A note on formatting: Each entry should be in a DIV, with a keyword for its class. The CSS can be managed dynamically so that each DIV class is either visible or hidden, so that you can see all of the words, or only a subset. So store your words as XHTML DIVs, and change their display using a PHP script to alter the CSS. (Hide entries to create vocabulary arranged by category; show everything to create a complete alphabetical list.)
Abstract words
- <span class="term">baa</span> <span class="ps">vi</span> <span class="def">To appear, be manifest, be noticeable, make (oneself) known, etc.</span> (baan)
- ga = to get, receive, take, etc. [< "get"] (Possible irregular descriptive form "gan") (Also possible passive-verb indicator: "deer get hunt from hunter")
- ke = to see, hear, know, understand, perceive, learn, etc. [Replacement for a word derived from "see" but confusable with "sa"; origin unclear.] (Possible irregular descriptive form "ken")
- pe = to make, influence, compel, etc. (don't use "sa" for this); also to set or put or place something (thus the opposite of "ga"). (Possibly also use this to mean "create, make, produce".) [< "push"/"put"] (Possible irregular descriptive form "pen")
- sa = to say, indicate, communicate, etc. [< "say"] (Possible irregular descriptive form "san")
- shai (?) = stay in, live in, occupy, call (a place) home, keep returning to, etc. (shain)
Clause markers
- e -- (generic clause marker, used before a consonant instead of "en")
- eeyoi -- interj.: "oh wow" or "oy vey" or "that (what was just said) is too bad" but often also expresses mild displeasure or annoyance or disappointment at the person to whom these sad things happened, e.g., the person has gotten himself into trouble needlessly, or the person has been enough of a pest that people have less sympathy for him than they otherwise might.
- en -- (generic clause marker, used before a vowel instead of "e")
- nei -- cm.: Introduces a "fill in the blank" question.
- oiwa -- cm.: Introduces a statement of tendency: "As a rule."
- poos -- interj.: Expresses disgust or disdain.
- sennee -- cm.: Indicates a change, esp. a change not expected or anticipated, or a change that is relatively dramatic. (Cf. "wada" which indicates that a clear expectation was violated; "sennee" does not presuppose an expectation. "Sennee you are tall" means "My, how you have grown"; "Wada you are tall" means "I would have expected you to have remained short".) [< "suddenly"]
- wada -- cm.: Indicates that things have not turned out as expected ("wada you didn't clean up this room" = "you were supposed to clean up this room") [< "what the (heck)"]
- yono -- cm.: Introduces a yes-or-no question.
Colors (and wavelengths of light)
The suffix for colors is -ma.
- gooma = black
- sheema = white
- zoma = blue
Comparison
- mon means "more than" -- it turns an intransitive verb into a transitive one -- "Rock is-heavy more-than water."
- moshi means "most" or "-est".
Food and Drink
Noun markers
- la introduces a singular common noun (use las for plural).
- re introduces a proper noun.

Numbers
Basic numbers
- zheu = zero
- gwan = one
- te = two
- fra = three
- fou = four
- ve = five
- ses = six
- saan = seven
- haas = eight
- nen = nine
- taan = ten
- hana = hundred
- fazha = thousand
Suffixes
- -gwan = unit (e.g., "tegwan" = pair)
- -pen = place within a sequence (e.g., "gwampen" = first, "tepen" = second, etc.)
- Also use -pen to separate places in a complex number, e.g., "vepen sezzi" = five million
- -zun = item ID, serial number, etc. (e.g., "gwanzun" = item #1, "tezun" = item #2, etc.
- -fui = part, reciprocal (e.g., "tefui" = half [1/2], "foufui" = quarter, etc.)
- -chu = negative power of ten (e.g., "techu" = 1/100, i.e., 10^-2)
- -zi = positive power of ten (e.g., "tezi" = 100, i.e., 10^2)
Comment:
Maybe the "ID" and "power" suffixes should be two syllables each.
Prepositions (verbs that are participles by default)
- apa = up
- ava = having
- azi = from, originating from
- dan = down
- dein = to, going to
- prima = vicinity (of); around, near
Pronouns
There are pronouns "I" and "you", and an "others" inflection, combinable in different ways. "me" = I, me; "ye" = you; "-he" not the other; "-n" = and others. So: "men" = me and others; "mehe" = me and not you; "mehen" = me and others but not you; "meye" = you and me; "meyen" = you, me, and others; "yen" = you and others; "yehe" = you and not me; "yehen" = you and others but not me.
And then there is the third-person system:
"da" = person (him, her); "na" = place; "le" = thing (it); "fa" = event; "zhai" = reason, cause, motivation; "rou" = method, technique, etc.; "koi" = number (Plural "dan", "nan", "len", "fan", "zhain", "roun", "koin"). ("ji" is sometimes used for "she", "ke" for "he")
"What", "this", "that" are prefixes: "gweda" = what person? who? -- "hena" = this place, here -- "dele" = that thing (right there) -- "yafa" = that event (distant, not present, not affecting things now) -- "soji" = some girl
- gweda = what person? who? -- gwena = what place? where? -- gwele = what thing? what? -- gwefa = what event? what happened? -- gwezhai = what reason? why? -- gwerou = what method? how? -- gwekoi = what number? how many? how much?
- heda = this person -- hena = this place, here -- hele = this thing, this -- hefa = this event -- hezhai = this reason -- herou = this method -- hekoi = this number, this amount.
- deda = that person (present) -- dena = that place, right there -- dele = that thing, visible -- defa = that event, happening right there -- dezhai -- that reason, clear to him who looks -- derou = that method, obvious -- dekoi = that number, number of those things right there
- yada = that person (not present) -- yana = that place (not visible AND beyond easy reach [a closed door makes the room beyond invisible, but you'd still refer to it as "dena"]) -- yale = that thing (not present or in reach) -- yafa = that event (of another time, or happening elsewhere) -- yazhai = that reason (rare) -- yarou = that method (rare or dialectal) -- yakoi = that number, number of things not present
- soda = some person, someone -- sona = some place, somewhere -- sole = something (an actual being or thing) -- sofa = some event, something (happening) -- sozhai = for some reason -- sorou = somehow -- sokoi = some number, some amount
