Re: Conlang in-jokes.

I made I think one too many in-jokes in Sheli.  Here are some:

-[tS_h@m] = "friend" (though the original form ended in a [p]--a
reference to a joke on The Simpsons)

-[dog] = "tail" (which is the classifier used for cats and...dogs)

-[g@m] = "to speak" (i.e., when you speak, you flap your ___)

-[dZok] = "person" (a bit of needless dark humor)

-[m2:] = "shark" (derives from earlier *mek_ho)

-[fak] = "to hit" (the old definition of the old German word now of
ill repute)

-[f@n] = "word" (because creating words is fun!)

-[dZim] = "poem" (in reference to Jim Morrison, which leads to...)

And then, of course, there's the accidental one in my signature
below, which has been mentioned on the list before.
