Re: [Tlhingan-hol] Some useful mnemonics
ja' Philip:
{poS vaj nIH} "It's open, so he steals it" - to help you remember that
{poS} is "left" and {nIH} is "right".
I remembered them seperately:
"push the door, and it's {poS}"
"The thief steals {nIH} with his right {nIH} hand."
{moHaq} has a protrusion on the upper side (the "H"), so it means "prefix".
{mojaq} has a protrusion on the lower side (the "j"), so it means "suffix".
A protrusion? sounds too complicated to me :-)
I remember the alphabet: the H in moHaq comes first, then the j from mojaq.
{-Qo'} is a "type 8.5" suffix, since it always comes last except when
followed by a type 9 suffix.
Marc Okrand actually liked this sentence,
"...except when followed by..."
Lieven.
