Sylvia is also way busy, and will point you to some Kelen webpages rather than
write out an explanation.

A short intro:
http://www.terjemar.net/kelen.php

More explanations regarding relationals (what I have instead of verbs. Think
of them as copulae.):
http://www.terjemar.net/relats.php

An example of a longer work in translation (incomplete):
http://www.terjemar.net/sarahb.php

These pages are the latest versions of my language. Material on other sites
besides terjemar.net is still valid, but may be dialectal or colloquial or
something now. The material on terjemar.net is also very incomplete. In my
copious free time (ha!) I will change that.

PA is one of my relationals, and it does something very similar in a very
similar construction. Great minds think alike, obviously.
