Done. All prefixes and suffixes are in there. I think the only thing
I'm missing now is the text from the Bird of Prey poster. :-) I've put
so much work into making it perfect that I almost regret my stance that
it shouldn't be made generally available.

The definition "ache, hurt, be sore" is clearly intransitive.

The audiotapes do a good job of showing correct pronunciation, pretty much
by definition :-). Maybe we could make some sound files available with a
sampling of moderately long text? Perhaps get someone to read Nick's poems
or something -- making sure of course that the person reading has good
pronunciation.
