I don't remember whether I have a Frath account, but I suspect I've
got one somewhere. Regardless,
that seems like an outstandingly good idea. Knowing us, it risks
turning into a full on description of
the phonology and phonotactics of each language, and quite possibly
morphology/morphosyntax. I guess
that's a risk I'll have to live with. Actually, using Frath instead of
MS Word as my primary notebook
for Terzemian might be a very good idea indeed. Hm. Too many plans at
once.

Do we have a table on a wiki of the numbers from one to ten in our
languages? I know at least one
person would find that useful and interesting. Double points for
tables grouped by family, with a
couple of related natlangs (if appropriate) thrown in for comparison.
Duodecuple points for rivalling
markrose's megalist.
