Kaltxì!

I just noticed that we still need a word for "immediately" (maybe also an praefix/infix/suffix for imperative-verbs) as well as a praefix to express the superlative (like txur=strong, nul-txur=stronger, ***-txur=strongest).

The comparative isn't made using "nul-", but "to"

"A is bigger than B" is "A to B lu [big]"

toruk to ikran lu tsawl
The leonopterix is bigger than an ikran.

We don't have any information on the superlative, but we know 'e'al (worst) and swey (best). At least these words don't seem to be made according to the same method.
