Of Ithkuil’s eighty-one cases, only twelve are spatial/local, leaving 69 non-local cases. The revised version of Ithkuil which is almost completed (tentatively named Lishkái), has 64 of Ithkuil’s non-local cases, plus 24 new cases associated with comparisons, for a total of 88 non-local cases. --John Quijada
