Muahaha. Joking, eh? Only when I have transferred my current TXT-file-per-entry based dictionary into an SQL database one day. And please also tell me how to make MySQL change every _.ao$_ to _yam_ resp. every _.áo$_ to _ayam_. I hope I have the RegExp right here ... As for whether Ayeri has some use for the regular infinitive, no, it hasn't yet. I just forgot to build it in ... so maybe if I should go and change the grammar, but this will be unlikely because I had to change lots of translations then, and I don't feel like doing that. Greetings, Carsten
