Re: Meanings for Piktok gylphs

I have been looking at LOTEP 10421.1 for a while, and I may have discovered
a meaning or two for it:

(1) Lie (the bottom half of a face [chin] with the speech flowing out in
confusing and deceitful ways)

(2) Tell a tale, story (the same picture but without the negative value
judgment - here the circuitous route of the speech is taken to indicate
leisure)

Thanks for discovering the meanings of these glyphs.
I will credit you with the discoveries in the
dictionary.

I've filled in some more of the phonetic glyphs and I
plan to add another dozen glyphs later this evening,
including some more unknowns.
