Having to look up and, more often, coin new words is also what keeps me from being fluent in Old Albic. The grammar, despite being different in many respects from the grammars of the natlangs I am familiar with (remember, Old Albic is a fluid-S active/stative language with degree-of-volition marking, Suffixaufnahme and a handful of other "exotic" features), is quite readily accessible in my mind - I am almost blindly familiar with it. ... brought to you by the Weeping Elf
