Re: Vocab exercise, year 2, #1

In Jovian:


    > 1. crowd

|Muodiduende (loedon)| [,mu@di"dynd ("lAjdAn)] n.f. "multitude,
large number (of people)"

    > There was a huge crowd in front of the building.

    > 2. lead

|duger| ["du:g@r] "to lead, guide"

    > She led her dog into the field.

(|Nun| is not a loan from German like many other Jovian words, it's
formed from Latin "nunc".  The infinitive |vare| "to go" is treated
like a noun here: |vari| "for going" is the oblique singular form.)

    > 7. -ion
    > two parts here: first, how are verbal nouns formed?

Just steal the appropriate form from Latin and Jovianize it.  =)
Nation -> |naezone|, vision -> |uesone|, action -> |aectone|.

    >    His action was hasty.
