|  evanescent  |

 I said "evanescent" might be "mallongtempa". Actually it would need to be shorter. Perhaps "ege mallongtempa", or "mallongtempega". "Eg" is an intensifier (like "Very" in english), and the essential part "eg" -- is often found right inside the word. How come it has an E on the end when it stands alone? Because then its acting as an adverb, like "-LY" at the end in English. Of course, "temp" might not even be the best root. Maybe "dauxr" would be better (duration). (Say it like english "dowr"). Evanescent: Mallongdauxrega opposite_of-long-lasting-(muchly!)-ish. -- of course the same way I say -E is like English -LY, (adverb), I say -A is like English -ish (adjective ending). BTW, Adjective is adjektivo. and Adverb is adverbo. Not hard to figure, there! --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Dada-1 * Origin: Prism bbs (1:261/38) |
