You could also have: \lx ne \a n'om \u ne no -im I have quite a few things like that in my file for Uatakassi, altho most of them are because shoebox would otherwise come up with multiple parsings, only one of which is even logical. :-) (Like, it'd combine noun and verb prefixes), so for common groups of prefixes, I'll tell it which is the proper parsing. -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'.
