How do agglutinating languages express concepts like "downwards"? Are they basic roots, or do they derive from other parts of speech? I'm stuck on this point with the Khangaþyagon Babel text. So far, my best idea for "downwards" is yiodam yi 3p od below am destination "To below oneself". Is this anything like what natlangs do? Pete
