<p>There is more than one web page on Cadhinor. Here are the ones I
know about, in case you (Jim) miss one (though they appear to be linked
to one another, either explicitly or implicitly with "Next" and
"Previous" links):</p>
<ul>
<li>The <a href="http://www.zompist.com/native.htm">native grammar of
Cadhinor</a>, by Shm Revouse</li>
<li>Examples of <a href="http://www.zompist.com/cadhex.htm">Cadhinor
through the ages</a>; this also has Cadhinor-to-Verdurian sound changes
and derivational morphology</li>
<li>A <a href="http://www.zompist.com/cadhlex.htm">Cadhinor comparative
lexicon</a>, comparing Cadhinor words with their descendants in
Verdurian, Ismaîn, and Barakhinei (which also serves as a
wordlist for Cadhinor)</li>
<li><a href="ftp://ftp.enteract.com/users/markrose/PreCadh.doc">A
grammar of Cadhinor and Cuêzi</a> in MS-Word format; this is
marked as being "somewhat out of date" by now but may still be useful.
Also contains a lexicon of both languages if you're looking for words.
You'll probably need some of the TrueType fonts available from <a
href="http://www.zompist.com/embassy.htm#learning">the Embassy's
page</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Barakhinei only has <a href="http://www.zompist.com/bara.htm">the
grammar</a> and a <a href="http://www.zompist.com/baralex.htm">
lexicon</a> online, as far as I know.</p>
<p>Another largish problem I see with trying to learn Cadhinor or
Barakhinei is the size of the lexicon: quite apart from whether the
grammar is easy to learn or not, Verdurian has the widest vocabulary of
any described Almean languages, as far as I can tell. So you won't
always find the word you're looking for in Cadhinor or Barakhinei or
other Almean languages (as witness, for example, my <a href="328.html">
quest for the word for "star"</a>).</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>Philip.</p>
<hr><i>Mark responds:
<p>At last count, Verdurian has about 6000 words, Cadhinor about 2150,
and Barakhinei about 1450. But hey, think of the smaller vocabularies
as a challenge. It worked for Klingon. :)
