Pronouns revised and word generation

Siyo!
Well, things are starting to move swimmingly with
Kayasanoda.  I'm starting to get enough roots to
generate more complex words:
rib= katsikoli =katsi "chest" + koli "bone"
daughter= kisiwetsi =kisi "female" + wetsi "offspring"
star= hatsumani =hatsu "light" + mani "point"
zebra= kehinekakwili =kehi "black" + neka "white +
kwili "horse"
This is fun!

Also, I realized that it was bad form to have a very
rare sound (the glottal stop), so I amend my reflexive
pronouns to aha-, ehe-, ...

I also forgot to mention the "negative pronouns",
which negate the agglutinating verb: ana-, ene-, ...

And I've tidied my greetings and farewells.  I now
have a formal and informal for each one.
Informal:
Siyo =hello
Dana =Goodbye

Formal
Amesika Yaweha mesawenimo =I thank God for your
coming.
Emesohaleka Yawehi =Go with God.

Much to do...

Dana
Kalinida
