How do the Welsh verb-nouns work?
I've been calling the Rokbeigalmki roots that function as nouns unless
they are 'conjugated' into a verb 'verb-nouns' also.
for example:
|ghalub| "an ascent"
|guvdhab| "a statement"
|aza-ghalub| "i am going up" (|az| "i", |a| 'present-immediate tense')
|imzu-guvdhab| "they (female) spoke" (|imz| "they(f)", |u| 'past tense')
-Stephen (Steg)
"tezar, uh tezar-nyet?"
