Larry, That's a possibility. I also downloaded Roget's original thesaurus from Project Gutenberg with its categories and sub-categories. The thing that concerns me about using a categorical index is that the category names are one more thing that would have to be translated into a number of different natlangs. I really was hoping to figure out a way that beyond the first introductory page, everything could be written in the conglang itself without recourse to any natlang. --gary
