/ = "ultrashort" [E] replacing /@/ ; [T] =
"softened" /t/)
