Re: Vocab #8

>brought to you by B for bakery and number agreement (or not).
One of the more repetitious areas of Kash vocabulary-- the words for "bake,
bread, bakery, oven" are all derived from a single base...

>   1. bread-- andoço, though it can refer to any baked goods; there are
several types, this refers to the familiar type made into loaves. (< toço
'bake')
>        I would like 4 loaves of bread, please.
(turole,) mameloto ha piku andoço.
begging, I-will-want 4 loaf bread.  (turole is unnecessary, since idiomatic
meloto is already a polite form)
>
>    2. flour-- yanjun (< cun 'grind')
>        This bread is made with 7 cups of flour.
andoço tayu imepu umit sor tangole yanjun. (An active sentence, object
fronted)
bread this they-make use 7 cup flour.
_tangole_ standard measuring cup used in the kitchen, 200 pem, slightly less
than 10 oz. (5 tangole = 1 cipem,  = 1.394kg or just over 48 oz.)
>
>    3. glaze (n or v)-- in this case, lipet 'to cover'
>         This delicious-looking loaf is glazed with honey/has a honey
glaze.
piku tayu, re ciyoñi sambat uñat, yale lipetni sukekevu
loaf this, REL its-seem/appear so delicious, there-is its-covering "honey"
(lit.
water plus kekevu 'a bee-like insect'-- bug juice if you will.)
>
>    4. muffin -- use tocamici < tocami 'k.o. sweet bread'  -ci diminutive
>          They have 42 kinds of sweet muffins.
isorom hapola ro naya tocamici
they-sell 42 kind sweet-roll-dim.

If OTOH you're just describing the spread at a party e.g., then _yale_
'there is/are' instead of _isorom_

>    5. bakery -- yundroço (yurun 'place'  toço 'bake')
