Sex (was Re: picnic)

To the Kassí, it's not considered very significant, it's something that
occurs at one time of the year.  Thus, there are only three words:

Gudí (verb) wagudyalá (noun): To mate
Likanglí (verb) walikangallá (noun): To breed, that is, mate with the
intention of bearing/fathering children
   Incidentally, this is derived from slikán (offspring) and glí
(create, make)
Gagudí (verb) wagagudyalá (noun): Roughly equivalent to "fornicate" or
"perversion", sexual activity occuring outside the mating season.

That's it.  Presumably there are words to describe sexual organs and the
like, but I haven't worked those out.
