ARGH!  Embarrassingly enough, I used the regular infinitive/imperative
instead of the generic infinitive as the root.  So that should *really* be:

Karesjanad habozaz baraín, sjarahie mabodaz.

In Kirschenbaum:
Kare'Sanad? ha'bOzaZ ba'raIn, Sara'hie ma'bOdaZ.

(Incidentally, the more I use Kirschenbaum the more I like it, though I
confess I haven't tried out the alternatives.  Now all I need to do is
save up so I can order the IPA CD so I know what all those sounds on the
chart *sound* like, since my boyfriend's computer refuses to render
sounds on phonetics webpages for some reason...OC it's a dying computer
anyway.)

YHL, fretting over minor mistakes
