Re: CHAT: t-shirt

Matt is busy in the real world so he asked me to forward his T-shirt entry.

Hi David,

Thanks for forwarding this to me.  I don't have Nicole's email address, so
I'll send this to you, and you can forward it to the list:

  Kasuano' tiokapi sul, pusuko sul kulu
  kasuan-o-(h)       tioka-pi sul      pusuk-o    sul      kulu
  go.against-Imp-the die-Ger  language create-Imp language self
  "Fight the death of languages, invent your own language"

(Imp = imperative suffix, Ger = gerundive suffix)

The first word should be _kasuano_ with an accent ague (`) over the final
vowel.  I can't do diacritics with my email program.

Best,
Matt.
