Whats a swadesh? It sounds painful. Inspirations for this language include Maltese, Russian, Japanese and English. btw, my informant tells me that Demuan actually has several dialects, but is reticent when it comes to giving precise details, so I'm not 100% sure of the correctness of my translations. --- Fabian Rule One: Question the unquestionable, ask the unaskable, eff the ineffable, think the unthinkable, and screw the inscrutable.
