Rick,
Is there any distinction in Katanda between old as not-new vs. old as not-young?
Are these right? E.g.,
My old friend is a young person. = Batsa lifye xansa foy byo buxansa va.
My new friend is an old person. = Batsa lifye densa foy byo xansa va.
I keep expecting "budensa" as "old" as in the first sentence.
