Suretua.

Tentatively I am renaming Gaajan. Suretua is from 'sure' (v) tell,
recount. The ending -tu is the antipassive ending, but I have long
used -tu and -tua as nominalisers denoting the means to an action, a
perhaps not totally unrelated sense. Of these, -tu is used for the
more abstract nouns. Apparently the language itself is concrete
enough to receive a concrete ending.
Any comments?
I have no other news; there's been far too much work this summer to
do any but the barest necessities of conlanging...
