Re: [Ladekwa] abbreviations for BAS and POS

The default BAS is not given by a suffix, so I think that's what has to be added in the dictionary, like this:

te[mba(ma)] - to tell (someone) about (something)

That's just the kind of information I was thinking of, although I was thinking of something more like:

te - tell. (mba ma) [Etym: "-te" is the classifier for 'speech act']
