At this point, we may conclude one of two things: a.) either Ygyde's taxonomy system and roots have failed, or b.) a taxonomical system of word formation provides no advantage to a language. If the creator of a taxonomical language cannot guess what new words means, then certainly something is wrong somewhere. As for grammar, ideally one should be able to understand the basic gist of things without perfect grammar. For instance, I can say "Cat black yesterday to house runned" and expect that someone paying close attention will be able to understand that a black cat ran to or into a house yesterday. :Peter
