Àwéspépémežiíltu’o. Pénálaléþuŋwésìsólèšỳtúnti. “Wrap and chill the dough. Let it rest for at least two hours.”
Today’s entry required quite a few new pieces in the language! I needed verbs for “wrap” and “chill”. For “wrap”, I created the root méé, meaning “blanket”, and then added the instrumental verbal derivation to create émee “to wrap, to swaddle”. The verb íltu’o is the root tú’o “cold” with the resultative verbal prefix.
I used the verb nále “to lie” to indicate a horizontal object resting or sitting in a location, and the adverb léþuŋo “at least, at a minimum” is based on an older preposition phrase meaning “from the base”.
I already had a word for “hour”, túnti, which is a borrowing from Finnish!
