- I loved all of your ideas that i saw (sorry i'm skimming my emails cause i have too many of them), but this one jumped out at me. Assuming i remember the phonology post well, _nai_ would be something like /naj/ ? In Rokbeigalmki, _Yún nii_ (pronounced the same way) would mean "there is no Yoon." The equivalent of your _nai_ is _tii_ /taj/. -Stephen (Steg) "First of all..."
