Re: The Noli proverb.

Ah, more on Notya!  I will understand this language yet!

OK, one thing I'm not really clear on yet, in Notya, is how words and phrases
combine with each other.  I've got the idea that a word in conjunctive form
links together with the following word, and that the grammatical function of
the phrase is determined by the second word, but by what rule does "pon"
modify "tjomu"?  (Perhaps this is something simple I missed from your first
post; I don't have it handy while I'm writing this.)
