Fa



Okay, we have 'fa,' which is Eo 'igi'  Now we need an 'i^gi.'  The current
'Ho', has a possible problem in that the h might get lost in pronunciation
as a suffix.  What do you think?  Dormho, to go to sleep, etc.

And, then, to go Eo one better, we need opposites for both.  And
intransitive and a transitive 'stop.'  To mean I woke up, I woke you up,
etc.  This would not be the same as 'fin,' finish.  Go finkom.  I finish
eating.  It would just mean to stop, cease.  Call it X and Y for the moment:

Go dji.  I am alive.
Go djiX.  I die.
Go djiY da.  I kill him

The 'stop' words might prove surprisingly useful.  I don't know.
