Good, Rex.

During the night I thought of the following suggestion, which is all it is.
Like the U... series in Lojban, and like the Classical Greek particles,
could there be a *small* set of short words to express the emotion of the
speaker (or writer), such as uncertainty, distaste, agreement, happiness,
etc., in connection with what is expressed?  Much like raised eyebrow,
shrugged shoulder, etc.
Just a thought.
