After reading part of the "Missing Words" thread, this came to mind. It seems that a lot of languages have similar words for conjunctions- mostly short, vowel-rich syllables. I was wondering what your languages use for conjunctions. I'll start by listing the few I have for Evíendadhail. These can all be used for joining lists of words or sets of independant clauses. Í /i/ 'and' Ó /um....dunno. English 'long o'/ 'Inclusive or (= and/or)' Iv /Iv/ 'Exclusive or (= either...or)' Sau /sau/ 'but' That's it so far. How do these compare to yours? Similar at all? -M
