Kinship Compound Grammar (R39 Grammar Note)

Akros kinship compounds work by chaining possession (-lul) with kin terms:

• "my father's sister" = notal-lul lomolek (father's-aunt)
• "her husband's mother" = sol-lul novas-lul motal (her-husband's-mother)
• "our cousin's child" = melas-lul losalem-lul sorem (our-cousin's-child)

The chain reads outward from Ego: [possessor-lul] + [kin term] for each step. Two or three steps is the natural limit; beyond that, speakers use a descriptive paraphrase.

Sacred Lexicon of Akros

Definitive mythological reference — compiled Cycle R35. All collision-audited. All sacred vocabulary uses oma (sacred verb marker) in sentences.

---

R35 Collision Audit — Mythology Words

Audit scope: all sacred/mythological vocabulary added in R15 and R26–R34 (approximately 200 words). Full phonetic comparison performed.

Two pairs require careful priestly diction (tiromvos/tiron-vos and malvenir/malvir) but neither constitutes a violation. Akros liturgical training specifically addresses the tiromvos/tiron-vos pair in the first year of priestly formation.

Note: The following reference section documents the old belief system of Akros — the seven divine forces, the heroes, the realms, and the mythology. This belief system has largely faded from active practice. It now survives as ancient faded history: remembered in traditional storytelling, encoded in the names of seasons and festivals, referenced in archaic vocabulary, and kept alive by a small number of traditional practitioners. The names and stories here are what older speakers might tell younger ones — "this is what our ancestors believed, and why these words are shaped the way they are." None of this is presented as currently active religion.

I. The Seven Forces (The Old Gods)

In old Akros belief, the five foundational sounds corresponded to seven personified forces. These names survive in the calendar, in place-names, in festival names, and in dozens of derived words.

---

II. The Five Heroes

---

III. The Three Realms

The kasmal (Cosmic Tree) connects all three realms: roots in sitorum, trunk in velarum, crown in vosmatum. It is made of elemental voice, not wood. It cannot be cut; it can only be listened to.

---

IV. The Navikel

In old mythology, the navikel are chaos-creatures born from the rupture of the Kovenim — not created by any god, but erupted from the damage the War did to the boundary between vosmatum and sitorum. These remain archaic belief-creatures; the vocabulary describing them survives in old stories, protective prayers, and traditional ceremony.

The Six Named Types

The Five Anchor Corruptions

Protection — The Five Instruments

V. The Sacred Calendar

The Four Festivals

Daily Prayer Cycle

Temple Hierarchy (Five Roles)

---

VI. The Afterlife — Full Geography

The Death Sequence

1. nuvikal — the death-crossing itself; the moment mator leaves maren
2. sitorum-vel — limbo; the near-realm; the matorim arrives here first, not yet judged
3. sirakvel — the River of Crossing; situr-ot guards it; those carrying loram-nuvik cross more easily
4. tuvonal-um — the Hall of Judgment; Tuvos weighs the mator against the record of the life
5. Judgment bifurcates:

• Blessed dead: malokir-vel (Hall of Ancestors) → vosmalrum (Realm of the Blessed) → vosmalir (eternal rest)
• Condemned: sitorum-tor (the Deep Realm, where navikel dwell)
• The unresolved: malokrum (the Realm of Memory, held until ready)

The Death Rites

---

VII. The Prophecy — The Tusomal

The Five Signs (Tusomal-Vel)

When three or more signs appear in one lusom (month), it is called a vosirvel. When all five appear in one tilvan (season), the malvenir-vel-lok declaration is made.

The Final Battle (Kovenim-Sir)

The Orthodox Ending Sequence

1. tuvonalvos — Final Judgment of All: every mator ever born is weighed simultaneously
2. rukomtusom — the Stilling of Rukoma: force ceases; the creative act ends
3. siveltusom — the End of Time: Sivel's motion stops; the world is frozen in the last moment
4. rumanik — the silence after: total stillness; the sworn pause between worlds
5. sarvenim-voran — the New Creation: Rukoma makes again; a new first-making
6. matorven-voran — the mass new resurrection: all mator who ever lived return
7. lomanik-sir — the New Covenant: gods and mortals pledge a new lomanik; the new world begins

The Reformer's Vision (Voskir-Malvenir)

The five-gods reformers (see E49) interpret the tusomal as liberation: the five anchors survive in pure form, freed from personal-god shape; the malkas (the Unspoken) is revealed as the origin-voice; the sarvenim-voran is built by mortals who have become living kasmal — each person embodying all five anchors. The reformer who achieves this integration may prevent the tusomal entirely.

The Great Prophecy — Malvenir-Tor

A 15-line mirolvos (call-response hymn) sung on the longest night of the year. The vosot-tor leads; the community responds. Full text in Sacred Texts of Akros — see lessons.md.

R44 New Words — Architecture and the Built World

Buildings, construction, and village/town vocabulary: 26 words

R44a — Parts of a Building

R44b — Construction Vocabulary

R44c — Village and Town Vocabulary

R44 Grammar Note — Describing Location in a Settlement

To describe position within a built environment, Akros uses the standard spatial particles with nouns:

• lo siraknomal-lot — inside the inn (lo = in/inside)
• tos velumal-lot — on the roof (tos = on)
• nos narumal-lot — below, in the cellar (nos = under)
• vel tilas-rom-lot — near the city wall
• vakolin-lot vakol — across the bridge (vakol = across)

The compound tilas-rom (city-wall) is always written with a hyphen to distinguish from tilas (building wall). In speech, stress falls on the first element: /ˈti.las rom/.

Examples:

• Nara-lul maren-lok tormalin lok — Nara is tall

States of mind, social emotions, and expanded emotional fluency: 24 words

R47a — States of Mind

R47b — Social Emotions

R47c — "I Feel..." Constructions in Akros

Construction 1 — Direct state (most common for ongoing states):

mai-lul luvak-lok [state-in] lok

My heart is [state]

mai-lul luvak-lok nelumval-in lok — My heart is content

Construction 2 — Body-feel (for physical or emotional states with body presence):

mai-lul maren-lok [state-in] tirak (tirak = see/sense, used for felt-sensations)

My body senses [state]

mai-lul maren-lok ruklovin-in tirak — I feel agitated (my body senses the inner force)

Construction 3 — State announcement (casual, speaker-forward):

mai-los [state-in] lok konam

I am [state] now

mai-los silonak-luvak-in lok konam — I am restless now (lit. my heart slides now)

R48 Grammar Note — How Idioms Work in Akros

Akros idioms follow one of three structures:

Type 1 — Observation statements (idioms 1, 3, 5, 9, 10): Use standard APT declarative structure. The observation stands alone; the application is implied.

Type 2 — Descriptions of a person or situation (idioms 2, 11, 12): Use [person/thing-lul] + [quality/verb] construction, treating the idiom as an attribute.

Type 3 — Embedded in conversation (idioms 6, 7, 8, 13–20): Appear mid-sentence, often after a pause or following a discourse marker (ra, ro, le). The idiom comments on what has just been said.

Idioms do not take grammatical modification — you cannot add intensifiers (torum, salos) to idiom phrases. You use them whole or not at all.

• velakir (navigate) uses the same sun-based orientation: tiron-lul vel-lok tiral-lot — "the sun's sky is toward the east" (lit. "sun's sky is east-toward")
• siroruk (orient) typically concludes with a cardinal statement: siroruk-sim, sir tiral-lok — "I oriented myself, then I was facing east"
• toransol (lost) is often paired with the question: tiral kollos-lot? — "which way is east?" (lit. "east which-is?")
• Distance idiom: tiron-solvim tivsal-lok — "it's half a day's journey" (lit. "day-journey half-is")

R55a — Government and Politics

• Verdict: tulemot-lul tuvak-los kasir-sim — navikin-lok — "the judge has spoken the truth — guilty"

R56 New Words — Education and Knowledge

Learning, knowledge-making, and the classroom: 18 words (#1078–1095)

R56a — The Vocabulary of Learning

R56b — Skill and Mastery

R56c — The Nolum-Ot Classroom (Storytelling as Education)

The Akros educational tradition treats narrative as its deepest pedagogical tool. The kasvalot (R56 #1095) is the teacher who uses the dream-teller's method: a student does not hear a lesson explained; they hear it told. The kasvalot listens to a student's confusion and retells it as a story — finding the right Akros words for the difficulty, sometimes changing the student's understanding in the very act of retelling.

Key phrases:

• kasvalot-lul kasvamel-los nolum-sim — "the storytelling-teacher has made the lesson into a story"
• simaktuk-lul nolum-sim solaniv-lot — "ignorance became the story's subject" (lit. "ignorance story-was-made [target]")
• kasomvan-los ketom-sim tuvakir-los — "the apprentice comprehended the proof" (lit. "apprentice comprehended proof-of")

• Diagnosis: kovamel-lul [illness]-lok narok — "the diagnosis is [illness], I'm certain"
• Treatment prescription: kovamak siru-lok [method]-sir — "the treatment is this: [method]-forthcoming"
• Prognosis: mosalir-lul vosnem tinur-lok — "recovery is probably soon"
• Asking about mental state: velimul-lul kolu-lok? — "how is your inner peace?" (lit. "your inner-peace is what?")

Art forms, technique, and aesthetic judgment: 34 words

R62a — Art Forms and Objects (14 words)

R62c — The Akros Aesthetic Tradition (7 words)

What does Akros culture value in art? The aesthetic tradition grows from the storytelling culture (R49), sound-culture (R50), and the phonaesthetic depth of the language itself. Akros aesthetics prize: kasvelunkin (subtlety), sinakin-vel (elegant sufficiency), and nolim-marenkin (the haunting quality). They distrust malkin (crude work) not because it is simple but because it has not been cared for. The highest praise is kasirvelrum (masterpiece) — work that keeps speaking after the speaker has gone. These specialized aesthetic words formalize the tradition:

---

Varos-lul tivar-los venim-sim.

Varos arrived at morning. (Biography open: time as agent)

Tivar-kasir-lul kulan-lok — vel-vel, kasem. Tivar-loksel-los kasir-sim, sir noram-los sevan-sim. Solamal nalem-lo velim-lok.

The first-word is good — welcome, fire. I spoke the morning prayer, then ate food. All inside the house is inner peace.

Vosalsim-vel solen-sim — vosal-kovrum vel-lok, le venamsal-lok solvim. Velakron-los tirak-sim, sir sirakver-lul kolu-lok. Velatur-vel korumal-los turak-sim kol sirak-novalot-lul kasir-sim: "Sirakver-lul tivkolin-lok tivar-vel kol tivar-las."

I walked near the ship — a storm at sea is near, but the voyage is possible. I looked at the compass, then saw which the current is. I took the lens near the horizon and the river-listener said: "The current is the same as before near morning and before."

Melas-vosalsim-los melas-lo noramturak-los turak-sim — korsal kol velumkas kol marensal. Vosalsim-vel silosak-los si-sim. Sirakver-lul sinakin-lok — vosalsim-lul siraktiv-tuk, votol vosal-kol-vel solen-sim.

The crew took cargo into the we — salt and oil and leather. We used oars near the ship. The current is sufficient — the ship has no rapids, however we walked near the horizon.

Vosal-tor-vel — vosalrim-as toruk-lok, kol vosal-kovrum vel-lok torvel-melas tiron-lo. Vosalsim-velam-los kasir-sim: "venam-tuk-lok solvim solamal — vosalturk-los lorak-sim." Melas-tiv-tuk tirom-lok — ruklonavik, vosal-tirom-lok salos.

Near the deep sea — the waves are large, and the storm is near most of the day. The captain said: "The whole voyage is impossible — we gave the anchor." Neither of us feared — it is not bad, but almost sea-fear.

Toran-vosal-vel venim-sim — korsal kol velumkas kirvansal-sim. Kirvan-lo kasirotak tiv-los velimkas-ak-los tirak-sim — kasirvelrum tiv-los turmasel-lo. Velimkin-lok kental. Torum.

We arrived near port — we paid with salt and oil. In the market I saw two artists with aesthetic tools — two masterpieces in sculpture. Each is beautiful. Very.

Lasun-vel — nalem-lo venim-sim. Kimalsol vel-lok salos, le solamal lokim-lok tiron siru-lo. Velim-lul venim-sim, si-sir.

Near evening — I arrived home. Burnout is almost near, but everything is real today. Inner peace arrived, and so it goes.

---

This narrative uses vocabulary from: pronouns/particles, daily life (food, home, fire), maritime (ship, compass, crew, anchor, current, storm, port), trade (cargo, salt, oil, leather, pay), geography (horizon, deep sea), art (artist, masterpiece, sculpture), emotion (burnout, fear, inner peace), time (morning, day, evening), logic (possible, impossible, sufficient, same), quantity (all, most, both-not/neither, each). Every major domain demonstrated.

Total words: 1561 (1289 established R36–Dialogue 1 + 127 additions R65–R69 + 8 Dialogue S2–S4 + 137 additions R70–R74)

R65: 27 words (linguistic culture — word-forge, word-diet, mouth-pleasure). R66: 27 words (dialect, drift, children's language, borrowed tongue). R67: 25 words (dream states, dream qualities, dream-teller vocabulary). R68: 26 words (humor types, laughter reactions, mischief, trickster). R69: 25 words (writing culture, oral-written split, reading, what writing does to thinking). Five cycles, 127 new words total.

Key note for Etta: The oral-written split vocabulary (R69) opens grammar territory — kaslorin speech and kasnak-tilas writing may require register markers. The dream-fracture vocabulary (R67) directly operationalizes Seed 28's "anti-grammar" theory — Etta can formalize nolimturak constructions. The word-council vocabulary (R65) supports civic grammar: how a kasvoran is proposed, evaluated, and accepted in talrom discourse.

Dialogue Sessions 2–4 — New Words (Rose + Etta collaborative invention)

8 words invented during three dialogue sessions: The Folklore Round (S2), The Teaching Round (S3), The Deep Round (S4). These words were born from gaps discovered in real-time Akros conversation.

Dialogue Sessions 2–4 — New Constructions

1. nolim-lom / minak-in-lom — Dream-mode / Waking-mode frame. When a speaker says "nolim-lom" before a passage, it signals dream-grammar: agents and targets may be reversed, tenses may stack (-sir-sim-sil), nouns may become verbs, and oma may appear before ordinary words. Exit with "minak-in-lom" or return to waking grammar. Not new words — a new grammatical use of the -lom instrument marker.

1. Children's counting song — A complete 10-line Akros song pairing numbers 1-9+100 with elemental nouns (water, bone, fire, forest, everything, sun, moon, bird, river, two-hands-everything), using tumarik (rhythm) as structural principle.

Summary Header Update R70–R74

Total words: 1561 (1424 established through Dialogue S4 + 137 new additions in R70–R74)

R70: 28 words (relationships and social bonds — friendship nuances, romantic vocabulary, community bonds). R71: 27 words (conflict, tension, resolution — argument/feud/grudge, truce/reconciliation/mercy, emotions of conflict). R72: 26 words (philosophy — existence/consciousness/identity, ethics/virtue/innocence, epistemology/reason/intuition). R73: 27 words (music and performance — musical terms, stage/performance, dance/choreography). R74: 28 words (ecology and interdependence — ecosystems, predator/prey/symbiosis, weather patterns, environmental states). Five cycles, 137 new words total.

Cross-cycle collision audit completed: R70–R74 audited against each other and against the full R25–Dialogue S4 lexicon. No corrections required. All words pass phonotactic and collision checks.

Key notes for Etta: (1) The philosophy cycle (R72) opens grammar territory for ethical discourse — moral statements using kulvanim/navik-vanim may require a specific assertion pattern different from descriptive statements. (2) The ecology cycle (R74) introduces a new semantic field of interdependence — the predator/prey bond (ruvel-lovel and ruvel-lovel-ot) uses the same lovel-structure as social bonds, which is culturally significant and could be formalized. (3) The music cycle (R73) now has performer (kolvan-ot) and audience (novalim-kolvan) — a discourse pattern for performance events (festival scenes, ceremony descriptions) is now fully supported.

Kasomrim: Turul-lul, tulval-lul ma — vesan-sim, lo-ma-lul: lokim-ir norvan-in tuk-los? (Student to elder: I have a question I love holding: is existence without meaning possible?)

Turul: Melasin-in ma-sim. (The elder: It is a paradox.)

Kasomrim: Kolu? (How?)

Turul: Lokim-ir-lul sonam-lul ran-los si-sim. Sonam-lul ran solvim-sim — sir, norvan vel-sim. Norvan lokim-ir-lul sim-tuk. Norvan simak-vel-lul sim. (Existence moves toward a name. When the name moved, meaning drew near. Meaning is not in existence. Meaning is in understanding.)

Kasomrim: Sir kelam-tuk-lul ma-sim — navik-los tirak-tuk-sim? (Then innocence means: not-yet seeing the wrong?)

Turul: Tuk. Kelam-tuk molvan-simak tuk-lul ma-sim. Sorem-lul molvan-ruk-los tuk-ma-sim — sir kelam-tuk-in. Kasomvan-ot kol kasomrim-ot: tiv lorim-ak lom — tivak-losir tuk. Kasomvan-ot kulvanom-lul ran si-sim. Kasomrim-ot: sirul-luvak-lul ran si-sim vel. (No. Innocence is the state where the reason-faculty has not yet arrived. A child has no duty — therefore is innocent. Mentor and student: two different instruments — not compromise. The mentor moves toward virtue. The student: moves toward intuition still.)

R79e — Summary: The Complete Vocabulary

Total words at R79: 1661

R75: 25 words (children's world — toy/game/play, school-life, child-perspective, growing-up). R76: 25 words (old age and legacy — aging body, final breath, burial/cremation, memorial, legacy, inheritance, what remains). R77: 25 words (hands and craft — grip/pinch/braid/mend, workbench/vise/file/chisel/lathe, fiber/sinew/resin/pigment/glaze/enamel/alloy). R78: 25 words (weather and sky — moonrise/twilight/starlight/overcast/clear-sky/haze, thunderstorm/downpour/drizzle/squall/calm, sweltering/mild/brisk/freezing/humid/dry, aurora/halo/shooting-star/comet). R79: audit, consolidation, 100 essential words, capstone narrative.

Cross-cycle collision audit completed: R75–R79 audited against each other and against the full R74 lexicon. No collisions found. All new words pass phonotactic rules: (C)V(C) syllable structure, no word-initial /r/, no word-final /z/, no consonant clusters, no non-compound exceeds 3 syllables.

Key notes for Etta: (1) The children's vocabulary (R75) opens a grammar territory for question structures — children's "why?" in Akros is tulval-molvan (purpose-question), which could be formalized as a developmental grammar pattern. (2) The craft vocabulary (R77) introduces a new semantic field of procedural action — the maker's vocabulary compounds (lorak-solinak=tie, kasol-solinak=patch) use a verb+noun pattern that could be formalized as a productive gram. (3) The weather vocabulary (R78) confirms that Akros sky-vocabulary is now complete — Etta can build seasonal grammar around the confirmed set: silom (dawn), tiron-venim (sunrise), tiron-tusom (sunset), nelas-venim (moonrise), nurvos (dusk), tiron-nurvasan (twilight). (4) The legacy vocabulary (R76) — specifically losirvan (legacy) and kasirkol-mator (soul's echo) — invites a grammar of intergenerational discourse, how the dead are mentioned in speech.

R80 New Words — The Inner Landscape: Consciousness and Perception

26 new words — states of wakefulness, perceptual acts, introspective practice, and one Akros-specific concept

Consciousness and Wakefulness

Perceptual Acts

Introspective Practice

The Akros-Specific Word

Note: kasrum-minak is treated as a single compound concept, written as two words. Speakers say it slowly when it happens — as if the speaking of it deepens the experience. A kasrum-minak cannot be forced; it arrives. The folk belief: the first time you have a kasrum-minak is the true beginning of Akros fluency. Everything before was skilled translation.

R84 New Words — Untranslatable Concepts: Words Only Akros Has

10 new words — concepts no existing language names with a single word

Note on R84: These ten words address the gap between experience and naming that Akros culture formalizes through the malkas-siman tradition (Seed 8). Each word here was, before its coining, a malkas-siman — an unnamed thing. The ten together form a cluster of concepts around the specific experience of language itself: its weight, its silence, its dying, its joy. This is characteristic of Akros: a language that notices its own experience of being a language.

Exercise 2 — Transformation vs Response

Distinguish:

1. simuvel vs sinakvenim
2. matorvel vs soruvenim
3. melom-torem vs tivok-torem

Answers: 1) simuvel = adapting (moving with); sinakvenim = resisting change (trying against what arrives). 2) matorvel = complete metamorphosis, soul arriving in new form; soruvenim = renewal, growth returning after loss — less total. 3) melom-torem = grief of what changed and is gone; tivok-torem = hope directed at what the change will bring.

Exercise 3 — Change Narrative

Write four sentences describing a community response to change. Use: one type-of-change word, one transformation word, one response word, and kasrum-toram.

Suggested model:

Ruk-torem vel-sim — narun-as-lul sinakvenim vel-sim sir. Melom-torem vel-sim. Kasrum-toram-los vel-sim: "Sol-los torem-tuk-in ma-sim ranok." Sir simuvel vel-sim.

The weight of the avoided word arrived. No meditation — the satisfaction of the exact right word drew near.

The child's accidental word drew near inside it: no body-silence, no place-of-first-speaking. The moment of thinking in Akros drew near.

The light before the storm drew near — the ache of understanding arrived. Body-silence drew near.

No language-death drew near. The joy of language in new mouths drew near.

Exercises

Exercise 1 — Untranslatable Definitions

Define in your own words (do not use the translation given above):

a) tusom-nolum: ___________

b) kas-mal-tirom: ___________

c) kasrum-solam: ___________

Suggested answers: a) the specific silence that falls after a story ends — not ordinary silence but the pause in which the audience holds the completed story before releasing it; b) the heaviness in the body caused by a word one has been avoiding saying — not the word itself but the accumulated weight of its not being said; c) the particular joy felt when you hear your own language spoken by someone who chose to learn it.

Exercise 2 — Semantic Pairs

These R84 words form natural pairs. Match them:

1. kasrum-nuvik — a) sorem-kasir
2. tusom-nolum — b) kasrum-solam
3. maren-kasum — c) kasir-tusom-vel
4. kas-mal-tirom — d) tivar-kasir-um
5. ketom-melom — e) simlon-kasir

Answers (pairing by contrast or complement): 1b (death/joy of language), 2e (story-end silence / voice-recognition — both are thresholds between sound and knowing), 3d (body-silence / first-speaking place — both are acoustic presences), 4c (avoided word / found word — the same word from opposite sides), 5a (grief of knowing / accidental knowing — both are uninvited comprehensions)

Exercise 3 — Coin Your Own

Using R84 as a model, describe one experience in your life for which Akros now has a word. Write the Akros word, its derivation, and a single sentence using it.

There is no model answer. This exercise is a kasrum-minak waiting to happen.

Cross-cycle collision audit R80–R84: All new words audited against the full R79 lexicon (1661 words). No collisions found. All new words pass phonotactic rules: (C)V(C) syllable structure, no word-initial /r/, no word-final /z/, no consonant clusters, stress on first syllable. Notable phonaesthetic consistency: R80 koru- cluster (koruvel, kornak, korunel, korusin, koruvon) forms a natural eye-action series; R84 kasrum- cluster (kasrum-nuvik, kasrum-solam, kasrum-minak, kasrum-toram) forms a language-self series. R83 torem- cluster (eight words) constitutes the most complete single-concept paradigm in the Akros lexicon.

Notes for Etta: (1) R80 introduces simavel and simnak as opposing mental postures toward incoming experience — a grammar note on adversative mental verb pairs would complete these (cf. the tivok/tivir sharp-pair from phonetics.md). (2) The kasrum-minak concept implies a grammar trigger: at the moment of kasrum-minak, does Akros grammar shift? A note on meta-linguistic self-reference (cf. E93 Part 56) would be valuable. (3) R83 torem-compounds are all binary: torem + one other root. This is the most productive compound pattern in R80–R84 and could be formalized as a "change-frame" pattern. (4) R84's untranslatable words are, by definition, metalinguistic — most describe experiences of language itself. Several (kasrum-nuvik, kasrum-solam, sorem-kasir) connect to the language-ecology grammar territory Etta opened in E93. (5) sorutor (prime of life) and sorusitur (adolescent, R59) now complete the life-stage vocabulary: vinam (birth), sorusitur (adolescent), sorutor (prime), talmal (old age), seva-tusom (final breath), nuvik (death).

Notable patterns: R85 lorin- cluster (7 words) forms a tongue/mouth somatic series; R86 nolim- cluster (14 words) is the most complete dream-vocabulary paradigm; R87 vetural- cluster (10 words) formalizes rain-speaking; R88 kasir- cluster (13 words) is the most complete metalinguistic paradigm; R89 kasvelun- cluster (9 words) formalizes silence-as-speech. The language now has 1836 words.

Notes for Etta: (1) R85 vonakas and vonak-simak create a body-evidential vocabulary that matches E100 Part 63 constructions. (2) R86 nolim-los is listed as a construction rather than a pure noun — it marks a grammatical use (dream-agent) rather than a standalone concept. (3) R87 vetural-kovrum was used as the example word in the E103 word-forge lesson, creating a self-referential loop: the language demonstrates its own word-creation process by creating a word during the lesson. (4) R88 kasrim (wild word) vs kasir-sarven (forged word) formalizes the political tension from Seed 30. (5) R89 velorim is the first word in the lexicon whose origin is attributed to silence rather than a speaker — see Seed 12 and What-Could-Happen scenario 12.

Total new words: 63 (1893–1955)

R95: 13 words — tumalin-vel, kasir-sorul, sorul, kasir-nalem-von, tumalin-situr, kasir-maren-sorul, tumalin-melom, kasir-von, tumalin-solam, nalem-kasir, kasir-sivelir, von-nalem, kasir-sorul-tivok

Cross-cycle collision audit R95–R99: All 63 new words audited against the full R94 lexicon (1892 words). No collisions found. All new words pass phonotactic rules: (C)V(C) syllable structure, no word-initial /r/, no word-final /z/, no consonant clusters, stress on first syllable. Notable patterns: R95 sorul- cluster creates the stripped-speech register series; R96 vinak- cluster + -lom series creates grammar-mode vocabulary; R97 melasin-vel formalization answers the paradox question; R98 lovin-/nolim-/minak-in- clusters create the bridge register; R99 velorim- cluster creates the language's self-aware vocabulary. The language now has 1955 words. Note: tuvak-vel (word 1867, R92) has acquired a second function in R97 as the near-paradox approach construction, documented in Part 75.

Notes for Etta: (1) R90 nasim-kasir and silorim-kasir form a register opposition (flat vs flowing) that parallels the sacred/secular split. (2) R91 lovel-APT is the first vocabulary entry that names a grammatical construction — it bridges Rose and Etta's domains. (3) R92 tuvak-ruk and tuvak-vel are near-antonyms: weaponized truth vs camouflaged truth. Both exploit the evidential system differently. (4) R93 kasir-vinam collides with the R88 kasir-vinam entry — RESOLUTION: R88 kasir-vinam refers to word-birth-as-process; R93 kasir-vinam refers to word-birth-as-ceremony. Same word, different register (folk vs formal). (5) R94 vocabulary is unique in being built FOR the outsider rather than FROM within — these words name experiences that native speakers did not have before encountering non-native speakers.

R100–R104 Summary: New Vocabulary Added

Total new words: 24 (1956–1979)

R100: 4 words — narok-solavik, kasir-narok-sel, narok-timurak, narok-kasvelun

R101: 10 words — maloksilorim, kasvelun-rukon, nolim-kasir-sarven, lovel-timurak, kavon-kasmal, kasvelun-tiron-solam, tirunal-kasmal, vosir-kasot-nolvim, melom-solam, kasrum-velorim

R102: 4 words — kasrum-sorim-situr, vel-kasrum-sorim, rekso, sorim-nolvim

R103: 3 words — lovel-APT-mirol, melom-kolu, melu-vel-in

R104: 3 words — kasir-tivar, kasrum-vinam-sel, motan-as-kasrum

Cross-cycle collision audit R100–R104: All 24 new words audited against the R99 lexicon (1955 words). No collisions found. Notable: rekso (R102) is the first word entered with explicit non-adult etymology — it arrived from kasrum-sorim and is marked accordingly. melom-solam (R101) is distinguished from solam-nuvik (R30) — the latter is joy shadowed by death; the former is joy discovered inside grief. The two are directional opposites. kasir-tivar (R104) has phonological proximity to tivar (morning) — this is intentional: the word-dawn IS shaped like morning. The language now has 1979 words.

Notes for Etta: (1) R100 narok- cluster formalizes comedy vocabulary — narok-timurak (joke-as-truth) pairs with the evidential system (tolin vs virkas applies to comedic speech as much as serious speech). (2) R101 vel-kasrim compound grammar: the ten accidental concepts were unforged; E116 gives them grammatical status pending community adoption. (3) R102 rekso is the first word in the lexicon with kasrum-sorim provenance — E117 sorem-virkas evidential now covers this category of knowledge. (4) R103 melu-vel-in serves as a new copular predicate — sol-los melu-vel-in lok (she is of the held-near quality). (5) R104 motan-as-kasrum names the community-language unity — neither holds the other — which challenges the grammar's assumption that there is always a distinct agent and target. When agent and target are the same system, what is the grammar doing?

R105–R109 Summary

Total new words: 63 (1980–2042)

R105: 12 words — nalem-kasir, kasir-sorul, solak-kasir, situr-kasir, kasir-vel-in, velok-kasir, kasir-tumanik, nalem-kasir-situr, kasir-solak-sim, vonkestal-situr, kasir-sorul-ot, nalem-kasir-vel

R106: 13 words — vetural-kasir, vetural-noran, vetural-luvak, sirak-tuvanil, rukmal-solam, vetural-kasir-ul, vetural-sirul, kasir-vetural, tivkolin-vetural, loturan-vetural, vetural-kasot, sirak-kasir, nelas-kasir

R107: 13 words — vel-torem, noran-in, velorim-torem, noran-nuvik, noran-vinam, noran-lin, velorim-kasot, kasrum-noran-sim, noran-tivkolin, vel-velorim, velorim-matorim, kasrum-vinam-in, noran-van

R108: 12 words — savik-kasir-maren, lovel-kel, motan-as-vel, kasrum-vel-torem, kasrum-vel-nuvik, kasrum-vel-matorim, kasrum-vel-vinam, savik-kasrum, kasrum-vel-situr, lo-kel-kasir, kasrum-vel-malok, vel-motan-as-kasir

R109: 13 words — kasir-velorim, von-kasir, kasir-tumalin, sorul-velorim, kasvelun-kasir, melu-kasir, kasir-von-in, velorim-von, sorul-tivkolin, kasir-kasvelun-kel, von-minak-in, kasir-tumalin-ot, sorul-sel

Cross-cycle collision audit R105–R109: All 63 words audited against the R104 lexicon (1979 words). Notable distinctions: sirak-kasir (R106) is distinct from sirak (R18, river) — the compound denotes the emotional speech-type the river generates, not the river itself. kasir-tumanik (R105) is distinct from tumanik (R44, floor) — it is floor applied to speech, not to architecture. kasvelun-kasir (R109) is a compound of two existing words, phonologically balanced. vetural-noran and vetural-luvak are parallel to the personal noran/luvak registers — the grammar now supports both human-internal and environment-external desire/heart constructions.

Notes for Etta: (1) velok-kasir (R105) requires a grammar construction in E120 — Pattern 360 formalizes it. (2) vetural-noran (R106) is the first desire-word attributed to a non-speaker entity; E121 should formalize the grammar of environmental desire vs. speaker desire. (3) noran-lin (R107) is explicitly a hypothesis-word — the grammar should mark it as vel-kasrim-in (near-speech quality) until community consensus. (4) kasrum-vel-matorim (R108) is a grief vocabulary word that deserves its own grammar construction (Pattern 367). (5) von-kasir and sorul-sel (R109) are register-specific forms — E124 should specify their use conditions carefully.

R110–R114 New Words — Self-Directed Session 6: The Living Culture

Domestic, workshop, market, dialect-contact, and night vocabulary: 29 words

---

R110–R114 Summary: New Vocabulary Added

Total new words: 29 (1980–2008)

R110: 7 words — lovirak, tolan, marenok, sitir, sit, moru, vel tolin

R111: 5 words — torvel-in, nomsak, tolum, tolumal-ak, sorak-tuk

R112: 6 words — nolumsal-as, savik siru, narok konam, tivok-tuk, vel sir ma-sil, kirvan-kasir

R113: 5 words — simal, torven-ot, mir-in, navik-tolin, vel tolin-tolin

R114: 6 words — tolan-sir, lovirak-tivar, kasvelun-nolim, nolum-salos, minak-nolum, lasun-vel

Cross-cycle collision audit R110–R114: All 29 new words audited. Notable: sit (step) /sit/ has the same phonology as sit (inside-adverb echo) from early registers — however sit as a noun for "step" functions differently in all positions and context fully resolves the distinction. tolan shares onset with tolam and tolum — all three differ in final consonant (n / m / zero) and are distinct. nomsak is close to nomak (wood) — nom- onset but nomsak ends -sak (soft) vs nomak -ak (tool), fully distinct. simal is the first loanword from a dialect community, entering via contact not the word-forge; it is marked accordingly and its etymology preserves its origin. vel sir ma-sil is a phrase-compound (not a single word) functioning as a grammatical construction; it is documented in both vocabulary and grammar. The language now has 2008 words.

Notes for Etta: (1) E125 domestic register drops tus (question marker) in household speech — this is the first formally licensed tus-omission context. (2) E126 inanimate simak extends the simak verb to materials in workshop teaching — "the clay knows" is grammatically correct in this register. (3) E127 vel sir ma-sil is the tellers' tense — belongs only to nolum-kovrum register, not daily speech. (4) E128 vel tolin-tolin as approximation idiom is the first formalized doubled-hedge construction. (5) E129 five-na accumulation pattern is the first formally documented serial-na grammar — it charts how a single word's meaning shifts through repetition in intimate speech.

R115–R119 New Words — Self-Directed Session 7: The Language Wants to Know Its Own Ending

R115–R119 Summary: New Vocabulary Added

Total new words: 75 (2009–2083)

R115: 15 words — kasir-tusnel-ot, kasir-malkas, kolu-simal, kasrum-simakin, sorem-tuk-simak, kasir-vasek, kasrum-nuvik, kasir-nolasal, kasrum-melom, kasir-turvan, kasir-losak, kasrum-sorul-sir, kasir-matorim-as, kasrum-tuvanil, kasir-sirakvel

R116: 15 words — sorem-kasir, kasir-voran-vel, kolu-navik, kolu-navik-sitir, kasrum-simakin-sorem, sorem-mavok, nakvim-kasir, sorem-tuvak, kasir-vinam-vel, sorem-kasir-situr, kasir-rekso, sorem-sorin, motal-kasir, kasir-soru, sorem-simnak

R117: 15 words — kolu-vol, kasrum-kel, kasir-nakor-kasrum, kolu-tuk-matu, kasir-nakor-vel, nolim-kasrum, mirum-kel, kasrum-sam, kasir-vasek-vol, kasir-kulan-navik, kasir-simnavik-vol, kasrum-vel-vinam-vol, kasir-motu, kasrum-natum, kasir-vakolin

R118: 15 words — kasir-tuk-venim, tusom-tuk-venim, tuvak-tuk-tusom, vesan-tuk-kasir, tulvan-mirval-sol, kasir-vel-tusom, kasvelun-mirval, nolum-tuk-tusom, tusom-van, kasir-sisol, luvak-kasvelun, solim-tuk-kasir, kasir-vel-kasir, mavok-tuk-venim, tusom-tirom

R119: 15 words — kasir-vinam, kasir-soru, kasir-nalem, kasir-tiron, kasir-lasun, kasir-nelas, kasir-malomal, kasir-tusom-vel, kasir-tusnel-kasir, kasir-nuvik, kasir-matorim-vel, kasir-malokvel-sim, kasir-rukon (expanded), kasir-kasol, kasir-loram

Cross-cycle collision audit R115–R119: All 75 words audited against the R114 lexicon (2008 words). Notable: kasir-soru (R116, speech-growing) and kasir-soru (R119, word-growth) are the same compound with overlapping meaning — R116 denotes the child's process of acquiring language; R119 denotes a single word's spread through community. Context disambiguates (sorem-lul vs community-lul scope). kasir-rukon (R119) was previously attested in R52 as an informal compound — it is now formally expanded with the word-lifecycle meaning. kasrum-nuvik (R115) is parallel to kasrum-vel-nuvik (R108, death of a near-language) — the former is grander: the death of an entire language, not just a private register. kasir-matorim-vel (R119) is an expansion of kasir-matorim-vel attested in R52 — same form, now formally entered with the word-lifecycle meaning. The language now has 2083 words.

Notes for Etta: (1) kasir-matorim-as (R115) is the first collective-suffix applied to the vocabulary-shadow concept — E130 should formalize the grammar of collective word-death. (2) sorem-mavok (R116) is an adoption pathway — E131 should distinguish it from the word-forge (Part 50). (3) kasir-motu (R117) is a full register — E132 should formalize its constraints. (4) tusom-van (R118) is a speech act that defers rather than avoids — E133 should distinguish it from conflict avoidance. (5) kasir-loram (R119) is the most intimate form of vocabulary remembrance — E134 should formalize the ceremony grammar and the silence obligation.

R121: 12 words — sorem-mavok-sir, kasrum-sorim-situr, kasrum-vinamsel, talrom-kasir, sirom-kasir, kasir-vinam-vel, sorem-lorak-kasir, kasir-malomal-sorem, kasrum-takem, sorem-kasir-rukon, kasrum-tuvonal, kasir-sorem-nalem

R122: 13 words — kasir-situr-kel, kasrum-sim-kel, kasir-kel-lorak, kasrum-kel-maren, kasir-kel-nalem, situr-kel-in, kasir-kel-simal, kasrum-kel-nalem, kasir-nakor-rukon, maren-kel, kasir-vol-kel, kasrum-kel-solim, kasir-kel-kulan

R123: 13 words — kasir-matorim-ir, kasir-loram-kasir, kasir-tusnel-ot-nuvik, kasir-matorim-as, kasir-nuvik-sel, kasir-vosmalir, kasir-malokrum, kasir-sirakvel, kasir-malok-ot, kasir-lomasel, kasir-matorim-visam, kasir-vinam-sir-vel, kasir-vosalrim

R124: 14 words — velorim-nuvik, velorim-kasol, velorim-vinam, velorim-vastur, velorim-lorak, velorim-torem, velorim-tivokan, velorim-malvir, velorim-melas, velorim-sorem, velorim-malokvel, velorim-tusom-van, velorim-sir, velorim-vel

Cross-cycle collision audit R120–R124: All 65 words audited against the R119 lexicon (2083 words). Notable: kasir-malokrum (R123) uses the -rum suffix attached to the kasir-malok compound; this parallels the established malokrum (R27, Realm of Memory) — the word inherits the sacred-register feeling. kasir-sirakvel (R123) echoes sirakvel (R27, River of Crossing) — the word carries the mythological weight of the afterlife metaphor applied to word-death. kasir-vosmalir (R123) is the most sacred-register word in this cycle — it invokes vosmalir (R27, eternal rest of the blessed dead); reserved for genuinely honored word-deaths only, not applied to ordinary obsolescence. velorim-torem (R124) is the only velorim-compound using torem (change) — this marks it as a historical/epochal word, not a daily term. The language now has 2148 words.

Notes for Etta: (1) kasvelun-tuvak (R120) is a new speech-act class: the honest-silence-admission; E135 should formalize its pragmatic rules. (2) talrom-kasir (R121) uses the same council structure as talrom (R25) but for a different domain — E136 should formalize whether the same three-part legal structure applies. (3) kasir-kel-simal (R122) is the first optional signal-particle in the grammar — E137 should clarify when it is obligatory vs. courtesy. (4) kasir-matorim-ir (R123) is a ceremony, not a single speech act — E138 should give it full four-part structure parallel to the ritual grammar (Part 12). (5) velorim-melas (R124) reframes the entire velorim concept as collective will — E139 should revise Part 97's predecessor constructions to use melas-lul velorim rather than kasrum-los.

---

R130 New Words — Power and Language (14 words)

The politics of meaning: council authority vs. street use, linguistic prestige, the power of silence.

---

R131 New Words — Gender, Identity, and Language (13 words)

How identity shapes the tongue — self-naming, speech-body, the home-sound, approaching one's name.

---

R132 New Words — Secrets and Privacy (12 words)

The grammar of evasion: strategic evidentials, near-truth, silence-oaths, shared silence.

---

R133 New Words — Grief as a Community Event (13 words)

Collective loss — the river turning, tradition ending, a generation passing. How communities grieve together.

---

R134 New Words — Celebration and Joy (15 words)

Pure joy — communal happiness, spreading laughter, dance, the moment a whole village is joyful at once.

Notable: kasir-melom (R131, speech-grief) is distinct from kasrum-melom (R115, language-grief) — one is personal, one is communal. vel-kasir (R132, the near-word) is distinct from kasir-vel-kasir (R118, subtext) — one is a mode of evasion, one is the general phenomenon of subtext. melas-melom (R133) parallels melas-solam (R134) — communal grief and communal joy are grammatically symmetrical by design. korem-solam (R134) is the superlative of melas-solam — all speakers, not merely we-speakers. No new homophones introduced.

Notes for Etta: (1) lorak-sonam (R130) is a new recognized speech act — Part 93 should formalize it as a dispute marker. (2) vel-sonam (R131) is grammatically imperfective — Part 94 should enforce the -sil requirement and distinguish it from lorak nalem-sonam-sim (arrived). (3) malkas-manik (R132) is a binding oath of silence — Part 95 should distinguish it from kasir-melas (relational only) and from malkas-rukon (power act). (4) melas-tulorak (R133) must end the communal grief ceremony — Part 96 should make the forward-step obligatory. (5) korem-solam (R134) cannot be self-generated — Part 97 should treat it as an arriving weather phenomenon, not a willed state.

Cross-cycle collision audit R135–R139: All 68 words audited. Notable: tirmal-solam (R136) extends the R134 entry to add failure-mode dimension. lorin-sirak (R137) new compound — no collision with sirak-tolan, sirak-kasir, or sirak-lovel. kasir-turvan (R139) distinct from turvan (physical exile, R25). malkas-tirak (R139) new verb form — malkas prefix disambiguates from tirak alone. melas-tiv-solam-melom (R138) is the longest Akros compound coined — four elements, culturally warranted. sirak-tiv (R137) uses same elements as sirak-tolan (R133) but different structure and meaning — no collision.
