Catty wrote concerning the Moraso vowel endings for its cases stating that it
reminded him of Esperanto where all the nouns looked masculine and all the
adjectives looked feminine.  My only question is: looks masculine to whom?
looks feminine to whom? That is a very Euro-centric way of looking at word
forms.  Now don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Euro-looking languages.
My own creation Druni was meant to look faintly European aka Indo-European.

IMHO, Moraso has the right to develope according to its own evolutionary
pattern whatever that might be.

Why don't we all just sit back and enjoy the show!?
