wow! :-) that's what i call effective primitivistic expression. i like the
"inanimate agent" tag -ya too. i know plenty of conlangs have a like one as
well but for the first time i could satoru how handy it proves to derive nouns
of instruments and facilities--thanks to Aidan, in a way. i can see too that
some conlangs ignore vegemite :-)
i mixed up "scratch" and "scratching", thus got the following wrong--and will
never turn a fluent speaker, so it seems. trying again for the deleted records:
"His scratch is worse than his scratch."
"Wound-from scratch that-to-that person impairs more in-comparison [with]
wound-from scratch that-from-same person."
"Kichanyo keka yekama taka ataikuhu wachuka umeki kichanyo keka yotipi taka."

"against all expectations i'm not launching a Golden-ZZZ contest for the most
boringly predictible conlang. i just happened to proudly make it."
"utengeki ayakela taikochi kani yeHipu Mala yechaka haihita yatomo chaichingile
chaimene. apicha toli makonyang wamaipuke."
