meanings from older versions of interlingua



Rick,
There were a lot of words in the Katanda dictionary (and a few in the Nasendi dictionary) that have no Latenkwa counterpart.  In some cases, the grammar has changed in such a way that certain words will not have direct counterparts in Latenkwa, such as the loss of the anti-anti-passive, or where the classifiers have been organized differently.  But in many cases, such as body parts or locatives, it seems that the words would be directly transferable into Latenkwa with minimal alteration.  Is this true?  

I'm basically curious about words you have already invented, but that don't exist in Latenkwa.
