I have a bit of a cold since yesterday, but that doesn't
keep me away from working ;-)

Nice ideas with that proto-lang. Hey, I haven't remembered
that you don't need a full-blown language to name things.
Hm, there is no relative to Ayeri yet, so it should be very
easy to create roots by some nice sound changes. That'd
save me indeed much time as for creating words for relative
languages! What'd be interesting is creating a/some naming
language/s from scratch. Shouldn't be that
difficult ... what I have typed up yesterday evening can be
found at http://www.beckerscarsten.de/conlang/naming/.

*) ::sniff:: -- I think it's [h] + voiceless aspirated
breathy voiced bilabial nasal ingressive fricative. I
assumed breathing in (reverse airstream, into the lungs) is
_< in X-Sampa. There's no "fricativized" diacritic in IPA
as it seems :-(
