Yes, I've made a decision, a CV- reduplication will be sufficient for "meaningless" reduplication. Thus, the "meaningless" reduplication of mlál will be mamlál, of d'iá will be dad'iá, etc. So, suddenly Uatakassí now has *two* adjective reduplications, full denoting "exceedingly or excessively" and partial with no significance. -- Cenedl heb iaith, cenedl heb galon A nation without a language is a nation without a heart - Welsh proverb ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-Name: NikTaylor42
