    I just love how the people on this list delve into translation
exercises at the drop of a hat....  :-]

    It becomes a little interesting (to me, at least) how similar the word
coined for "interbe" ('a_'wo_l+) is to the word for "from"
(nga\vo/l).  Everyday speakers of Rav Zarruvo (whose poets, by the way,
would hold just this point of view) would not only hold onto a perception
of interbeing that requires one side of the equation to be derived from the
other, but also find ways to construct truly horrible puns from that
linguistic coincidence....  :-]
