Ligatures are basically particles which glue together related words (nouns and adjectives, etc). They're not really closely related to the Trigger system I don't think except in my brain, which keeps coming up with ideas that link the two of them. *shrugs* I have lots of ideas though, and most of them are rubbish. Occasionally I get a gem though, so its worth trying them out. ;)
