Little confirmation - tìtxen si

Plumps · July 25, 2012, 05:17:27 AM

Going through the dictionary I was made aware by Blue Elf that dict-navi.com had tìtxen si listed while the main dictionary does not. I derived that from our well-known eltur tìtxen si.
So, I asked K. Pawl about it ... and the great guy that he is he answered promptly

Quote from: K. Pawl, 25 July 2012About tìtxen si: Good catch. It should indeed be in the dictionary. And everything you've guessed about it is correct. It's a regular si-verb construction and your example sentence is fine.

The translation I suggested for tìtxen si was 'to wake, to waken, wake up'. The sentence I sent him was

Sa'nok 'evengur tìtxen si sresrr'ong.
Mother woke the child in the early morning.

...which also implies tìtxen awakening.

Congratulation, Plumps! Dict-Na'vi is now better than our official dictionary

Somehow this has been in there for ages

AHhhhhhh soooo THAAAT's how dict-navi is soo much larger than Eana Eltu in size.

You extrapolated words via educated guesses on derivations of extant canonical lexical entries. Makes sense now.
