Hmm. Well, no, and, yes. I derived it from ne'ìm, since ne means to....but it is one of those large leaps that technically probably shouldn't be allowed.

I do not understand.

We (Plural, inclusive) be.able "'ìm" (derived from ne'ìm, back) speak like this yes/no?
Are we allowed to use "'ìm" like this?

i've found something too, but i don't know if it's right:

zìsìt-yä sngä'ikrr a-le-fpom aynga nìwotx

year's beginning of well-being to you all

This is very clever!

Lì'u-tì-täftxu-renu nì-law muiä nìwotx ulte fì'u'ìm ral sì txe'lan nawm l<ei>u nìmun!
Word-weaving-pattern clear (Adv.) right completely and that-back meaning and heart noble is again!
The grammar clearly is completely right and that derivation and noble heart is again! (not sure?)

Sìltsan nìwotx!
Good coompletely!
Completely right!



so Prrton said thats the grammar and so are correct.
But i've only found a composition and completed it with "aynga nìwotx"

so can someone explain why i have to use "-yä" and "a-le-"?

i have really troubles to understand using prefixes and the other things.

please, help me explaining

I would imagine, with the limited vocabulary we have at the moment, you'd have to say something like...

Zìsìt-yä sngä'ikrr a-le-fpom ngaru leiu!
Year-GEN beginning ATTR-ADJ-well.being you-DAT be<LAUD>!
Lit: Year's beginning of well-being toward you be! (Yay!).
Happy beginning of the year to you! :D

But, since the "to you" part is unsaid and understood in the English "Happy New Year!" I suppose you could just say:

Zìsìtyä sngä'ikrr alefpom!


Irayo, Tsumkan. Fpi fpom 'ong ayoeng

I'm a newbie at this. It's more like a learning (and understanding) by doing, so please correct me if I'm wrong anywhere.
"-yä" is the genetive case suffix, so in order to have "year's beginning" instead of "year beginning" you have to add "-yä" to zìsìt, although I'm not sure whether it's also possible to add it to the "beginning"
"le-" changes the noun fpom into an adjective
"-a-" is the suffix/prefix for an attributive adjective (difference between "happy Eleria" (attributive) and "Eleria is happy" (predicative)), so in order to connect "year's beginning" to or with "happy", you put the a- in front of the already changed lefpom

Hui, that was a hard one... Hope it's right... ;D
