I wasn't following the insult thread. What does "mutu"
mean? In Tokana, "mutu" means "fence" or "dividing
wall", which isn't exactly an insult - and could even be
construed as complimentary, if you agree with Robert
Frost that "good fences make good neighbours". :-)

Any chance of getting her to join the list? Mothers of
three are generally super-busy people, but we have at
least one on this list already, Mia Soderquist. (Mia and
Pia, I like it...) Anyhow, be sure to welcome her to the
world of conlanging on behalf of all of us. (And a special
"vaelkommen" from us Swedish speaking conlangers...)
