Siyo!
The system I use for Káyasánoda works for languages
with two-syllable roots.  Using Excel, I put along
each axis all the possible syllables (in K-da that's
only about 65).  I had a nice reference to keep from
duplicating syllable combinations.  Then, every time I
coined a root, I put in the English translation, then
opened up another page in Excel, 26 columns worth, and
put the English-to-Káyasánoda entry there.
