vocab14(?)

Howdy all,

Here's some of the latest vocab translated into 'Chrol', for
your amusement.

I use X-Sampa in the [brackets].
Except I will short-cut:
        N = N\  L = L\
        r = r\  x = x\
        G = G\

('cream' is not a typical concept for trolls, so here I just used
the borrowed word, adapted for Chrol phonotactics.)

Enjoy!
