Revised Grammar sketchlang (reposted)

 sorry about that...sometimes when I copy&paste from the graph-based =
program I use, to the email box, I forget two things:
1) this version of hotmail (right here) is automatically Rich Text =
Format (so it needs to first go through a paste&cut on another word =
document, before being put on email.
2) uh...actually, that was both things, right there.  :)

 ahh...correlatives; okay.

 yes, the "word" column was inspired by Turkish: where one letter in the =
middle of the word, can affirm or negate the action.

 thank you.


>Anyway, this is a stark improvement in explicitness.
>  Essentially,
then, the pronouns you use reflect the gender of the speaker.  So
if you're referring to, say, a desert via a pronoun, you know if a
woman or man is the one who's speaking simply by virtue of the
pronoun they use

 exactly.
 (it also helps pin down the gender of the person who wrote the travel =
guide you're reading).   :)


>So, yes, this is a much better method of presentation.
 *takes a breath of relief*

>  Though you should
be aware of the fact that only I and a few others will be able to read
messages like these.

 I'm working on that!

 how's this?:
