Re: Elliott, eno, une, uni? (was Re: Translation (was: Introducing Lapsi)

hmmm...nope not really, it's just a word derived from the SIL primative root -'EN- with a
glotal stop in the begining. Come to think of it though, the word itself is a
pronoun, and...it really should be "ala" in this case. It would be like saying
in french: 'dans on voix' for 'dans une voix'. Oh well..

:)
