Re: THEORY nouns and cases (was: Verbs derived from noun cases)

Reminds me of a nasty Russian joke about Chuktches:

Question: How do Chuktche toilets look like ?

Answer: Two sticks. The first one to keep balance, the
secund one to keep wolves away.

Well, I TOLD you it was a nasty one. Dear Chuktche
conlangers, I'll slap my face myself.
