== Is "dsar" general or Ojaveda-specific? ==
If it is a general term, then it should be added to the vocabulary lists; otherwise, not. Does someone have info on that?

==Removal of the Xacha Race==
 
As of 2011.11.01, the Xacha Race has been removed entirely from game-lore. Whilst you may think this doesn't effect you guys, I notice that you have words for 'xacha' and 'xacha man'. Rather than delete them, I thought I'd let you guys aware, so you can remove/repurpose them yourselves. - [[User:Ethryn|Ethryn]] 00:52, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
Do we need special words for the months or would since Yliakum isn't the homeworld have the Common language terms been adopted?

- Is there any basis for the diacritic sounds? They aren't present in the pronunciation page, nor are they convenient for people who don't use keyboard settings with ó, á, etc ;) -Unknown (Draklar?)

I did not add them and I typically ignore them, as it's not worth the trouble to try and get those into PS while I am chatting. -Irri (edit, I found the explanation: http://pswiki.xordan.com/index.php/Enkidukai_Language/Accentuation_Rules -Irri)

Name for months shouldn't differ too much from the Common names. The months are Yliakum-speciffic, while in Yliakum Enkidukai always lived very close to the Ylians. The names would be much rather (slightly altered?) borrowings, than cases of coinage. Further supported by the months having Common counterparts -- implies they're borrowed from the Ylian culture. -Unknown (Draklar?)

I agree on the months, though the Enkidukai would have brought some words with them for times of the year. Perhaps these are still used by the more rigidly traditional Enkidukai. They would also be remembered by the professional keepers of oral lore and culture. -Irri

new words

if you two are going to keep adding words in bulk do you think you could email them to me? Then I can add them to the reverse table with out having to look up each change in diff

thanks

English to Enkien

due to being asked by a few people I am going to try again with a reverse table.

as there were several different ways I have edited this table to follow this format for Verbs: Verb, to (verb) with alternate meanings separated by a / eg.

jede - hold, to /bear, to/ wield, to /carry, to /wear, to (verb)

To make it easier to run it through a converter I would appreciate it if additions are made in the same format.
