Wow,

All you guys who posted your lists amaze me!

I just spent all day alphabetizing (and htmling)
my glossary. Alevain has barely 150 words!
It's a good thing I like a challenge.  I was going
to make sure I had covered all 101 words and
phrases most commonly used in everyday
communication (I found a list at a site on the
Hawai`ian lang).

But I love a good challenge!  I'm well over my
quota for items from the natural world (I guess
the Vayeum are major nature lovers) and
for items from human crafts (they're also very
practical) but everything else is pretty sparse.

Well, for those who are curious, the entire lexicon
of Alevain words that appear in both my tutorial
and in _The Argo_ is included in the online
glossary at

Well, my 200 Club list will appear soon and then
I'll be hard at work on my 101 conversational
phrases.
