Concerning fluency in Druni:
I would have to say that I am "basically" fluent in Druni. By that I mean
that I speak it as well as I do French which is my second language. So,
although I do quite well without a grammar or lexicon I do ocassionally come
across words that I don't know and have to look up.
At present Druni contains a vocabulary of approximately 9, 000 roots. If you
include words formed from agglutination that would increase to at least 10,
000 words. I would say that I know approximately 6, 000 of them although I
have never scientically tested this assumption.
Djáni,
Jim
PS. I do a lot of talking to myself in Druni!
