<p>OK, some executive decisions. :)
<ul>
<li> The 'stem vowel' is the <i>last</i> vowel of the root. So <b>pansyru</b>
'kiss' --> <b>pansiri</b> 'someone kisses me'.
<p>
<li>For the volitional, if the verb begins with a vowel, insert an <b>h</b>
before switching vowels: <b>adnedu</b> 'I add it' --> <b>ahednedu</b> 'I add it on purpose'. Also, don't worry about consonant voicing unless the root
begins with a consonant.
<p>
<li>The unexpected <b>n</b>'s in the paradigm for <b>pabadu</b> were indeed
typos.
</ul>
I've corrected the online grammar, and also brought it up to date with the
handful of words recently created.
<p>Thanks very much; not many people would be able to find a typo
in Kebreni!
