Well, i have decided to stop at the tree hundred or so roots i have right
now. I am actually doing the derivations right now. That part isnt as
boring as trying to think of meaning for roots. For y first conlang i am
fortunate, i just change the sounds of the original words. This one i have
to actually think about the root, and synonyms of the meanings, etc.....a
lot of work. With 300 roots i probably have an adequate lexicon for
actually using it (the most fun part for me).
